My heart goes out to this couple who bought and are renovating an historic home with a carriage area that has been converted to3 or 4 ground floor bedsitting type motel rooms, some with & some without kitchenettes. Our hearts sank when they showed us our room-it was dark and had a strong musty smell, which did not go away with opening the windows nor turning on the air conditioner. We were given another room adjacent to the 1st one which smelled much better, no mustiness, but a slight odour of carpet cleaner or other deodorant. However there were some creepy crawly things in the bathroom area which we killed by stepping on them. Our host said they did not spray anything for odour in this 2nd room, because of the possibility of guests having allergies, but I doubt that he was correct. The beds were comfortable and the room seemed very clean, though the colour of the old couch and old bedspread did not invite us to use them-in fact we did not sit down, nor walk without slippers. The continental breakfast was simple, and we prepared it ourselves in a barn behind the hotel. The eating area was clean and primitive. There is evidence of much upgrading of the buildings being done. Our host is digging a drainage pipe to route the water away from the house, and needs to ventilate the space under the floor (this is necessary, but might not be possible) to get rid of the musty odour in the first room we were in. It is likely that the upstairs rooms (I think that there are 4) smell very fresh, but we did not see them-they were already occupied. This is a one star bed & breakfast at most. I do hope that with the changes happening that it will be much better.
