Response from the owner Ha Ha don't shoot me , I'm only the piano owner ( Elton John ref.) Jess and the family took great care of the old place and her mom was delightful. would have them back anytime and will go find a music student to fix that damn instrument. Must add that a backdoor upstairs exits the second bedroom onto a landing with straight stairs going to backyard, which is best for suitcases. The original Master Stairwell was demolished back in 1942. Amy and Luca

Response from the owner Hailey and co.really flatter us. They respected the house and all the home stay rules and are super friendly. We are sorry that we did not point out that there is a back door exit on the second floor which leads from the second bedroom to the Backyard via a normal staircase. Anyway, we highly recommend these folks and hope they come back for seconds. Amy and Luca
