GORGEOUS, historic building. Plus the best scrambled eggs I've ever had. Robert, France and family are wonderful hosts. I can't wait to come up with an excuse to go back and stay again.

What a beautiful and cozy BnB! Every room is so unique and perfectly decorated. The bed was very comfortable and everything was very clean with several necessities provided. Check in and out was very smooth and the hosts, Robert and France were so kind, friendly, and accommodating. Breakfast and coffee were delicious. This will be our go-to place when traveling!

Excellent experience. Better than staying in a chain hotel. The woodwork and atmosphere was amazing. The hotel manager was more than accommodating. Will definitely make a point to return to this amazing place.
