The room was exceptionally clean -- no dust even in high places. Comfortable lodging. The closet was ridiculously small however. Breakfasts were very good. And every member of the staff we interacted with was very friendly and helpful. Enjoyed the afternoon wine and cheese. Located very close to shops and restaurants downtown.

The Inn was beautiful- very festive during the holiday and the social hour was just what we needed after a long drive. The only think we would have wished for was having the town stores open a little later - nothing was open after 6, but that doesn't have anything to do with the Inn.

The owner took time to talk with us about the history of this home and plans to continue to grow it’s welcoming atmosphere into the future. That is what makes it so much fun to stay at a lovely B&B…front porch conversations.

Very nice B & B. It does show the wear in places of being built in 1898. Staff was extremely friendly and courteous. The breakfast was delicicious. Only problem is 1898 Waverly Inn is located next to main road and the window and wall insulation did little to dampen the road noise which became an issue when sleeping.

Overall we liked our stay at Waverly Inn. Staff were very friendly and attentive. Location was good to walk to local stores and restaurants. Breakfast was also plentiful with good choice. Inside was a little disappointing as property looked very tired and needed refreshing. Also rooms lacked the historic charm and feel expected. However beds were great and had a good night sleep.

This inn was charming and conveniently located. But its main draw is the incredible generosity extended to guests. Lovely wine and hors d’oeuvres on the porch. But you could sit on the upstairs porch. Or the sitting upstairs or downstairs. Super helpful checkin information. And then a breakfast you cannot beat, served with kindness and attention. I can’t remember being so well treated. Many thanks.

Charming and comfortable

Exploring trip with friend. Great location & service. The reason for 1 star deduction was for 2 things…doors are noisy (expected in old house) & clawfoot tub wasn’t easy to shower in. Having said that, let me sing Heathers praises. From restaurant recommendations to tip on touring Bullington gardens she provided us with good stops. This was my second time staying here & I enjoy the front porch wine/snacks & the made to order breakfast included in room price. I would request a remodeled room next time! If you like B&B’s you won’t be disappointed.

Great stay!

Thanks for a great stay! The following things stood out: 1. Walking distance to Main Street shops and restaurants 2. The social hour! Can’t get this at a hotel! 3. Owners were friendly and there to help with any questions 4. Delicious made to order breakfast We were very aware before be booked the stay that the house is on the Main Street so noise from the traffic was expected. We also realize it is an old house but it was still very comfortable well maintained. We love staying at bed and breakfasts for the personal interaction and the “at home” feeling.

I wanted to like this, but...

We stayed in the Mountain Magnolia Suite and it needs work. The wallpaper was pealing in spots and the metal bar that held up the shower curtain in the claw foot tub was bent and that caused the shower curtain to sag and kept clinging to you. I did peek into some other rooms that were not rented (they left them open) and the bathrooms looked like they had been remodeled, so maybe they are doing this as money allows, I just wish our bathroom was re-done. They did have a social hour from 5-6 p.m. where they offered two free drinks and meat, cheese and crackers. You could enjoy them on the front porch, 2nd floor porch or in one of the lounge rooms inside. You could visit with other guests or there was enough room to keep to yourself. The porches were nice, but the street in front was busy and there was a fair amount of traffic noise. Plus there was a fire station nearby and there seemed to be one or two fire calls with sirens each day. The location was close to downtown and made a number of restaurants and shops in walkable distance. Breakfast was good and made to order based on the order form you turned in the day before.
