I have never posted a review of a business before but I think this bed & breakfast is such a disappointment that I would like to save others from wasting their $175--I am sure there are other innkeepers in the area much more deserving of your money.
1. First, the room sizes are misrepresented. I was told that our room was “spacious”
when in fact it was so small that the bed was placed at a diagonal in the room so that the window and bathroom door were both accessible.
2. Second, the bathroom was dirty. There were hairs on the window sill, the baseboards,
and the floors.
3. Finally, the food was mediocre at best and the hosts were not generous. When I asked for some juice in the morning (I do not drink coffee) I was asked to wait until 830, the official breakfast time. When the juice arrived it was first, Five Alive, and then, when that ran out, oj made from concentrate that was so weak that it tasted like the water you pour into your juice glass when you are done drinking your juice. Unfortunately, this is not an exaggeration. I don’t expect fresh squeezed juice, but for $175 I did expect to drink something other than 10% juice in the mornings. The yogurt serving size in the first course was about 3 tablespoons. Guests were not given a choice of sweet or savory meals and no meat was served either morning. Sunday pancakes were bitter with baking soda. All guests at the table, including men, were served three 4 inch pancakes and were not offered a second helping. Portions in general were so small that the hostess noted during day 2 that they have “slivers” of blueberry pie and that no more was available. Luckily, the pie, as well as the apple cobbler offered the previous day, was of such low quality that even I, a sugar junky, could not eat either dessert. After breakfast the second day my husband and I actually went to a bakery after breakfast in order to get some more food.
4. Also note that this home is not Georgian but built in 2000.
