"One Fell Sweep (Innkeeper Chronicles)" by Ilona Andrews
https://www.amazon.com/One-Fell-Sweep-Innkeeper-Chronicles/dp/1540857212/

Book number three of a six book paranormal fantasy romance science
fiction series. I read the well printed and well bound POD (print on
demand) illustrated (kinda) trade paperback published by CreateSpace
Independent Publishing Platform in 2016 that I bought new on Amazon
recently. Note that “Ilona Andrews” is the pseudonym for a husband and
wife writing team. And yes, this is science fiction, there are
spaceships, teleportation devices, and beam weapons.

Dina Demille is an innkeeper in Red Deer, Texas. Only her Victorian inn
is not like a typical bed and breakfast, it is an intelligent magical
haven named Gertrude Hunt for aliens coming to Earth or using Earth as a
way station. Dina does have a permanent guest, a retired Galactic
aristocrat named Caldenia who is hiding from several bounty hunters, she
paid for a permanent room and board.

There are many inns like the Gertrude Hunt on Earth, that is because
Earth has been designated as Neutral Ground for the various Galactic
races, many of whom don't get along. That's why Caldenia is safe within
the confines of Gertrude Hunt, the inn has many powerful weapons to
protect itself and guests. Several of the bounty hunters are still
chasing Caldenia for the massive bounty and have taken on the Gertrude
Hunt Inn to their dismay.

Dina has received a message from her sister who had followed her exiled
husband to an closed planet being used as a penal colony with their
daughter. The message was a cry for help. But, any space ship shuttle
landing on the planet without permission will be shot down. And the
Holy Anocracy (represented by House Krahr, the space vampires) does not
give landing permission to any one outside their clan.
