The Bamberg Inn

Our temporary lodging is just plain awesome.  We got the last room available, and it turns out the place is the Executive Suite.  I'd guesstimate we're inhabiting around 1000 sq ft, with a full bathroom, huge bedroom, spacious living area, and crappy kitchen.  :)  Zeke and I treasure kitchen space, but we're also not snobs about it, so we're having fun getting creative with meals in a space providing only a microwave and a college-sized fridge.

The floors are all either carpeted or tiled (fancy schmancy granite-grade shiny tiles, mind you), and the walls are all covered in a simple off-white textured material.  The bathroom has beautiful floor-to-ceiling tile work as well.  The high ceilings in the suite have efficient recessed lighting throughout, and as you'll see, the ceiling area is decorated with wooden slats in approx 2ft x 2ft squares with a tan canvas under the squares.  Really tasteful stuff here!  The windows do that cool Euro-style opening by which you can either swing them inside the room to a fully open position or just tip them inward from the top to serve as a vent.

We are very fortunate to have so much room, and we've learned that if, during the next 30 days, we have difficulty finding permanent housing (very likely -- Bamberg is in high-demand, low-supply mode, which I wish Sanford were in right now!), we'll be able to extend our stay in this place for at least another 30 days. I have a feeling we'll be slow and deliberate in our house hunting.  :)  And rest assured, we will post videos of our hunting -- it might not be HGTV House Hunters International quality, but I guarantee you our commentary won't be as banal.

Here's a virtual tour of our temporary home!
