Southern Hospitality

by kaleejane16

I never thought I would stay at a hotel or a B & B where I would be greeted in the morning with "how do you like your eggs?" That is exactly the kind of hospitality you can expect from Catherine and the staff at the Linden Manor. Upon arriving at the B &B I was immediately invited to relax on the big wrap around porch, with my beverage of choice, while mingling with some other guests. I spent the night in the basement suite which was beautiful and sparkling clean with a gorgeous, comfy bed. In the morning, I was greeted, at my convenience, with a big smile and a delicious, home cooked meal. I received all the modern amenities one would expect from a hotel but was also blessed with the charm and hospitality that only a southern B & B, like Linden Manor, can provide. Strongly recommended!!

• Pros: hospitable staff, luxurious rooms, very clean

The website advertises a B&B with 3 rooms in a Victorian home a price of $95-135. I saw pictures of the 3 rooms on the website and they all seemed very charming, so I made a reservation. It never occured to me that I should have asked which room I was reserving. As it turned out, we arrived to check in and were escorted to a basement room, not one of the three rooms that were advertised on the website. The room we stayed in had none of the charm of the rooms on the website - it was just a very dark, small refinished room in the basement - complete with temporary paper shade on the door and a wire sticking out from the wall above the bathroom mirror where a light fixture should have been. I was terribly disappointed and won't stay there again.
