My wife did not like the bed. Though the windows opened, there was no breeze and street noises from passing vehicles continued through the night. A box fan was provided but there was no outlet near the windows so cooler air could be drawn in. Finally, I was not expecting a third-party booking fee at check-in! We liked being within walking distance of restaurants. And there was a nice garden area with chairs.

Complimentary glass of wine in evening is pleasant. Morning breakfast parfait is a nice offering; bagels, cream cheese and small basic pastries constitute the rest of the breakfast pallet. Overall the property needs refreshing, old worn torn less-than-clean room carpets, paint chipped. We were asked if we wanted room service during the day between the two nights we stayed to which we answered yes please. When we arrived at our room midafternoon, our door was unlocked, towels were changed, but beds were unmade and garbage cans unemptied. We asked reception to have the service completed and then it was done later. We had left nothing valuable in the room, but the open door surprised us. Location is good, but overall the room was overpriced. Note: no mini fridges in rooms for perishables.

Charming old property, but breakfast seemed scarce. We came down in plenty of time and there were two unappealing mini pastries. The friendly person staffing the room seemed set on offering to make a parfait, but since my spouse is lactose intolerant that would not have worked. We would have liked a bagel or toast or something? Continental breakfast is not a high bar, but the hotel seemed not to reach this.

Enjoyed the location, how close to the beach it is (2 minute walk), and the safe location. I would have liked for a more accurate description of the breakfast when booking. It was a very light breakfast (pastries and yogurt) so it would’ve been nice to know that ahead of time. Staff was professional!

The staff were amazing! They made you feel like you were in a B&B. This is a Victorian style inn. If you are looking for a Hilton you won’t find it here, but if you are looking for a comfortable inn with a staff that bends over backwards to make sure your stay is comfortable, then you came to the right place! Restaurants are within walking distance as is Lovers Point Beach. We were here for a wedding and we stretched our visit to a vacation and would definitely stay here again! Thank you staff for making it a memorable stay!

We think that they should sink some money into cleaning up the place and getting better up to date plumbing and air conditioning. You can retain the historic charm and still have it clean and comfortable. It's just old and scruffy.

Location is good. It is an old building but the fittings are cheap and of poor quality. The tap fell off the wall in the bath. Making the bath and shower unusable. The breakfast is very poor. Yoghurt, granola and fruit served in a pot and a couple of mini pastry options. No hot option and no variety. Cannot recommend this place at all.

The home is beautiful inside and out. Loved the area, very quiet and close to many attractions. One thing we would recommend, is having a small table in the room, and small fridge. The two gentlemen that greeted us on Thursday evening were exceptionally friendly, helpful, and answered all our questions. On Friday morning the young woman that checked us out, was not very friendly, and a little rude when I went to pick up the blue ice I left in the freezer of the facilities. Other than that, we loved the place!
