The a/c in the room was extremely loud. The patio outside wasn’t clean nor kept up. Had to pay for parking which they should at least reimburse for when they only have 9 parking spots and 22 rooms.

Bed and pillows very comfortable. I stayed in the cottage room at the rear of the property. I could hear my neighbours moving around next to me as well as above. I was offered a $13 food and drink voucher in the form of a pre-selected soft drink and 2x small bags of chocolate. I asked if I could forgo these items and instead have scrambled eggs in the morning which was priced at $8. This was declined by the receptionist but I was offered 2 x bottles of sparkling water instead which I declined as water was already included in the room package. I did have a lovely breakfast which is included in the price of the hotel

First impression was very good. The front desk person was super nice, and took time to answer questions and show us around. The property was very interesting... lovely old home, nicely maintained, beautiful gardens. The problem was with our room. At first look it was just fine comfortable, although a bit warm. We made sure we'd turned on the A/C and went out for the evening, and we came back to a very warm room. The A/C (a very small window unit) was definitely not working, and it was making a lot of noise. We checked to see if we'd made some error in turning it to cool, turned it off and on, but no improvement. The rest of night was like being locked in a noisy sauna. We did not sleep. We could not open the window either. My husband spoke to the front desk about the issue, and we were offered some discount for the room. All in all a terrible night here. It would seem that there were some aspects of the B&B that were not properly maintained. If you plan to visit, it's really nice place, but make sure that you get a room that has a good A/C unit.

Great service. We were able to walk everywhere. While the parking spaces at the inn did not accommodate our rv, there was a municipal parking lot directly across the street.

Gorgeous Inn, easily accessible from downtown area, can easily make your way to the edge of the water, kind and friendly staff, peaceful environment and loved the instrumental jazz music playing in the background. Not to mention, the blueberry scones were amazing! Loved it!

Very nice continental breakfast was sufficient but would be nice if there was not an extra $8 charge for bacon and eggs. It could easily be included for the price they charge for a room. Otherwise it was a beautiful place to stay and staff were kind and knowledgeable, I would go back again.

This is a beautiful historic property and given that, you can expect a few quirks. It does not have central air, but they do provide an air conditioner in the room, which can be a little noisy for sensitive sleepers. The bed and pillows are extremely comfortable. The room that I had was dated. It was hard to control the temperature in the shower and the water pressure is not the best. Being an Expedia VIP I was to receive a $13 credit. What I received were two free bottles of water which I understand were given to each guest and two little pouches of Brookside chocolate. That definitely is not a $13 credit. I would’ve much preferred if they gave me the option to upgrade my breakfast to a hot breakfast. If you advertise something they should follow through if not, just delete the $13 credit from the site. All in all, I would consider returning to the property. Everyone there is very nice, I really did enjoy the continental breakfast. I also like the fact that they have free coffee and tea throughout the day.

We enjoyed one night at the Inn. Although beautiful our room had an extremely loud a/c floor unit that cycled on every 5 minutes and lasted 10 minutes with a very, very loud rumbling. No sleep that night. The Inn was very nice, staff was very nice, great location if you like a short walk into town.
