The hosts were friendly and helpful with a warm smile and a genuine heart. The breakfasts were delicious. For an establishment that is not specifically handicapped accessible, it was more accessible than many places I’ve been. That being said if you need accessible accommodations this is not the place to stay.

Convenient last minute choice but tired property not managed by owners. Shakespeare Room, bath is private but not connected to the room. Poor guest communication. Too many contact points who did not share. Did not pass on request for GF breakfast. Told to book direct not through Expedia. (And yes it smells of weed, a lot)

Upon entering, the house reeked of weed. Being allergic, I couldn't stop sneezing and blowing my nose! The room was nice, and the hosts were friendly. The "continental breakfast" was shameful though. For the amount that this place charges, maybe offer a plate of bacon and eggs? 3-day old croissants wrapped in plastic wrap, and make-it-yourself oatmeal is not what I consider a "continental breakfast".
