Pros +
- the staff are all exceptional in every way
- It's unique. Private bedroom with a shared living room and kitchen area in an old home.
- Great accommodations and location. Bed was super comfy and room was clean.
Cons -
- the internet is unacceptable, so much so, I nearly canceled the last night. pages don't load, and often completely get dropped. I think the owners get the lowest internet service. a new roiuter did not help.
- You do great a lot of noise from other guests due to the nature of the hotel.
- I didn¿t experience this, but friends had quite a small room that they were not comfortable in. I think the room size/ style may vary.

Room quite small; private bathroom across the hall
Everything. Location, staff and ambiance
It was very clean and decorated beautifully. The staff was exceptional!!
The room we had was right next to the dining room and front door. Was pretty noisey at times. Would stay there again, but upstairs.
Small, beautifully decorated, wonderful food, great staff.
The room was beautiful, the staff friendly and genuinely warm, location excellent. The food was superb.
Personal touches and excellent quality.
Staff were a mixed deal. Seemed like some people knew what was going on and did very well others didn't. Some interactions left us will a feeling of uninviting, kind of cold.
Superb inn with wonderful staff. The rooms are beautifully decorated. We ate in the restaurant and found the dinner to be absolutely delicious - a wonderful chef.
the upgrade
This was one of the best priced bed & breakfast buys you could ever ask for. They raised the bar so high I can't believe we will ever be satisfied by anywhere else. I highly recommend for anyone's stay!
Breakfast was good. My husband and I both had waffles. French press coffee was good and the setting was lovely.
Breakfast was lovely-service exceptional . They ran out of avocados midweek so no more avocado toast!?
Room very cramped but first floor as requested. Chairs exceptionally uncomfortable so could not remain in room to read!
Lovely old home, now used as an inn.Located close to downtown Camden.The manager was very helpful.
Wonderful location near the very center of Camden, charming building and grounds. Friendly, warm, capable staff. Beautiful room. Delicious breakfast!
Very well maintained. The perfect size to make it cozy but offer everything you need or want on site. The restaurant is the cherry on the cake, with a really nice menu offering and great wine list. Steve is enthusiast and knowledgeable.
Centrally located
Dirty rug on stairs. Bad smell in room. Awful breakfast. Old bread minimal avocado on toast. Worst avocado toast and pancakes ever. Felt like hospital food. Very surprised!
The charm. & staff. We usually do waterfront if that’s available but because Camden is a small town where the waterfront is easily accessible it wasn’t an issue. The staff was so kind & accommodating. The breakfast was delicious!!! I had my fav: avocado w/toast & yogurt w/granola was amazing. The potatoes need some revising. The rooms although small were beautifully decorated. Mobility may be an issue for some. It’s a beautifully decorated BNB & I would definitely come back again!!! The staff should get recognition from management, bc without them you wouldn’t have bookings. I was a bit hesitant to book bc the pics on the site didn’t represent the beauty of the place. Also it didn’t showcase the breakfast as it should have.I also was hesitant bc I usually don’t book with no cancelation but I took a chance & am I glad I did!!! Very satisfied with my stay.
I wish there was a later check out but I understand
