Lovely Bed and Breakfast Inn with Victorian charm. The rooms are on the second floor and the tea room is on the main level. Inn Keeper was accommodating to our schedule. We had a lovely breakfast each morning. Would highly recommend staying in this place.

This B&B was very nice with a comfortable setting as there are only 4 rooms available to rent. When we arrived at the B&B, there was a baby shower in the late afternoon and another shower on the following day. Check in was very informal with one of the assistants providing the needed information along with the room key (yes, an actual key). The breakfasts that were served were very good. One comment that we had was that we felt the owner of the B&B should have been a little more interactive in meeting the guests (i.e., asking the guests the five w's and one h). Also, the bedroom window had a moon shaped top to it that needed covering as there was an outside light that beamed into the window. A suggestion was conveyed to the owner.

Historic house filled with antiques. Coffee & tea , scones and muffins right outside our room along with a fridge with cold half & half and bottled water. Delicious cooked breakfast in a cozy and classy dining room. Friendly and knowledgeable staff members. A five minute ride to the NJ Transit bus station for a non stop ride to NYC.

Great location. Staff was very helpful and friendly. Great property if you like tea parties and other events. The description for our room indicated it was perfect for a romantic getaway. While the room was in the back of the house, we didn’t feel that it was very private or romantic. In closing it was a cute and authentic vintage home.

The bathroom has a gigantic tub and a wonderful multi head shower. The Inn itself is beautiful and has many original historic details.

Honestly, everything about the Mathis House is wonderful. The home is magnificent and well maintained, keeping its original Victorian beauty both inside and outside. My room was super comfortable and charming. The best part about my stay was engaging with the host, Vicki. Vicki went above and beyond to make sure I felt comfortable and welcome. The breakfast in the morning was hot and delicious, and I really enjoyed eating in the tea room which is decorated in old world charm. I will definitely be back. Oh, and those scones!!! Super delicious! Thank you. for a wonderful stay.
