    My two adult daughters and I stayed in the Friendship Room for two nights. The room was very comfortable, and we enjoyed our stay very much. Loved the location right in town, within easy walking of restaurants and Harpers Ferry attractions. We would definitely stay here again.

    Great place in a great place for a great price

    This was our second time in Harpers Ferry and our first time in an inn. Staying in the heart of history in an inn like this made all the difference in our experiencing Harpers Ferry to the fullest; something staying in a nearby motel just can't capture. The people were friendly, the food was good (but a little pricey), and Karen was a wonderful host. the only negative was the train whistles in the middle of the night. But we took care of that with earplugs the next night!

    Nice, But Wouldn't Stay Again

    Some noice from AC/trains and restaurant below. Expected coffee machine in room. Only 1 pillow each provided, needed more. The room was a nice size, but hard to get around bed without bumping leg. Also, there was a step going to bathroom they need to tell you about. Nice area, nice location for a B&B.
