Lovely room in a lovely building. All staff were super friendly and helpful. Meal presentation and quality were excellent. Dining room and bar areas both well designed. Central location is very convenient, while still offering quiet and privacy. Nice opportunities in bar and upper balcony to meet people.

Unlucky for us that it was lashing rain for our stay over night and unfortunate that while we had hoped to dine in the restaurant, it was booked out for the night for a large business dinner. Had hoped to get a drink in the bar, but we were told we would need to enjoy our drinks upstairs because of the private event. Just a bit awkward

Beautiful building. Very clean rooms. Spa like feel to the rooms. The beds were incredibly comfortable. The only downside was that they had a live music downstairs in the evening and since our room was at the top of the stairs we could hear it quite a bit in our room. I would definitely stay again but would ask for a room further down the hall.

Beautiful historic building, with modern updates in rooms. Great location. We liked easy self-check-in (arriving late we did not want to deal with scheduling check-in in advance like we had to do several times at other B&Bs and Inns elsewhere). The responses from the host were quick and efficient. Would definitely stay here again.

We had no hot water during our stay and understood that these things happen. The issue is that we are being doubted and questioned by management after raising the concern and giving them an opportunity to make it right. The initial outage lingered throughout our stay from what seemed to be heavy demand after it was fixed. It was not a good stay and made worse by the hotels response. Asking me to diagnose their water heating system issues to justify my complaint is uncalled for. Full price was paid with the assumption it included hot water during my entire stay.
