Exceptional

Stepping back in time at...

Liked: The hotel is very nostalgic. You feel like you are taken back in time. The breakfast was great - fresh oats/granola, fresh fruit, yogurt, eggs florentine, and amazing date bread. We learned where the bread came from and made a pit stop on the way out to buy a loaf at Dudley's.
Disliked: I know the rooms are a little tight, but it would be nice to squeeze in a small bedside table or two.

Wholesome and relaxing stay.

Liked: It was very clean, cozy and the style was exactly what I’d want from a historical older town like Julian. Every detail inside was beautiful and interesting. Had a relaxing time with very nice staff and the location is exactly where you’d want to be in Julian.
Disliked: If I had to not like something maybe it’d be the flatter pillows but some people like that.

Sad Anniversary.

Liked: The first receptionist was very nice. That was the only good thing.
Disliked: The second receptionist not so nice. When I told her we couldn't stay because I had gone through breast cancer treatment it caused my scent to become sensitive, she said "ok, goodby". When we opened the door the smell was so strong of potpourri/floral scent. We coughed and it caused our throats to burn. They still charged us.

Great historical hotel. Awesome staff!

Liked: Clean, cozy. The building and interior stays with the 1890's theme. Staff was super friendly and helpful.
Disliked: No parking for the hotel. The rooms don't have TV's. But it was nice to disconnect and see people in the parlor playing games and reading.

We loved it! Definitely visiting...

Liked: Breakfast was excellent. We loved the old fashion ambience of the hotel.
Disliked: Hot water in the shower fluctuates to cold water, so it’ll be hot water then cold water then hot water coming out. That was our only gripe but it’s not a big deal

A lovely stay. The staff...

Liked: The quaint decor was lovely and charming down to each small detail. It is smack dab in the center of Julian town center!
Disliked: It’s rather odd to arrive at a hotel at 3 o’clock, when you are told to check in, and find a doorbell and ring it and ring it and ring it and no one comes for 10 minutes. Lovely Once they open the door, but sort of strange to have to wait so long on the front porch. The breakfast was nice, truly! But we overheard someone else asking for eggs and they were told they could have them and when they came to our table, my son asked for eggs and they said sorry this is not something they do. To be fair, they did come back and say actually we can do some eggs for you. For breakfast was kind of sweet and we prefer a savory breakfast but that’s fine.

Superb

Liked: the location is very accessible to the shops in the downtown, staff are really warm, the room is clean.
Disliked: the power outlets in the room is loose.
