As a solo female traveler, I felt a little nervous walking around the neighborhoods directly around it at night, but overall I felt super comfy and at home there, and loved the room so much I added on an extra night to my stay! Really appreciated how close it was to everything I needed, from shopping and restaurants to nature, the beach, and all the activities I was looking to do. The staff was lovely and very accommodating, and I really enjoyed my stay here! ##### Jessica Stayed 1 night in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Anabelle 21 May 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities The staff was super kind and accommodating and the room was lovely. ##### Anabelle Stayed 1 night in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Howard 16 Apr 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Quaint Victorian house very proximal to the Boardwalk, easy check in and check out.

She was very attentive to our needs and accommodated us in any way she could. She made check in easy and gave us the lay of the land. The house is beautifully restored and the location is walking distance to the beach and downtown. If you want an experience opposite from something large and corporate, this is the place to stay. ##### Stacy Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Gregory 15 May 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great people and great location!

We loved our stay here! I so enjoyed the history of the mansion which made it so much more inviting. The coffee selection in the am was good, but oh how we wish we had been offered some kind of danish rather than those prepackaged bars. Otherwise a 5/5! ##### Grace Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Caesar 17 Sept 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The hotel was nice very comfy and cozy very clean and I loved the jetted tub will likely go back again ##### Caesar Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tristan 5 Jan 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Warm hospitality, and cozy rooms with unique charm.
