Our stay couldn’t have been better! First, it’s one of the most beautiful and unique properties I’ve ever seen, full of old world charm. Truly a unique experience. Shane was a gracious host and breakfast was delicious, a real meal not microwaved in a bag.

The room was extremely spacious (2 Queen beds, size of a 1br apartment), clean, and perfect for an extended stay (full fridge, sink, etc). The bathroom had everything we needed. The owner/manager was absolutely wonderful. Breakfast was limited but fantastic. And the property itself was beautiful. We didnt take advantage of the lounge, but it seemed very nice. I would definitely recommend this place.

This house had a suite which was great for two kids, me and my mom. Lots of room for my toddler to run. It was a slow week so my daughter and me were able to explore the whole house and see what each room looked like. My daughter loved it. The gentleman that helped us was very helpful. Helped with our stuff, gave us idea of area to walk and food ideas. He brought my daughter a roll out bed. I was also happy to see a pack and play already in our room. We even got to meet his dog which made my kids so happy. Breakfast was simple and great.

The hotel is amazing, the staff is very hospitable, and the breakfast food is amazing to wake up too. Had a great view of the largest Winston landmark building. Even with bad snowy weather, the warmth and hospitality inside definitely melted all that away in my room. Will definitely return, this is my second stay and not soon to be my last.
