Everyone we spoke with was very kind but we were very disappointed that we weren't in the main house. The listing wasn't clear enough - so we had no idea that we would be in the carriage house. Once we checked in, I went back to ABnB to see what I had *actually* booked and the wording is just ambiguous enough that I had no idea we wouldn't be in the mansion. Plus, the only listing pictures were of the mansion, so I had no reason to think that there was anything else. The carriage house was still very cute and comfortable (though much less formal), but there was a 2" gap between our bedroom and the room next door!!! It truly felt like we had a room mate - we heard EVERYTHING - every text message, cell notification, movement, conversation, rustle of clothing and bodily function imaginable.
We wanted to LOVE this place and read amazing reviews, but the lack of privacy made it the opposite of relaxing. :(
