    This was our first time staying at a bed and breakfast. We were celebrating our wedding anniversary and really had a wonderful time at the Gardenia Inn. The house is beautifully charming, we loved enjoying the huge front porch and porch swing, and with the Riverwalk just blocks away, it was the perfect location for us. We will definitely be visiting again.

    The room was large and cozy; daily maid service was quite good. The open fridge with soda and bottled water was a nice touch. John the owner/manager was availabe, friendly and helpful. The location was quite good--it was close enough (a 5 minute walk) to downtown and the Riverwalk but far enough away to allow free parking (always a problem with downtown hotels). A great value for the money.

    Great location, just a short 2 blks. to Riverwalk and 1/2 mi. walk to restaurant area. John was very helpful with restaurants and places of interest. His breakfast was very nice. We knew ahead of time that the only room available was the Lily, described as cozy, but were quite cramped - not a good choice. Check-out time was 11:30 AM, so we put the PRIVACY hanger on our door and went for a walk in the historic district. When we got back, a maid was in our room changing the bedding and cleaning even though it was apparent by open suitcases and toiletries on the sink that we were not checked out. Might stay again if a larger room was available and the maid situation was made clearer.
