We found this inn on the internet, and it sounded good, so we booked without seeing it first. When we entered the dark cluttered living room entrance, a strong stale smell was the first thing we noticed. After getiing settled in our upstairs room, we discovered our closets were also used for Inn storage, and debris littered our floor. We... More

Very friendly owner, she was chatty, attentive and asked what we would like for breakfast the evening before. The room was a good size, clean and nicely decorated. The breakfast was amazing, it just kept coming! Would definately stay here again

I stayed here with my family and couldn't believe the other reviews - yes the innkeeper is very chatty (since when is that bad? Would you rather a silent ignorant person?). The rooms were clean and tidy, she told us beforehand she would be turning our beds down which didn't bother me at all (can't understand the people moaning when... More

Our stay was horrible. We booked a room for our anniversary, and the innkeeper kept talking and talking to us. We weren't there to make friends. The room was dirty. I had to get a sanitizing wipe from under the sink, because the toilet seat was filthy. There were hairs in the shower. Don't trust the glowing reviews that are... More

Breakfast was amazing, as were the fresh jams that the innkeeper made. The flowers outside were beautiful and if you go in early summer, you can get fresh apricots in the yard. The bed was not as firm as she made it out to be, so I ended up with a sore back. A decent walk to get to downtown... More

I don't know if I can convey the experience in words. I will say the food was good. But the innkeeper was really into oversharing. We checked in about 5 and by the time we left at 7 we knew far too much about her, her experiences, her family, and other guests. It went on like this every time we... More

The innkeeper was quite nice and the breakfast she fed me was delicious (if three times more than I needed, considering I was the only one there). I came in around 6 pm, so she turned down my bed as she showed me the room. However, she threw all the pillows onto the bench, which was the one surface where... More

The food is great, and thats were the good part ends. The rooms were average. The inn keeper made the stay unpleasant. It almost felt like we were staying free at someone's home, instead of staying at a relatively expensive b&b. We do not recommend.

In all the years of staying in B&B's I have NEVER had an Innkeeper strip the linens from my bed while I was still in the room getting ready for the day! Nor have I ever encountered an Innkeeper who reused plastic water bottles. "Green" ? No - just cheap. The tacky unsealed reloaded water bottles provided for guests certainly... More
