The rooms were lovely - loved the record players and the selection of LPs. The common areas were also lovely. It was so relaxing (like you were in your own home).

Hard mattress
I stayed to rest between appointments. The mattress was the hardest surface I ever experienced. Firm and durable is good for the owner. Not good for sleeping. Very difficult sleep.

The interior is spacious, bright and filled with books that beckon, objects d'art, antiques and a gas fireplace. The breakfast goodies are baked especially by a local establishment and our room was more than spacious. We had a private patio and private entrance as well. The bed was luxurious as was the bath. (great water pressure). The landscaping was absolutely beautiful and inviting. Could have stayed a month instead of a night...
