The Aerie Bed and Breakfast
Everything was wonderful! The room was cozy, the inn peaceful and relaxing and breakfast was delicious. This was our first time in New Bern. The location is perfect, steps away from the Tryon Palace and a short walk to downtown restaurants. We would highly recommend staying at The Aerie.
