Delightful Old Northside
We had the pleasure of visiting The Old Northside B&B this month and were delighted with what we discovered. First, the offstreet private parking area was very convenient. After ringing the bell and being greeted by the gracious host, we were given a tour of the facility. We found the Inn quite inviting, peaceful, tranquil and relaxing. We immediately felt welcome and comfortable.
The themed rooms were tastefully decorated with beautiful furnishings and the common areas were comfortable and thoughtfully furnished with extra guest amenities. We recommend this inn for a peaceful or romantic get-away. Many thanks to Innkeepers for sharing your inn with us!
