The place was comfy and clean. Just a bit difficult for my handicapped (double amputee) husband due to some of the layout bit we managed. Thank you for letting us experience your historical home.

Nice place.

Fitting price and great place that’s pretty accurate compared to photos. There was some sort of creature stirring in the walls all night though hard to get sleep. Other than that the place has everything you need for an accommodating stay.

Family visit

Was not at all impressed. There were no rails going up stairs. The couch was broken. Nothing like the ad said it was.
