AAA 3-diamond award

Every year, since we bought the inn in 2000 and before.  The wonderful (and very thorough) AAA inspectors crawl under beds, peer behind the toilets, and look inside light fixtures to be sure everything is ship shape (they are almost as picky as innkeeper Nancy).   Why arent we a 4-diamond property?  We investigated this. The infrastructural requirements needed to support that would  eradicate the historicity and charm of the inn.  No thanks.  So, allow us to give you 4-diamond service (heck, 5-diamond service), in a wonderful, historic country inn.
