So much potential
We all had a great time at this quaint property, but did encounter a few problems.
The beds, even though not completely accurately depicted, were very comfortable. The only one we did not use was the rollaway from the king room closet. Honestly, the closet was very musty just from age of the house - so we probably wouldn’t use that bed anyway. The extra pillows in the closet were also musty smelling.
The house is charming in it’s historic nature, but could still use some necessary updates.
The shower on the third floor should be referred to as a half bath because the shower is unusable.
Tried to use it several times, but never had hot water. Two people out of our group of 14 braved the cold to actually shower and discovered that water ran out of the shower all over the bathroom floor! It was evidently seeping out from under the tiles. The sink had hot water, no problem, but not the shower. Very bizarre! Also a shame, because the two bedrooms on that floor are lovely.
Note that the stairs to the third floor are Very Steep!
Be careful.
All interior walls really need a good coat of paint.
Also, the outdoor courtyard could be a nice spot to hangout, but we found it was not very inviting with deteriorating cushions, no greenery, and chipped paint on wrought iron and porch boards.
Overall we enjoyed our stay and made the most of it, but not sure I could recommend until some upkeep is taken care of.
