| Innkeeper Response |
Thank you for your comment about the puppies. They are a new addition to the neighborhood and we're just figuring out how they affect our guests. On the one hand, the puppies have settled down quite a bit since the first week they arrived (which I'm guessing might be when you stayed) and they don't tend to bark at night anymore. However, they are still puppies and bark some when they play, and will of course eventually be dogs, so we want to do everything we can to minimize the noise---that's part of having a B&B in a real neighborhood!
In any case, of our 7 rooms, the puppies really are only noticable in 3 rooms on that side of the house. Firstly, we have put noise machines in all of the rooms---we received an earlier comment that some background noise might help mask squeaking floors and other guests, for those that are very noise-sensitive. But we also want to eliminate the noise in the house, not just mask it. So
secondly, we are working on improving the sound-proofing in the affected rooms. Being an historic home, the windows aren't exactly designed for noise reduction--we're working to bring them up to snuff.
Polling our guests, some notice the puppies, some don't. But we want to make sure everyone enjoys their stay, so please continue to provide feedback on how we're doing.
