We loved the accommodation and breakfasts. We would however say that the property was very dusty. The skirting boards, bedroom furniture and wood work in the bathroom had not been dusted for quite some time.

Suite #2. No innkeeper on property. No cell service in the area of the inn. The bed was as hard as the rock the inn was built upon. Barely any padding on top of the stiff metal springs/frame – little sleep either night. Music from the Barn behind the inn was not too noticeable. Wifi went out on second day – no way to communicate with the outside world. Furniture in common areas and rooms are “old and worn out”; not antiques. Major “dust bunnies” under the bed. Cheap curtains and wall hangings. Definitely low budget renovation. Not even a box of tissues or clock in the room. Positive: the cook, Elizabeth. She was very friendly, knowledgeable of the area history and communicated it well. Overall, the “inn” was a big disappointment. Okay if you are looking to rent an uncomfortable room for the night.

This historic inn has been beautifully restored. The chef was so accommodating about dietary issues and about fixing us a to go breakfast when we left early. There is entertainment Wed-Sun out back in The Barn. Sadly, we didn't get to hear that. There's a nice wine bar and restaurant next door.

This historic inn was fabulous. The room was comfortable and clean! This is a very unique place. Breakfast was wonderful! The chef was creative and accommodating to guests with food allergies. She was very knowledgeable about the history of the inn and Harper’s Ferry and just a joy to talk to. Loved this place!

Historic feel/decor with modern comfort/amenities. Two great restaurants and one entertainment option within steps. Not particularly close to anything else or historic "downtown" but everything in HP a short drive (or medium walk) away. Breakfast very good and if you can't wait until 9am they provided us a to-go bag so we could get going on hike to Maryland Heights before the heat of the day. Would definitely stay here again.

Nice spacious room with historic decor. The entire inn is beautiful. Just a walk down a slight hill into the historic section of Harper’s Ferry. The morning breakfast was delicious and comprehensive.

The location was excellent. The hostess was very nice. We would have preferred more of a variety in the breakfast provided in addition to service beginning at 8 AM

4/10 Fair

There was no one to greet us. The room we were in hadn't had a deep clean in a while. Place hasn't been updated since the late 90s or early 2000s. Dead bugs on dusty window sills. Doors for one closet were very difficult to open. Water damage on ceilings. Dirty baseboards, floors sticky in spots. Dirty windows. Super cheap window treatments--just not what I expected. Not a great experience. We won't be returning.

The best thing about the stay was the staff. The staff person, Megan was wonderful. The room was a disappointment. No personal size shampoo,conditioner,or body lotion. No tissues in the room. No cable tv. Would not recommend for the price we paid.

Check in was easy using key pad for entry into house with room key in your rooms door. Room was large, clean, had seperate shower/soaking tub, comfortable king size bed and had wifi/tv service. Morning breakfest was excellent with individual meals made by a chief. Property provided outstanding directions for things to see and do as well as restrurant recommendations. Easy on site parking and nice inside common area.

Great place to stay…highly recommended.
This is a wonderful place to stay. It is conveniently located near a couple excellent restaurants and a bar/venue called the Barn. The rooms are all very nice. There are several sitting rooms too. The chef provides a decent breakfast which was included. The only ding is that we stayed in a room with a very hard mattress. Our friends and family who stayed in other roles had very comfortable mattresses, but ours was not so much.

6/10 Good

The inn was nice. Just a bit off the path we were on. Easy parking. The door to the room didnt stay shut that great,with a gap underneath. The shower was good. Bed was comfortable. Wish breakfast had abit more flexibility on the time. There was a beeping sound that was coming from somewhere that was maddening. Maybe a smoke detectors battery going bad? Also here and there we would smell a not so great smell.....not sure. All and all definetly not a terrible place by any means. Just a few things would have made it better.

Excellent bed and breakfast with great ambiance and the breakfast was delicious and excellent! Easy walking to the Harpers Ferry lower level for history and the main part of town for restaurants and shops! We will be back! We were greeted by the chef when we came down for morning coffee. She was excellent! Very friendly and accommodating! Breakfast was ready at 9, and the table setting was very nice. Two nice restaurants right next door and the Barn for refreshments and entertainment is right behind the Inn! Location and private parking is excellent!
