My husband and I stayed here on our way to and from South Florida. It's close to the interstate but not easy to find in the dark!
It's a Craftsman-style period home with original woodwork that the owners refinished. The beds are very comfortable with wonderful sheets (hand-ironed!). There's a ceiling fan if you're warm and an electric floor heater if you're cool. Soap, shampoo, and conditioner are provided. One bathroom is somewhat larger than the other. You might hear some street noise if you open the windows. Tom roasts the coffee beans himself, so you will notice a different taste than you are used to. Our breakfast was delicious--fresh fruit to start, followed by fluffy blueberry pancakes (whole wheat or buckwheat, I can't remember which). Lots of books if you like to read! I didn't miss TV.

We have nothing but nice things to say about the owners Ila Rae and Tom Merten. They made us feel very welcomed into their B&B. The room was cozy and nicely decorated and the bed was very comfortable. We had our own bathroom with plenty of hot water. The breakfast they cook is very delicious. They have their own organic garden and grow their own fruits and vegetables. The orange juice was freshly squeezed. They also roast their own coffee beans. This B&B is more quaint with only two rooms that they book. You feel more like you are at home than in a busy Inn/hotel.
We had originally gone for a concert that ended up being cancelled but had a fabulous time anyways. They told us about places we could go see and visit, even...
