Beautiful setting located near all the tourist attractions but in a quiet residential setting. The inn is beautifully furnished and includes all the amenities you could ask for along with some delicious treats at night. Would highly recommend and will definitely return again for a stay.

Disliked: Staff & service
Main complaint is about the Grabbed and gone breakfast items gone at 8:50am. The early risers must have been hungry as items were not replenished. The kureig was really small and outdated. Person in front of me emptied it filling a thermos. Could not find a container to refill, used coffee cup. No lids for the grab and go coffee.just not up to expectations of frequented B&B. Would not book again. Overall a one night stay. Booked at the last minute and was not familiar.

Facility is very nice but would have preferred breakfast in our house instead of having to go next door. Food was very unimaginable with no sides or garnish. Just two eggs Benedict or French toast casserole with one piece of bacon. Really? Service was very good in the dining room.

Nice Place to Stay

serious fun for art history lovers, staying in a house that has been featured in an Edward Hopper painting. House has nice porch to seat on, quiet rooms, delicious pie that's set out at tea time, good system of locking doors, great walking neighborhood - overall, fine place to stay.
