When we got to town there had been some snow. Snow removal was more than adequate. Since this was mid-week we were the only people checked in so it was very quiet. Breakfast was better than the chain hotels self-serve.
The building is beautiful. The staff was pleasant. I would have liked a later breakfast option, and more variety in the meals provided. For example, fresh fruit, juice, or yogurt options would be nice.
Nice Owner and family member. The residence is centrally located in the Alleghany Mountain area. My earplugs helped overcome the 60-decibel room noise from the heating system. The cranberry coffee cake/coffee breakfast was tasty and flavorful. I encourage the owner to throw out the king size mattress. It was difficult to sleep in the two deep depressions and we arrived too late in the evening to explore other room options
i can describe the place in one word, DUMP! The entrance foyer is as pictured but the rest of the building is a run down dilapidated structure! The carpeting is old and dirty throughout. The ceiling in our room was cracked with a large hole cut in it. A chair in our room was filthy and very stained. The wallpaper was all peeling off the walls with packing tape on all the seams to keep the paper from falling off. Bathroom was no better. Sink and tub are cracked with the fixtures loose and falling off. The shower drain was so slow the water was ankle deep. The toilet tissue holder was falling off the wall. We had a fireplace in the room but it didn't work, the gas was disconnected. Breakfast was 7:30, 8:00 or 8:30, that's all. We didn't eat any day. We have traveled extensively and this is the worst place we have ever stayed in! Absolutely AWFUL!
My wife and I were on a short anniversary getaway and also a little bit of business. It was a great place to stay with friendly hosts. A grand old house but very comfortable.
The Cozy Afghan is a lovely well-maintained house. Richard, the owner, was very attentive and helpful. The room had everything that we needed and we slept very soundly.
