Bed and Breakfast was a new experience for me. Agnes was a very helpful and pleasant hostess especially in teaching me about the neighborhood stores and neighborhood subway transportation.. She kindly let me use her computer to send several messages to family; and she ordered for me a Super Shuttle on her cell phone to get to the airport. I believe that having an elderly woman as a client was a new experience for her also. She seems used to having younger people, who stay out late hours and at the apartment eat only a breakfast , which she prepares, and the rest of their meals in restaurants. I prepared my own breakfast, using food provided by Agnes, and usually returned to the apartment close to sunset because of my age and inability to get about after dark easily and prepared a modest meal for mysel from my own foodstuffsf.

I had two basic problems. First was the bathtub/shower combo. I had been led to believe that I could hold onto a pipe to keep from falling. The pipe proved to be too hot to touch. I managed to hold onto the other circular pipe that held up the plastic curtain. I will not return to Sugar Hill because of this. The second problem was the general clutter in the living room, the place rented out to another person as office space. In order to get from my room to the kitchen and the shared shower as well as out of the apartment, I had to pass through this space, often disturbing said person. I ate my meals in my room.

I reccommend this B&B but only for young people. I hope to find a small and intimate B&B with a hostess as kind as Agnes but with ammenities suitable for my yearsand needs.
