We stay here whenever we visit New Bern. It is a convenient location yet away from the busiest parts of downtown (it's still walkable). The owners and staff are wonderful.

The room was clean, spacious, and very comfortable, and the staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming. Overall, my stay was pleasant, but there was an issue with the air conditioning unit that affected my experience. The AC made noticeable clicking and humming noises throughout the night, which disrupted my sleep. I contacted the gentleman managing the property, and he promptly responded, explaining that there wasn’t much he could do at the moment. I understand that this is an older building, but I was hoping for a quieter environment to ensure a restful night’s sleep. I’d appreciate any steps that could be taken to address this issue for future guests. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

John and Beth were the perfect hosts. Was able to switch room to a downstairs room that was very accommodating. Additionally, the breakfast omelet with fresh fruit and biscuit was delicious. Would highly recommend this B&B if traveling to New Bern.
