A Trip Back in Time
The property takes you back in time to the turn of the 19th century. Stairs and floors creak with character, the stairs and banister are a reminder of grandparent's home as I grew up. The breakfast was personally made and it was perfect.

Very nice place!
We stayed one night from trip of Arkansas to Colorado. The breakfast was good, Michele was friendly. Room very quaint and shower great with up to date. Shampoo, conditioner and body wash were a surprise. Knew it might be a challenge for my husband to climb to 2nd floor, and it was since he's had a stroke, but would stay here again.

An OK experience … certainly acceptable. But let’s be honest … this is an old house that needs repair and updating. If you like antiques, then it’s fine. However, be prepared for squeaky floors, squeaky beds, and facilities that are not are not quite up to snuff. There are only 3 rooms, and it can be noisy while neighbors are getting settled. Otherwise definitely quiet and away from the hubbub of I70.

Best place ever!
This place is amazing, I’m not sure who the two people are who gave it a 9 but… I’d like to say more great things about this place but I’m afraid if I do then it won’t be my little secret anymore.

Second time in same room.
Forgot to order the breakfast the night before. Last time I stayed in the same room, there was yogurt in the fridge. Like that it's walking distance from Gella's.

Great stay
Great alternative to a hotel on a long drive across country. Fresh made breakfast works great unless you want to hit the road early. Close to good food and beer

We found this property and saw the reviews as well as the reasonable price so we went ahead and booked it. Wow! It was better than expected with easy parking, walking access to a nice brew pub and the best breakfast anywhere! The breakfast with other like-minded travelers was pleasantly unexpected. We will be back!

Beautifully restored and updated Victorian in the heart of Hays. Wonderful staff and service with delicious made-to-order breakfast. Lots of amenities including a binder detailing historic profiles of the namesake of each room. Glad we found this gem through Orbitz. Already made reservations to stay there again on our return trip.
