This was the sweetest and most convenient b&b!!! I booked in a hurry with little expectations and was absolutely ecstatic when I arrived to such a cozy, cute homey stay. There were fresh baked cookies and jazz playing every night! It was also so private, I never even encountered another person the whole stay even though I know they were fully booked. You check in and out on your own and come and go as you please. It was truly so lovely, I can’t wait to visit again. Thank you!!!!
