We stayed in a building off of the main house , we had our own jacuzzi-- that was the best thing about our stay... We were celebrating my friends birthday-- price was 399.00 for the 1 night-- way overpriced for the place but hey, it was getting out of Houston for the night.... Seedy location I must add..

This Inn is quite charming and exactly what I would expect from a historic B&B. Yes there are creaks and some rust on things and the bathroom is small, but I do not expect a Marriott room - the access to the hot tub is a bit strange, but I actually found the window access quite intriguing (albeit I did...

We were told in advance that every room had the same amenities. However, when we arrived and were taken on a tour, we learned that our "private hot tub" that we thought would be off our balcony (which we also didn't have) as indicated on the website and several reviews, was downstairs, across the yard and through a sketchy looking...

Bad neighborhood. House could really use some cosmetic work, wires and pipes everywhere. We paid more for this B&B than any I've ever been to and it's the worst we've ever been to! Bathtubs are in room so it's really humid for hours after a shower. Water closet is tiny and hard to sit down in. Website said our room... More
