- FrederickUnited States of America“Our room was larger than what we booked, and would have been sufficient for 3 people easily. House is well maintained. There is parking in front. The road is not busy at night, and even though we faced the street, our nights were very quiet. ...”
- SamuelUnited States of America“Outstanding stay! Teresa is warm, friendly and accommodating. The breakfast is incredible. Highly, highly recommend! 10 minute walk to downtown area.”
