Arivia, I was actually looking in "Volo's Guide to the North" PDF from thw wizards website and found those two inns, I was wondering if there were any other offial ones.
Mask - I like RIP, I might use it elsewhere though .
I think I'm going to go with 'The Golden Oak', just because, of the two, it is the more up scale and has the kind of reputation I was thinking of.
