Hummingbird House Bed and Breakfast
Step back in time to a slow, peaceful era of quiet streets, friendly neighbors, and an abundance of flowers and trees. Hummingbird House is located in the small historic town of Lexington, Georgia where everyone makes you feel at home with friendly southern hospitality. The house is one of three antebellum Greek Revival homes that anchor the central historic district. Beautifully decorated and sitting on ten pastoral acres in the center of town, it is a marvelous place to escape for a time away from the fast paced city life. Relax - just sit on the patio and watch the birds and listen to the flowers grow. Walking tours of the district are available if you feel more energetic. Come escape with us soon.

| Innkeeper Response |
We are a bed and breakfast home stay - not a fancy inn and always try to make our guests as welcome and as comfortable as possible.
I was out of town during this guests stay but had informed them when they made the reservation that my daughter would be taking care of them. She prepared the breakfast as I had instructed her to do. She served fruit, french toast, coffee and juice. They were there on a weekday and we normally do not prepare as much food then, as week day guests are usually in the area for a meeting or conference and will be sitting a lot or they are passing through and will be on the road sitting in a car and prefer a lighter meal.
I measured the TV in this room and it is a 19" screen. Granted, the room is 20 X 20 and it is a distance from the bed to the screen, but we have provided chairs that can be moved to any position for TV viewing.
All the bed rooms and the den have air conditioners, but the temps were low and the humidity nil that week, so we had them turned off. We try to conserve as much energy as possible because this 6000 s/f, 200 year old house eats gas, electricity, and money! We don't like to be closed up in an artificial environment unless it is necessary and the kitchen is usually quite cool in the morning. We pull air from the shaded front through the house with a large exhaust fan so there is usually a nice breeze in the hallway.
The baths are shared and there are vanities in each room for dressing. When retrofitting an antebellum house in a national historic district it is difficult to add large baths within the original footprint as is usually required.
We try to go out of our way to accommodate our guests wishes and did not mind at all searching for this guests lost property and getting it to the post office as quickly as possible.
