The room and house were wonderful. I do recommend small cork disks under the tubs clawfeet and the bedposts to protect the floor and less sound when the tub expands. There is left handle on the Southwest window that should have new screws applied as well. Overall the room/stay was fantastic! Though we did wonder if we could have bought bath bombs or bubblebath there because we had forgotten to buy some at Walgreens.

Spectacular, immaculately maintained historic mansion. Suite (Vermillion) was on the 3rd floor, so pack light and/or have a pack mule Billy goat to carry your belongings. Well worth the climb. Spotlessly clean, historic details, the most comfortable bed and pillows, huge bathroom with Vermillion green tiled shower and massive sink. Huge closet with fridge and microwave and plenty of room to store luggage and coats. Could easily get accustomed to early morning coffee and pastries in the sunroom or on the front porch. Though the mansion was fully booked, we only ran into one other guest during the 3 days of our stay. A remarkable place to stay and will return again and again!

Had to take off shoes at lobby, then walk up to the 3rd floor. This was apparently to preserve the the wood floors, but i was kind of puzzled, because they were of very ordinary quality, with no inlays, or anything distinguishing about them to speak of. A map or directory at the lobby would've been nice to direct us to our room, which turned out to be on the 3rd floor. The room was nice, as was the bed. Breakfast was mediocre. Pastries were something that you would get from a 7-11, and the coffee was basically colored water. The cappucino machine was broken, so it's not like there were a lot of options. The main rooms downstairs were magnificent. Lots of ornate wood and metal work(floors aside). I missed the human touch that you would get from a regular B & B.

Loved this mansion! What a beautiful place. Self check in which was new to us. The room was spacious. Fireplace, large bathroom, beautiful decor. Whole mansion is very clean and exciting to look around in. Breakfast consisted of Coffee, tea, a variety of fruits and baked goods. Perfect for us as we don’t eat much in the morning. Would definitely stay here again
