Pros
Mary, the host, is praised for her warm hospitality and knowledgeable local advice.
Breakfasts are homemade, varied, and delicious, with options like scones and gluten-free granola.
The location is close to the mansions, Cliff Walk, and a free bus stop, yet in a quiet neighborhood.
The garden offers a peaceful outdoor space with a small waterfall, tables, and chairs.
Rooms are large, clean, and feature comfortable beds, with some including a jetted tub.
Cons
The top-level Sun-lit Suite lacks a shower curtain and has a slow-draining tub, which can make showering challenging.
Some guests may find the old home noticeably musty, and rates can be high (e.g., 3 nights cost over $900).
