What a wonderful and charming home away from home! Cathy welcomed to me and gave me a wonderful tour to get acclimated to the home and the neighborhood. I was just minutes from the strand in one direction and minutes from the beach in the other. I really enjoyed the breakfast both mornings and the coffee is to die for.!! I love Kona coffee!
Being a historic building, upkeep, and repairs can be a challenge. It could use some updating and painting around the property. It was a wonderful experience and I plan on coming back!

We loved the old house vibe and the big beautiful room with a nice big bathroom. It was nice to sit in a bacony and watch the quiet street full of historical buildings. The location in the historical certer was perfect. It was easy to walk to a restaurants from there.
We could not adjust the ait conditioning of the room. It was set to a bit too cold to our taste.

Lovely restored mansion run by a wonderful concierge and staff. A free happy hour and breakfast was offered. The concierge, Aaron also gave us great historical tour of the neighborhood in the hotel's carriage.
Our bed could have been more comfortable.

Reminded me of the home I grew up in.
I had a 8:30 am meeting. I was offered to leave my bags in an open office that I’m assuming was secure. A couple who checked in after me was offered to leave their luggage in the room they were staying in until they were ready to pick them up. My room was small. I stayed there one night. It wasn’t gonna take much to clean my room before check in. I thought it was puzzling at the least that a couple who checked in after me was allowed to occupy a room with their luggage and I was instructed to bring my over night bag out of my room.
