My wife and I had a good stay here at the tail end of the season. The only issue I would raise concerns the bed. It was a double so not ideal but the mattress was sagging and made it difficult to sleep well. Other than that it was really good.

The property is a former church converted into a B&B! Host and staff were very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was excellent. A few blocks from the center of town but still walkable. On-site parking was a plus. Slightly on the pricey side. Television and hot water for showers were tempermental

We loved our stay here! The location was perfect—just far enough from the busy city center to feel peaceful, yet still within easy walking distance of shops, restaurants, and activities. Breakfast was outstanding and such a refreshing change from a standard hotel continental spread. Having a freshly prepared meal served to us each morning made every day feel special from the start. The owner was friendly, attentive, and truly went above and beyond providing a level of hospitality that exceeded our expectations. It’s clear he genuinely cares about his guests. Highly recommend!

We enjoyed our stay! The staff were very friendly. Lynette was so helpful when we checked in and gave us plenty of options of things to do in places to eat. Our room was very clean and spacious. The inn was very quaint and well maintained. It was our first time staying at a bed-and-breakfast and we thoroughly enjoyed it. I hope we will be able to come back.
