After reading all the glowing reviews my wife and I were looking forward to our stay. We arrived and the first thing the host did was ask for our credit card. We are veteran B&B stayers, and it is rare that they ask for payment as soon as you... read more
Innkeeper Response
I am so sorry these guests had such an unpleasant stay at our Inn. The room they chose is one of our smallest rooms and does have a full size bed and curtains on the windows. I ask for the credit card upfront because many of our guests leave while breakfast is being served and it causes a disruption for others. I would have been happy to supply more body wash or other amenities had they asked. We use a thin toilet paper because the heavier types often cause the toilets to back-up, which is an embarasement for guests. I was not aware of any telephone charge. Guests are free to use the in-room phones for any calls at no charge. I always ask about dietary issues and always ask about meat preferences as a courtesy. I have many guests who prefer not to eat meat even if they tell me they have no dietary issues. I do not try to save money on breakfast and we pride ourselves on our quality, variety and quantity of our breakfast. I do plead guilty for monopolizing the breakfast conversation and apologize for doing so. I am truly sorry that this guest found their stay to be so unpleasant. We do have rooms of various sizes with full, queen and even king size beds at a variety of price points. I would be happy to offer this guest a complimentary stay in one of our king size rooms if they would be willing to give us another chance.

We came here twice a year to celebrate our anniversaries and to us, this inn is a treasure! Even though it is local, we feel as if we are far away for a romantic getaway. It is cozy, delicious, romantic, yet comfortable- Home away from home! read more

The smell of fresh baked goodies, soft clean sheets, cookies in the cookie jar, conversation, if you like, kick off your shoes, put your feet up, take a nap, put a puzzle together, work or just do nothing. A wonderful, filling breakfast - your home!

All the refreshment of a getaway, yet close to shops, a park and small museums of interest. Also close to attractions in Ann Arbor. Chris was very helpful in making suggestions of places to go. Breakfast was excellent. The room was inviting.
