    Had an unforgettable stay on vacation, everything was very good. The amicable staff helped us during visit. The location was favourable, a 10-15 minute walking distance from an art museum. Plus, it was short walk to museums, and L. May restaurant.

    Charming Stay with Delicious Breakfast Options!

    Our recent visit was good! The historic charm captivated us, and enjoying freshly baked blueberry muffins and gourmet waffles at breakfast was a highlight. For a nice experience, try a room with a fireplace. Don't miss local dining spots just a short walk away.

    beautiful park
    charming choice

    central haven for exploring parks and local attractions

    The bed and breakfast is a charming choice, conveniently situated just a short stroll from the beautiful A.Y. McDonald Park and a good 15-minute walk to the National Mississippi River Museum and Aquarium were great.

    delicious breakfast
    unique decor
    friendly hosts
    uninviting exterior
    lack of modern amenities

    Breakfast was a feast for the senses- a delight! The homemade treats were great, and chatting with fellow foodies was hella fun. The house oozes character, with its beautiful Victorian touches and charming owners!

    Don't get me started on the exterior. It looked like a horror movie set! The clawfoot tub was a quirky charm, but come on-no showers? That's retro, but not the posh vibe I was hunting for.

    homemade breakfast
    family-friendly location
    challenging stairs

    The breakfast was a highlight, with fresh quiche and homemade treats, made our mornings special. Plus, the location is fantastic, with attractions like the National Mississippi River Museum nearby, even with a small baby.

    In my wife's opinion, the stairs were quite challenging for our family. It would be great if there were more accessible options for families with young kids.

    cute atmosphere
    uneven entrance steps

    A hidden gem inside!

    Wow, stepping in here feels like traveling back in time! The decor is fine, filled with history. Breakfast was great with super fresh coffee cake straight outta the oven. But, those steps outside? Kinda rough to get up. Still, once you're in, it's all good vibes and comfort!

    I can't say enough good things about this adorable B&B! The hosts were accommodating. The breakfast was a good spread with quiche, waffles, bacon, and fresh baked goods. The entire house is beautifully decorated and full of history. I loved chatting with fellow guests during breakfast.

    No significant negatives to report.
