    The location was wonderful. The staff met every one of our requests. We especially enjoyed the art work that decorated the inn. Breakfast included a wide variety of items to choose from ... all well prepared.

    Worst B and B experience ever. Total misrepresentation. Moved us from our booked room (so they wouldn't' have to heat it) to their "best room". The "best room" had no heat, no working room phone and no wi-fi. Entrance from parking up their terrace walk was like walking down a city street full of uneven payment like potholes. Handling made oh one inch pipe. All-in-all worst of the worst for the money and I feel cheated and robbed. Don't trust what they tell you. Validate and verify.
