"Stayed 3 nights at this lovely B&B in a great neighbourhood. Within walking distance there are great restaurants and individually owned shops as well as MARTA bus stops and underground station (after a short walk across a park). Our hostess Adele Northrup was very welcoming. We stayed in a very comfortable bedroom with sofa, TV and garden views at the rear of the house. Our bathroom had a jacuzzi bath, shower, heated towel rail, hairdryer and all you were likely to need should you have forgotten it (from complimentary jasmine soap to dental floss!). Snacks and drinks were provided in a little basket in our rooms (fresh bottled water every day, sweet and savoury snacks) and we were told to help ourselves to beer from her fridge if we so wished. Breakfast was different every day and plentiful! Do stay there it is a wonderful place!"

"What a very nice place to stay in Atlanta. Very close to downtown, yet very peaceful. I will stay again the next time I have to go to Atlanta on business."
"What a very nice inn. The service was good, and the surroundings were wonderful. The Stone piece in the backyard was neat to see."
