Nice location and clean. Beware the beds are really soft and the pillows over stuffed. It was tough to sleep in such a great location because we were used to firmer beds and softer pillows. BUT WE WOULD DEFINITELY STAY THERE AGAIN.

What a beautiful Victorian home. Very welcoming. Snacks and coffee were available downstairs. I was given a free upgrade to room #3 with a fantastic king bed and fireplace. There were great big towels, lots of hot water and great pillows. This property is in within walking distance of downtown right on the main street. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a really neat vintage Victorian home.

Great location

We had a great stay. Our room was large and comfortable. It was a little odd that we never spoke to anyone, but I have never stayed at a Bed and Breakfast before. The bathroom was interesting, but i really liked it. It was very convenient to downtown as it was NYE and that was what we were looking for.

Excellent service! Although the property is undergoing a painting restoration, this did not interfere with our parking or the stay in any way. This is an adorable bed and breakfast location and well worth the value. We were traveling through town for a trip and stayed one night in a queen room. When we had arrived the weather had turned cold and the room was colder than expected. A quick text message to the staff and the brought in extra blankets and a heater! (because the boiler had not been fired up yet) I was amazed at how quiet the home was. I would stay again!
