Cozy

Lovely place, and I appreciated the hot breakfast on the weekend. The only item I might suggest is to have a mini fridge in each room so that guests can put leftovers in... I highly recommend it!

Primrose House

In general, the stay was good. The breakfast could have been better; more variety and fresher. The house needs some attending too, some paint peeling, windows need sealing or repair. The check in process was okay, but the directions needed a map, and a sign on the front lawn would be helpful.

Disliked: Check-in, communication
The house was clean which is a big plus. There seemed to be miscommunication. Breakfast was not at the house we were staying at; it was across the street at their other house. No one bothered to tell us this before we booked or at check-in. There was no Keurig Coffee Maker however they did have the pods for the coffee maker. It was just not what we were expecting.

Peace near the trails

Everything went smooth. Did not have breakfast as we had to leave by 9am and were unsure of the timing because our breakfast slip was still on the counter from the day before. The place was very clean and it was easy to find our room.

Great place!

The check in processes, although off property, was smooth and very close. The house was really nice, clean, and quiet. There were other guests and we couldn’t hear anything when we were in our room. The window AC kept us nice and cool while it was very hot outside. The hot breakfast on Sunday was very tasty and Angel (who cooks and cleaned there) was so sweet and welcoming. We ate breakfast in the dining room at one large table with another couple. A much more intimate experience than you’ll get at any hotel. We were also only 20min from Athens, and about 15min from hocking hills/Logan. Had a great stay!

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Looks like a poor part of town, did not feel safe. House was old, cracked walls, peeling paint, could hear any noise in the rest of the house. No lights on front porch (difficult getting in), no light in upstairs hallway. Had to use cell phone light to get into house & bedroom.

Nelsonville gem

We stayed here to enjoy the fall colors in Hocking Hills. The location was lovely....small town, quiet ambiance. There was a mix up in our reservation but Hannah corrected everything and we had a beautiful room. We were disappointed in the check in procedure. We had to go to a Carry out to sign in and get our key and find the B & B on our own. In our experience with B & B's, the proprietor or manager met us at the location and showed us around, etc.
