The Amos Shinkle Townhouse has ceased operating as a bed and breakfast inn after nearly a quarter of a century of providing outstanding service and accommodations for visitors to Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky.

Former innkeeper Bernie Moorman wants to thank all of the guests who've helped to make the experience gratifying and rewarding.

"But it's now time to move on to new pursuits and adventures that do not demand arising at 5:00 a.m. and greeting arriving guests at midnight," Bernie explains. "I guess I finally have to yield to common sense and recognize I'm not getting any younger.

Again, thanks for your support over the years. And feel free to drop by and say hello whenever you're visiting the area.
