Thank you!
We stayed for a few days at Richard's House. We enjoyed our stay very much, the breakfast was vast and delicious. The owners are very friendly. We stayed in the bedroom that you can see in the photograph, it is large and very comfortable with a very nice bathroom. I highly recommend the place. It was cost effective!

8/10 Very good

Really old house. Room was very comfortable and spacious. Bathroom was one floor down and the stairs were very very squeeky. I felt the whole town could here me on my way down in the silence of the night. Owner is a bery nice lady, checking in and out was very easy.
bora, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

What an awesome experience. The hosts were very nice and the breakfast was outstanding! A comfortable room with a nice bed and linens. The exterior is under remodel and the temporary wooden steps were a little uneasy to comprehend. Some updating to the insides needed as well but it looks like a wonderful place being reborn. A great experience.

David, 4-night trip

2/10 Poor

Yeah no! Wanted to like it but just gloomy and scary. Curtains so dirty. Moved a chair and in the spot it sat all the stuffing fell out on the floor??? Outside was scaffolded and dark. Not a place I would stay again!

This is a hard review to write. The place was very interesting. The hosts were awesome. My problem is that I have asthma and I’m allergic to cats. I had a hard time breathing with the dust and animal smell.

Unprofessional a horrible experience the way they treat us I would never go back to that place
Antonio, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Don't let the exterior renovation and scaffolding keep you from discovering this place. Like an oyster, the exterior gives no clue to the pearl inside! What's inside is a well preserved 19th century mansion. Nine different kinds of wood, nine unique beds, fireplaces abound, unique wall coverings, and stained glass throughout (even in the rooms pocket doors). Decades long owner/proprietors give an excellent Bed & Breakfa experience!
Chris, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Beautiful home. Very clean and the owner was so nice, giving me a short tour of the rooms and the house itself. Had a great stay and would absolutely stay again.
Virginia, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The property had a lot of character and I’m sure when the renovations are completed it will be even more gorgeous! The antique furniture, light fixtures etc. only added to it’s charm. The couple running it were as sweet as pie and the breakfast provided was absolutely delicious!
