Ms. Ren, Innkeeper

She has been called “outrageous”, “funny”, “a great cook”, and “a natural story teller”….

However, Ms. Ren would prefer to hear your story and let you decide whether she can cook worth a hill of beans. One more thing, Ms. Ren has a husband, “Mr. Doug”. Now that he has retired from a real job (haha) you will be seeing him more often also.
