Can I trigger The Inn at the Crossroads, draw 3 cards, choose an opponent that already controls another copy of The Inn, and fail to give control? Even if there is another opponent (in melee) that does not control a copy?
It is my understanding that the effects "draw 3 cards" and "give control" are not dependent on one another, so I can trigger the ability and do as much of the effects as possible. Also, it seems an opponent that already controls a copy of The Inn is still an ineligible target, because there is no rule that would say otherwise, correct?

Yes, this works. Any opponent is an eligible target for The Inn at the Crossroads’ ability. If that opponent is unable to take control of The Inn, the ability will still do as much as it can—you will draw 3 cards and The Inn will remain under your control.
