- Dennis“Atmosphere and History of the building. Welcoming staff and comfortable lobby setting. Enjoyed the wine happy hour and relaxing by the fireplace.”
- Melissa“Our room was clean and bed was comfortable. The area was beautiful and great location. We were on a motorcycle trip so after check out the staff gladly kept all our gear safe so we could walk around for the day before we left.”
- Ron“For a B&B/hotel on this level it is a bit surprising that a bigger breakfast is not offered. There is of course coffee and tean, but besides some apples and muffins, there is nothing else. It will be nice to have a variety of other breakfast...”
- Linda“Beautiful grounds. So clean. Vintage updated. Loved the lobby coffee, beverages & fruit. Loved the butterscotch candy in the lobby as well. The room was so quiet👍🏼”
