I'd look forward to staying...

Liked: Location was terrific, an easy walk into the center of town. Hosts/staff were, pleasant, friendly and accommodating. I was in town visiting friends, consequently I was out and about for all of my meals.The old house is in remarkably good condition and speaks of a by gone era.
Disliked: This is not a complaint, just a comment: Although the ceiling fan worked just fine, given the unusually hot and humid weather, air-conditioning would have been an appreciated feature.
