Charming hotel in prime location. The coupon for a free beer at the Ratskeller really enhanced our experience as did sushi at the restaurant right there. Would definitely recommend staying there and we will be back.

The Oliver Inn is a unique place to stay. We were in one of the hostel rooms and even though it is a shared Bathroom, there were never any issues when we needed to use it. We loved the convenience of the bar on site and the restaurant. The location downtown is fantastic as well. We would definitely stay again. Thanks!

It was good, clean, and nicely decorated. The Oliver Inn has much more character than most hotels, in a good way. The rooms are nice even without windows, as it gives the illusion of having windows.
