    What a disappointment that such a beautiful home had every little detail thought of except the most important thing -- the demeanor of the innkeepers. The reserve on our arrival was disappointing; but the overt coldness the next morning (particularly by the wife/breakfast chef) was something my husband and I had never encountered in a B&B. So, all in all, I would caution inn seekers to consider why they select one B&B over another. Yes, for us, the ambiance is always critical; but the nature of the inn keepers will make or break the experience. In this case, the experience was not just broken -- it was shattered -- by the unwelcoming attitude on the part of the owners, which during breakfast, extended to everyone at the otherwise elegant dining room table. So, would we recommend this B&B? Unequivocally not. What a shame.

    Our room was about what we expected, nice and clean. Everything was a bit creaky, which should be expected in a home this old. The breakfast really stood out. It was absolutely delicious and filling. I would return for the breakfast alone.

    Hotel was nice although Eureka had a run down feel about it. Probably least enjoyable stay on our road trip.

    Everything was very nice. My coworkers and I had a long work day before arriving and called to let the innkeeper know we were showing up late. He made arrangements for us to get our keys. Very easy to work with and a very nice stay.


Tell the innkeeper that sent you.
