Short on expectations.

I should have heeded the September 2016 review. The owner was very pleasant but too many shortcomings from the property and service. The property definitely needs some polish to fit the B&B image it tries to portray. The room itself was fair but very bare bones. Breakfast was ok; we simply ordered omelets (and no sausage, bacon, etc.) but were told that all they had was cheese. I guess only one omelet could be made at a time but it took over an hour, and we were the only customers. Pretty costly for what you get. Beware, no cell/internet service.

Sperryville area hotel

The hotel is definitely dated and needs quite a bit of updating. Internet is only available in about a 40 foot range in the main building. The lady running it is the owner. The husband apparently had a stroke somewhat (maybe) recently so she appears to be handling it a lot on her own which is admirable but quite a lot for a lady of her age to deal with. The "gardener" also apparently broke his leg recently so the garden and yard were overgrown. The room was old with a loud room a/c unit and the fireplace boarded up for the summer. The breakfast which we were sort of counting on, given previous reviews, was also a disappointment. She asked if we wanted a 9am breakfast. We asked if we could get it at 8:30 so we could get hiking early and she had no problem with that. When we arrived at 8:30 she hadn't started anything yet so we sat down and waited. I believe we finally got served breakfast between 9 and 9:15 which but us a bit of time behind schedule for the day. She's a very nice lady but it's too much for her to do. We did see a for sale sign when we turned in to the property so I guess they're trying to get out of it altogether, which is probably good.

Lots of character near Shenandoah

Definitely not an exceedingly fancy place, but very clean and comfortable. The proprietors are a very sweet older couple who make you feel right at home. The breakfast was amazing and we enjoyed being serenaded with Neil Diamond songs by Frank as he cooked (even though we aren't really fans of Neil Diamond). If you're down-to-earth, open-minded and enjoy a unique experience, this is the place for you! If you're looking for the five star treatment, you should look elsewhere.

Decent Stay

Breakfast was great, the owners are unique & it's a decent option to be close to Old Rag & nearby wineries. Rooms are not updated, but were clean and generally alright.

I really liked the scenery around the property and the inn keeper was very friendly and nice to us. I thought it had an overall comforting atmosphere. I loved the bedroom set and decorations in our room as well.
