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.

It was okay.
Pros:

The antique furnishings add to ambiance but there is a very old smell that comes with them.
The windows were not clean and the fridge froze my half and half.
The sheets and the bathroom were clean. The location was good too.

Charming, well-appointed, tremendous views with great restaurants nearby.
Pros:

View of harbor from room was amazing. Very roomy, with table and wing-back chairs set up to sit and view the boats on the river. So many details attended to that made the place quaint, homey, and comfortable. Even the dishes were real china from the past.

Cons:

Not a thing.

A pleasant stay at a charming Victorian era home.
Pros:

Really enjoyed staying in an elegant Victorian home. Location was great. The air conditioning unit was a much appreciated and there was no noise to speak of - very quiet during our stay.

Cons:

A couple of the lightbulbs were not working, which in the dark was a bit bothersome. Thought they could update their comforters on the bed.

We love coming here to stay. The quirkiness is what makes it fun. We had a great time visiting and.
Pros:

The Keirug coffee was a bonus. The location and view are the best.

Cons:

The placement of the bed was off. It's an old (which we love) Victorian house. So the floor slants downhill. The bed would have been more comfortable if placed in downhill direction. It also is looking like not as much maintenance is being done. Bathroom cabinet door coming off hinge. Window blind on door is tearing in pieces. This is not to discourage your stay. But to help management
