Your group is safely on the northern side of the river. You see the ferryman tie up the vessel, carry the set of oars with him to a stone hut, and disappear within, without making another glance at your party.
It is almost dark now, so Froskan uses his gem of brightness to light your way. The path goes up a slight incline, and intersects a road going east-west. There is a sign pointing west, labeled "Greensville". Going west, after 15 minutes you come across a guard hut, with two lightly armored guards huddled around a small brazier fire. They stand up when you get closer, spears held upright (but not threatening). "Halt! State your purpose and your destination." (Sounds like a traditional guard greeting.)

Reverie didn't say anything but nods at the guards that Trimyrai's words are correct. "It is true. My companions are tired from so many incident on the way. So, please allow us to stay at an inn."

The guard recognizes the look of adventurers. "The closest tavern, and the one used for most travelers, is the Portly Warthog. Continue on the trail, look for the two-story building with a pig on its sign. One gold a day (per person) will get you a room and meals (dinner, breakfast, lunch). It is comfortable enough, and safe."
(Looks at most of your group.) "If you are looking for something cheaper, take the first left after the Warthog, and keep walking. Less comfortable, and we get complaints about items being lost. Not much we can do about thievery in that part of the town, so you've been warned."
(Notices the bearing of Reverie.) "If the Warthog isn't classy enough, take a right. There will be no mistake when you reach the part of town where the fancy folk go... Not sure why someone would want to pay that much more, when a bed is a bed, and a meal a meal, but I guess that is what makes them fancy folk."
They settle back their fire as your group walks on. (If you wanted to ask more questions, I'll roll back the timeline.) Walking on, there are small buildings, mostly with windows shuttered and "Closed" signs at this time of night. After a few minutes, there is a significantly larger building, the only two-story building you've seen so far. The sign matches what the guard described. (Think a painting of "Porky Pig", but with hairy bristles and tusks.) The entrance area is well lit, and you can hear the sounds of a tavern crowd.
(Your group can go in, take a left, take a right, or continue straight.)

On entering, there is a greeting desk manned by a male Goliath, with a very soft voice. "Greetings from the Portly Warthog. I am the night manager, named Axehandle. You can call me Handy." To the right is a dining hall + bar, which has over a dozen travelers and locals making the noise you heard outside. Handy offers you the inn price, which is the same as what the street guard mentioned: 1 GP for a room through tomorrow afternoon + dinner/breakfast/lunch. (Five rooms available, clustered together.)
"Before you enter the dining hall, I will arrange for basins of hot water and clean cloths to be sent to your rooms. Tomorrow morning, you can ask the day manager for cleaning and tailor services." He is reacting to sweat-soaked travelers (fast march for several hours) splattered with dinosaur and manticore blood.

Froskan also nods his thanks and hands over a gold. As soon as he reaches his room, he grabs a cloth and heads to the basin of hot water to start wiping off the dirt, sweat, and blood as much as possible.
Reverie smiles gently as she nods and gives a gold coin to the night manager. It was a rough day indeed since they had to fight against the dinosaurs and then the manticore. ”I will see you all later at the dining hall then.” She says before she enters into her room, and then immediately heading towards the basin of hot water to wash the blood off.

(OOC: Should mention that the street guards and Handy asked for your Nunkreet IDs. They would be more suspicious if you didn't have the documents that Bommie provided.
The room and food almost at the "comfortable" level from the PHB. Definitely better than iron rations and sleeping on rocky ground.
Up to you guys if you want to discuss the 3 items in post 852 and your next adventure plans over dinner of lamb stew and local beer, or you can have the long rest and discuss it over breakfast. The inn is safe, so no troubles this night.)

Once she comes out of her room after finished cleaning herself, Reverie walks towards the dining hall and takes a seat for a drink and food. Then, she looks around the atmosphere of this place at the moment.

(i imagine it would be awkward if we had dinner in silence.)
After Trimyrai bathed and put on the clean clothes provided, he went to the dinning hall to start eating. Seeing Reverie, he decides to sit at the same table as her.
Trimyrai: (to Reverie) "This is much more relaxing than being out in the woods."
Reverie shifts her gaze at Trimyrai as soon as she heard his voice around the table. "Indeed it is," she replies with a chuckle, "It is relaxing to see people around here. Of course, the woods could provide another relaxing moment but it is more of a mysterious place since you'd never know what you are going to face." A pause. "Are you feeling well after the fight?"
