Description

The Canterbury Inn Apartments are housed on the second story of the historic Jacobson Building above Avol's Books at Canterbury, a mere 40 feet off lively State Street.Chaucer's Canterbury Tales provides the main theme for the apartments. Each features an exquisite mural painted by Madison artist Nancy Lee, depicting episodes from the travelers' tales six centuries ago.Where else can a booklover slumber beneath scenes of Chaucer's raucous tales, then peruse a favorite novel while soaking in a whirlpool — Mozart wafting softly on the air. The built-in bookshelves and elaborate hand-painted detail in every apartment reflect the attentive Old World motif found here.
