"A really great location if you want to be a short walk from the Pearl Street Mall. It’s a B&B so every room is unique and historic. The rooms are dated, but that’s expected in a historic house. Parking is available for $25 per night. The buffet breakfast was above average. Clean and comfortable."

8/10 Good

"we had a bit of a problem figuring out why the ac kept going up to 78º at the hottest part of the day. finally figured it was preset. after that we figured how to adjust. the first couple of days were very hot. otherwise the house was perfect for a weekend stay for a wedding. great part of town. parking the car in the little tight driveway was challenging but we figured out quickly to get everyone out of the car in the middle of the street and then pull in!"
