Mike, Becky and Elizabeth were all very nice and helpful. In anticipation of our visit, Mike was very delightful to deal with and helped set up a private tour guide for our visit to the battlefield. He also made reservations for us at the Dobbin House for dinner which was excellent. The inn was very quaint, well-decorated, and a pleasant place to spend a few days. Our room was cozy and comfortable. We couldn't have asked for more. The location is also very convenient. It was a bit too cold to walk anywhere in the town, but we could see where a lot of attractions would be within walking distance. If you're going to be in Gettysburg, definitely give The Gaslight Inn a try. You won't be disappointed.
