Alexander Mansion Bed and Breakfast

Alexander Mansion Bed and Breakfast

10/10 Excellent
"This is the most unique property I have ever stayed at using Expedia. It is a beautiful mansion, rather than a hotel, and the proprietor, Richard, is the consummate hospitality professional. This is not the standard hotel experience. The guests are in contact with one another through the shared breakfast and communal spaces on the first floor. There is a large living room, dining room, and multiple sitting spaces. The breakfast is curated daily and it was delivered in courses, unhurried. I felt as though I was in a movie wandering about. This is not a corporate experience. The mansion is antique, updated, comfortable, and quiet. It’s probably for more seasoned travelers with an appreciation for history and gentility. Its not a place for a quick overnight stay. That would be a waste. Also probably not for children or night owls to respect the peace of the place."
