Historic charm.
Pros:

You walk straight into a Victorian-era parlor. The whole place is full of historic charm ... with over 50 board games and card games tucked away to play with.

Cons:

The antique bed was a bit hard to adjust to.

Easy and fun
Pros:

Easy location to get to. Friendly staff and the games on the 1st floor were fun

Cons:

I got a scammer contacting me on WhatsApp several times to use my cc. I called the hotel and they were aware of it and told me not to engage as they had been hacked recently

It was a much need escape from the world.
Pros:

Bed was very comfortable; room was clean and the heating system for the room was very much in character for the history of the facility.
Breakfast was beyond excellent.

Cons:

As always, little things could always be better. So no, I will not make any comments here.

A wonderful historic bed and breakfast place in the middle of town.
Pros:

This is an historic hotel from the 1890’s Gold Rush days. It is lovingly maintained and clean. The rooms and bathrooms are tiny because that’s how they made them back then. The manager and staff are friendly, accommodating and informative.

Cons:

Zilch.

Quaint.
Pros:

Very clean and fresh. Staff great.

Cons:

Definitely NOT available to those with mobility issues. No ramps, small entrance and bed so high too high a step stool should be provided. Limited seats in bedroom to sit other than high bed. A bit pricey for the experience.

Pros:

Very very clean. The beautiful decor of the lobby, dining room , the game and relaxing corner, the bedroom and front porch- all of it ked to relaxing and really feeling like we were on vacation in another era!!!!

Cons:

It would have been nice if there were a handicap ramp to get to our first floor room, from the sidewalk/street.
