Pros:

Attention to details

Cons:

The outlet for the heater was loose from the wall. Needs to be screwed into the mount.

It was great for a one night stay! Cute old house closes to town!
Pros:

We liked that it was close to town where we could walk to most things!

Cons:

Too many homeless people in the area made it loud at night time. Also if too many people are in the house it can be loud with talking and doors closing. Bed needs new mattress that doesn't sink in the middle.

It was a room with a bed, a glum balcony, and a coffee set up in the bathroom.
Pros:

I have stayed here a few times and enjoy the charm of the old home and decor. I miss the b&b set up.

Cons:

I was not stoked that the coffee station/microwave/ fridge were all in the bathroom… that did not feel sanitary at all. We were also kept up late on both nights due to the neighboring guests. It seemed like a few young children were booked alone in the room next to ours with parents staying elsewhere. They woke in the middle of the night crying for extended periods without anyone checking on them to calm them.

Disappointing
Cons:

Was not informed about # of stairs to get to second floor
Refrigerator door would not shut completely so ran all the time
Little heater did not work
TV eat the DVD I put in
Wouldn't come out or go in all the way
Room very cramp
The place just fell short of achieving what goal they were trying to reach

Nice place, would probably stay there again.
Pros:

Nice off street location so it was reasonably quiet. Nice large room, river view, excellent water pressure.

Cons:

Difficult to find our room--their numbering system for the room numbers is really odd and difficult

Quaint, Quiet, Cozy!
Pros:

Cool place. Quaint. Quiet. Thoughtful amenities. Off the beaten track but easy walks to restaurants and the pier. Had the third floor room.

Cons:

Futon instructions were not very helpful. But finally wrestled it into a bed. Not a big deal!

Kinda funny
Pros:

Short walk to downtown Astoria. Good location. Very quiet. Large bathroom with clawfoot tub.

Cons:

Utensils, plates, and kitchenware all in the bathroom next to toilet. Rodents fighting on back porch. Broken blinds. TV was extremely small, basically unusable. Sex stain on one of the chairs in our room. Ugly decor.
