  : The property is beautiful. Outside deck, gardens, pool. Spacious house and grounds. Lots of rooms for guests to spread out and relax.I really enjoyed meeting other guests at breakfast and swapping life stories.Hostess / innkeeper was very nice and accommodated requests. I asked for a light blanket and got it. Special diets were honored.It was no problem at all sharing a bathroom with another room, especially since thick cotton bathrobes were provided. Loved having a sink and mini-frig in our room.
  : The breakfasts were disappointing. The main reason I choose B&Bs is for the normally delicious breakfasts. Here, Everything was served cold and the fancy dishes (frittata, dutch baby) were tasteless. After three days I was longing for plain, hot eggs and pancakes.The house is full of antiques, which are comfortable, but rooms are dark and a little stuffy. Some conveniences were lacking that could be easily fixed, such as lights bright enough to read by (the Chauncey room is very dark); closet hangers and/or hooks for clothes; counter space in bathroom for cosmetics, clothes, and glasses; and racks or other flat surfaces for luggage. We had to leave our suitcases on the floor.

  : Location was quite convenient to the desired area. The house itself is a fin de siecle gem. Breakfast was very good.
  : As an old house the stairways were challenging and the separate bathroom could have been more convenient. (Down the hall and on a different landing) shared with another room. (No ensuite facilities available)

  : Unfortunately, we had many stink bugs in our room. I understand they were all over CT, out of anyones control but it was uncomfortable looking at them crawling along the walls

  : This was a great 19th century house with a fascinating history and period furnishings. The covered back porch was a totally enjoyable experience for breakfast each day.
  : AC was inadvertently turned off our first night on the 3rd floor and due to our late arrival was endured until the next morning when we mentioned this.

  : Andrew served my breakfast early since I needed to be out by 7am. He didn't have to do that and it was the best part of my stay.
  : I booked quickly on Bookings.com ("last room available at this price!") without checking the details and understanding that I was playing $250 but didn't have a bathroom in my room. I wanted comfort and privacy much more than quaintness, library and music room, so it wasn't a good fit for me (and had I been more careful I would have figured that out before staying there).
