Well maintained historical house, so many interesting artifacts inside
Not really
Location was great. Wish we’d had more time to explore immediate environs.
We had to change rooms to downstairs due to air conditioning issues. We moved to the boat room which was large and roomy. It was a bit too bright when sleeping due to outside light reflections.
I would suggest broadening the breakfast offerings to include items that work for folks watching their sugar levels.
Excellent stay with outstanding communication from the host, who provided very clear and helpful instructions via email before arrival. Instructions, guidance, and useful touristic information are thoughtfully placed throughout the house, making everything easy and enjoyable. The rooms are very clean and well maintained, and the whole house has a warm, welcoming vibe and atmosphere. The house itself is truly special—staying there feels like living in a museum, full of character, history, and unique details. The location is excellent as well. Highly recommended for anyone who appreciates authentic places with a story.
Beautiful facility, room very comfortable, quiet, used kitchen equipment for Christmas dinner.
Did not see the owner. I think you need to greet and welcome all of your guests!
The house was very clean and generally comfortable. It was also peaceful despite there being other guests in the house. I was there to visit my daughter who attends ASMS. The location was perfect for me because it was so close to the school. The ASMS Winter Formal was being held the night of my stay. My daughter wanted me to take some pictures of her and her best friend in their dresses before they headed off the event. The house ended up being so cute that we took pictures there before heading off to the park she wanted to go to.
The bed in the Catherine room was too firm for my personal taste. I also found the room to be too cold, but the easily accessible extra blankets provided a solution to that. I don’t know about the rest of the house, but the WiFi signal was very weak in the Catherine room. My phone couldn’t even find the network sometimes. I also had my Chromebook with me and had trouble loading webpages.
Extraordinarily furnished and charming decor.
The only ghosts were the owners/host. There was no personal contact with anyone else living from check in to check out.
Remember this is a byob stay. That's Bring Your Own Breakfast. The the instant oatmeal was stuck inside the packages and the grain bars undated. The instant expresso maker did work well tho. But this is not the place for the true B-N-B experience. Not a value for the nightly price. Overall, would not stay here again.
The house
Location
Beautiful neighborhood, yet close to the government center and the entertainment district. Perfect for walks.
Beautiful house, comfortable rooms, lovely neighbourhood! Clean. Hearty and toughtful interior.
Arrived in the evening, we couldn't get into the room with the code we got, but i reached out to the caretaker and she helped us from afar.
We had to figure out ourselves, how to pay when we wanted to check out. (because there was no staff on site)
But these were only minor things, we had an amazing stay :)
This place is beautiful! And everything was comfortable and clean.
The parking is tight. Be careful if you have a full size truck, but it’s so great and we just used Uber so not a big deal
It is cute and quaint. Very historic, wonderful to have a private bathroom in such an old home. I am not sure about the breakfast I did not take advantage of that.
Really need to install hand rails on the front steps. I almost fell and my sister did fall and slammed her chin into the brick steps. The wooden steps are slanted and warped and not properly up to code. Need thicker curtains above the bed in the Catherine room- the light comes pouring in. The faucet in the shower twists to the curtain or the wall and is hard to keep from flooding out the window sill or the floor. Dripped all night, I had to put the faucet head down in order to stop the dripping. It is an old home but everything I had with me smelled super old after staying one night, carpets need cleaning. No rating for staff, as I never saw any.
Beautiful home
No TV in the room, toilet flush was slow, wifi slow.
There were a few what appeared bums near the home which had me a bit nervous.
