Pros: Our hostess was as good as they get. She knew the city, inside and out. Her recommendations, suggestions and directions, we're spot on!
Quaint 1860's B&B, located right on the river and a short walk to downtown. If you like talking to the local residents, I can't recommend Bridgeview highly enough. I'm glad we stayed 2 nights.

Pros: A very relaxed stay and exceptionally comfortable. The breakfast room was light and airy and tastefully set out. The whole property was spotless. I did miss there not being a kettle in my room, however I did have a single room, and although roomy enough, there wasn't suitable space for one. However, you could make tea or coffee anytime in the breakfast room! The hosts were very friendly and helped make the stay a most pleasant one. Plenty of parking, quiet location and can walk into town.

3.3 Mediocre
Pros: Nothing - apart from the location.
Cons: I didn't like anything about it - the place was a dump. It was dirty and unwelcoming - if I hadn't paid in advance (and it wasn't so late at night) I would have walked away as soon as I got to the door. Looked in the front door to see mattresses and laundry bags. Room was dirty - duvet covers were stained, bathroom sink as cracked, carpets in the stairs and the room weren't clean and the place smelled.
