    The sleeping nook was great for me, but my husband had to work at not bumping his head.

    Ease of contact-less check in, comfortable bed and room amenities including view.

    A couple of the lightbulbs were not working, which in the dark was a bit bothersome. Thought they could update their comforters on the bed.

    Really enjoyed staying in an elegant Victorian home. Location was great. The air conditioning unit was a much appreciated and there was no noise to speak of - very quiet during our stay.

    The placement of the bed was off. It's an old (which we love) Victorian house. So the floor slants downhill. The bed would have been more comfortable if placed in downhill direction. It also is looking like not as much maintenance is being done. Bathroom cabinet door coming off hinge. Window blind on door is tearing in pieces. This is not to discourage your stay. But to help management

    The Keirug coffee was a bonus. The location and view are the best.

    Directions for entry came later than expected (day of). That led to some stress. But ultimately it worked well. It is too bad that a grand old house is not available for a family, though.

    Nice view and good location. Walkable to downtown Astoria. Small kitchenette was useful.

    very slight mildew smell to room. if you are OCD, that angled bed and clawfoot tub tub might drive you nuts :-) but, fine with us. all the door lock codes annoying. i did find the email you sent with the codes on my desktop after i got home, not sure why it didnt appear on my phone.

    restored victorian era home. front and rear parlors were nicely done, altho we didnt use them. quiet, everything worked. outside porch would be nice in summer, good views of the city. easy to walk to many restaurants and the Liberty theatre. bed was very comfortable. bathroom roomy, heat pump quiet and efficient, easy to set temps.

    The location was a bit noisy in the early morning hours. We could hear what sounded like a street sweeper, trash trucks very close and a crew trimming trees nearby. It may have just been the particular day were there.

    The location was great and there was plenty of street parking. Liked the room and the decor, very comfortable and cozy. The common areas were very charming. Lots of clear, good signage, we could find everything we needed.

    Towels smelled like damp / mould - we didn’t use them. Can hear other guests but it must be hard to soundproof such an old place. Would’ve been nice to have use of the deck / balcony area.

    The spooky old-timey vibe was very cool. There are some really nice touches you can tell the people who own / manage it have taken care with it. Bed was very comfortable. Great location. Manager was helpful when there was a mix-up with our room.

    I had the attic room. The blinds behind the bed were broken and I couldn’t close them so there was light from the street all night. Both sets of blinds could be more opaque for better sleep. Pillows were also very flat and could use replacing.

    Quaint and vintage and a bit quirky. Parking wasn’t any trouble.

    The walls were very thin. As a light sleeper, I was woken up when another party came back to the hotel and started playing piano (??). The floors also creaked when they walked around. Again, mega haunted energy, which contributed to keeping me up after hearing these noises lol.

    Nice spot for a one-night stay. It's walkable to the business area in town, with a comfortable (if small) bed and charming eclectic vibe. That said, it has mega haunted energy, which could be a pro or a con, depending on your vibe. Astoria is also an amazing spot to stay if you're driving the coast — the town is full of local businesses with a lot of character, rather than the kind of desolate resort vibe of Seaside.

    No elevator and stairs are steep. Good hand rails though. A/C- heater unit in my room fan ran all the time (maintenance person is checking out unit per note from manager) Became white noise to me, but could bother some people. Water pressure in shower was OK, although could be inadequate for long dense hair. The clawfoot tube is period perfect- however it can be hard to get into for persons of limited mobility.

    A Victorian home updated with modern features while retaining the period feel. The down stairs sitting room was particularly delightful. There is no staff at house. All entry codes to building and room are by email. Works well. Bed was great even though rooms are small as is typical of homes of this era. However, the bathrooms upgrades provided plenty of space and a clawfoot tub/shower. There is a balcony on some rooms, sadly hard to see the bay due to other buildings. It is reasonable walking distance to main commercial street, although it is a bit of a climb back up. Plenty of parking in church lot next door.

    Need railing on all stairs. While there was a fire extinguisher present, only one way out in case of fire. Should be a ladder present to go out the bathroom window in case the third floor stairs are blocked.

    Loved sitting in the big window with two comfy chairs watching the ships come in and out. Cute and quaint, good use of attic space. We loved the space!
