A great escape for those looking for a getaway from city life. A beautiful historic house with quirks and charms. The owner Laureen is very kind and personable and always delivers a delicious warm breakfast.

The proprietor was friendly and informative! The location was wonderful. Convenient to all restaurants. Room and common spaces were clean and comfortable. All of all of the lovely antiques and paintings were fascinating. Just a wonderful place to stay. Will plan to come back again.

I posted a review last night. However, I wanted to add the fact that the property owner seems to be doing “her best”. She was very friendly and personable. Even though the accommodations were a little more rustic than we expected or are accustomed to, we got by just fine. The Catskills are a beautiful part of the country.

Large room, shared bathroom, Bed and Breakfast
Antique Rose Inn is a 3 bedroom bed and breakfast, in a historical house. All three rooms share 1 bathroom, this was a surprise to me, so wanted to make sure you know. We stayed in the king bedroom and it was large. The breakfast was good.

We are sorry that you did not enjoy your stay. Please let us know what we can do to improve our service by e-mail. We allowed the service dog without him being crated. We allowed a 10AM breakfast time so you could sleep in which led to a later checkout. We recommended some locations to visit in the area where you took some gorgeous pictures and videos. We even took pictures of you in front of the house with your friends. We made tea/coffee in the evening for you where you ate in the dining room. We even allowed use of the microwave and kitchen. We cooked breakfast to order for all four of you. The weather is beyond our control although Sunday turned out beautiful so you were able to enjoy breakfast outside on our wrap around porch. We thought that you enjoyed your stay based on your comments in the guest book. So we are surprised to see such a review.

For the price it’s poor value. Old house with subpar maintenance. That the bathroom is shared by 3 rooms with many guests is not stated upfront. It’s a big downside. Breakfast was ok. Nothing to write home about. Host is way too chatty with little substance. Overall 4 out of 10.

Next time please read the description carefully as well as the confirmation. This is why we allow a one hour cancellation free of charge in case your reservation is not what you expected. We live on the premises and check the bathroom frequently. People come and go at different times which usually is not an issue for most people. Also, there are sinks in the rooms allowing people to wash up, do their teeth, hair, makeup, shave, etc in the room thus freeing up the bathroom. We are not a hotel or a restaurant. We offer a complimentary, hot breakfast with limited choices to Eggs either scrambled, over easy or sunny side, choice of pancakes, French toast or homemade waffles, served with fresh orange juice, coffee, tea and hot chocolate. Hot and cold cereal are always available. Everything is homemade and prepared fresh.

We are usually renting apartments with kitchenettes to avoid having to eat at restaurants. Thanks to the superb breakfast the owner served and her generosity to let us use her house to eat takeout food for dinner we enjoyed good food without having to cook and spending the money for an expensive apt. The owner made us feel very at home and we enjoyed our stay.

If you don’t mind the host’s creative and obscure political views, then you should be ok. Personally I was a little uncomfortable and disappointed. Agree that host is friendly and very talkative but there were topics that were offensive and very off. Not what I expected on vacation. Also agree that the shared bathroom for all guest (up to 8) is not clear on listing. Description is a little confusing.

We are disappointed to hear this response. We clearly state and show pictures of the bathroom on the listing. It's even listed on the confirmation as we are told it is. We personally don't see the confirmation but other guests have shown us. That's why we give a free one hour cancellation period on all reservations. We live on the premises and maintain the bathroom while guests are out to dinner. Please read your confirmations.to make sure that the stay will meet your expectations. Our prices are based on the size of the bed and room. It includes a full, hot, country breakfast, color cable flat screen tv's, AC/fan units for the rooms. We are also lower to mid line priced for Windham based on the number of people. Our beds are top quality, pillow top mattresses with an assortment of pillows for every type of neck for comfort. Towels are color coordinated to match the room so it's easy to distinguish whose towel is whose. If you have any other concerns, please feel free to contact us by e-mail or phone. Thank you.
