The third-floor Bracy Room is too small for the price—no table, chair, desk or wastebasket. Also, no water in the cold tap at the basin (the shower was fine). The bed was comfortable. As expected, the floorboards in an old house are creaky.

There was no information provided on how we were supposed to check in, on how Room Service worked, on how the Dining Room operated nor ANYTHING on accessibility! I have 1 Bad Knee, 1 Artificial Knee and 2 Bad Shoulders and had to walk up 2 Flights of Stairs with 2 sets of Luggage into a Dormered Room that didn't have enough space to use to use the Bathroom comfortably. Our Trash Can was overflowing & we never had Maid Service for the 2 Nights we stayed there.

My stay.

No sink in the bathroom to brush your teeth. ROKU tv cable sucks. Noisy room air conditioner. Third floor room with NO elevator. Tough for older people. But, an excellent old building and breakfast shop.
