Tim is awesome! He also went well beyond to help us get checked-in comfortably when our cellphones suddenly stopped working that day. We appreciated our stay in this vintage painted lady and enjoyed watching the trains on the bridge go back and forth and the tug boats take barges up and down the river. The views from our Rotunda Room were sparkling through the very clean original curved glass windows. Fresh blooms in a vase on the table :) If you don't mind stepping down the hallway to go to the Room's large private bathroom, you may also enjoy a relaxing hot bath in the roomy and long cast iron tub! Comfy bed :) Other than the trains rumbling at all hours, and the comforting sound of the occasional humm of the boiler somewhere close to the room, it was quiet. A variety of places to eat within walking distance too! Be prepared for the charm, and recognize that large vintage homes may someday not be as easily accessible and maintainable for lodging. We hope this one keeps on for years to come. We loved our stay, and appreciate Tim and all that the home offers. Go for it!
