The staff was pleasant. The room was passable. Understanding that it was a hotel room near Salem near peak Halloween activities, I get that things are more expensive, so that is on us. I don't feel the room was anywhere near worth the cost associated with it.

Overall, we enjoyed our stay very clean & the suite was a nice layout. I was a little taken aback by no elevator as we were on the third floor. My husband had to carry our luggage up the two flights of stairs. Also, we had to use the back entrance as the front wasn’t available which wasn’t terrible but when taking Ubers it would be nice to go right out the front doors especially at night.

Lovely room with a comfortable bed and Roku access to watch TV on a rainy morning prior to our departure for Salem tours. Breakfast healthy options of three kinds of granola, two kinds of yogurt, variety fruit cup and a variety of breads and muffins… coffee tea or water. Plenty of parking and a short drive to a variety of restaurants. Salem is only a 10-15 minute drive away

Liked: Cleanliness
Front desk staff was unprofessional and not welcoming upon arrival, which we found weird at a bed and breakfast. It's a very old place, as are a lot of the options in the area, so we weren't surprised to find some quirks. However, there was no dead bolt on our door which had a gap in the top of about 1/2inch. Disconcerting to say the least! Other than that, the room was spacious, the bed was comfy and there amenities were well appreciated! The breakfast in the morning was wonderful with fresh cut fruit, yogurt and granola to balance out the heavy fare in Salem.

We stayed for one night after exploring Salem. After hours check-in was easy. Convenient parking. Rooms were well appointed and comfy bed. Wonderful dining just down the road—highly recommend the Elia Taverna for dinner.
