Property Description

Built around 1890 as a boarding house for lodging middle mine management, this building has seen many uses. Although most of its life has been spent as a boarding house, this Jerome building served as an ashram as well as a restaurant in prior years. The building went through a major restoration project in 1994, 2003 and again in 2014. From the Victorian elegance of the Verde View Room to the rustic feel of a north woods cabin in the Northern Exposure Room the owners have made each room special and inviting. The building still carries some of the uneven floors and original beadboard ceilings. All our rooms have private bathrooms, Direct TV, ceiling fans, and air conditioning. From the front veranda, you will witness the surrounding splendor of old Jerome, the Verde Valley nearly 2000 vertical feet below, and the breathtaking views of the terraced red rocks of Sedona.

Pros:

Excellent views from the front facing rooms and easy walk to town. Fun decor throughout. Like many historic buildings it’s a bit creaky and noisy but they have earplugs.

Pros:

It's hard to park there. The directions were done unclear about parking. Keys are missing tags. The instructions are too wordy to safe on human interaction. Too much to follow up. I couldn't find a switch in the room, there is no fridge Bad shower, tiny, uncomfortable. Hard to understand which is shanpoo and which is a shower gel. Didn't get a spooky vibe just neglected

Pros:

The place is really old and neat and they’ve done a great job keeping it looking classic. The rooms are very small so I personally wouldn’t stay for many nights but it was great for us for one night.

Not my favorite place to stay.
Pros:

First, circumstances changed and we needed to cancel one of the two nights. I called 12 days ahead and they wouldn’t worth with me. The room was cute but very small. The bannister on the deck was so worn that the corner posts were held up with wood blocks. There were a lot of “don’t do” in the instructions.

The Best!!
Pros:

Absolutely perfect in every way: amazing walkable location, easy check-in, stunning views, lovely balcony and so beautifully decorated with fascinating art and antiques. And quiet!! Like staying in a historic jewelbox of a home, but with a renovated bathroom: we really appreciated the glass and tiled spacious shower and TVs in both rooms. Such incredible care and Love went into renovating this B&B and made our stay totally awesome!! Also, no apparent ghosts, which was a plus ;)

Ghost City Inn
Pros:

The Inn was so cute and cozy. I love all the lace and the special artifacts of times past within. There were so many cute trinkets of the old days within, the lobby had constant old time music playing. The people helping run the establishment were very accommodating and I loved the room atmosphere and decor. The only thing that worried me was the fear of damaging the expensive unique quilt on the bed or my hair dye coming off on the pillow cases. I was thinking maybe they should have a black pillow case for those with colored hair since I ended up having to sleep with a towel under my head across the pillow all night. I do love the inn it was so special.

Stability Stressor
Pros:

The first thing I want to make known is that all rooms at the hotel are either on the 2nd or 3rd floors. We took our 75-year-old parents to Jerome while they were visiting from PA. I would have never booked a 3rd-floor room for them, we were stressed every time we went up and down. Also, the stairs are not stable or even, another stressor.
The hotel should not be called a Bed & Breakfast either, they only offered a few blueberry muffins, sausage fritters, and a little fruit with coffee.
I just expected a little more construction stability and breakfast.
