10/10 Exceptional

This is a wonderful, remarkable inn/bed 'n breakfast! Everywhere you look there's beautiful woodwork and glasswork. The staff is very hard working and the breakfasts they create and serve on weekends (only) are generous and delicious. The next time we visit, Amy said I could come to the kitchen to watch how she makes the best, moistest and fluffiest scrambled eggs I've ever had! The place is a wonder... and what you see on the websites is what you get!

Breakfast was very good. The room needed to be cleaned better as there were dust bunnies under the bed. Enjoyed being able to sit in the living room.

My husband and I have never stayed in a B&B before. We had a wonderful experience with the Old Library Inn. Our room was decorated beautifully, and very clean. The bathroom was especially immaculate and the linens were soft, fresh and plentiful. Breakfast was fresh made to order and delicious. I felt very relaxed and comfortable in the living room area and kitchen. A wonderful stay and I will be back!

We were ready to give it a less than positive review, the room we were assigned had a bathroom out a door and into a stairway, not accessible from the bedroom, not a good situation. I called the hostess and voiced my objections and about 45 minutes later received a text moving us to a different room. The bedroom they moved us to had an onsuite bathroom so we were very happy with the final outcome. Very responsive. Would definitely stay at the Inn if ever in the area.

I didn’t read all emails so on me but didn’t realize that there wouldn’t be staff to check or let you in. Nice clean

6/10 Good

Overall the home is beautifully restored and my stay was worth the price paid. The check in process was confusing (no voicemail or answer), but thankfully we connected as I arrived. I stayed in the Jane Austen room which had a private bath accessed in the hallway. The bathroom needs significant updating. The lock did not work so I didn't feel comfortable taking a shower, and other guests used it even though it was supposed to be private (water bottle left on toilet, toilet not flushed). Another guest was hosting a big party on the front porch when I arrived which was very awkward to navigate through back-and-forth from my car. I also suggest bringing eye covering because the room is bright at night. The Inn is not staffed which seemed strange for a bed & breakfast, and breakfast is only served on weekends. However Amy, the owner (?) was welcoming, the bed was comfy, and the air conditioner kept the room nice and cool. It was also conveniently located to the SBU campus.

The room was the nicest room we've ever had when we have stayed places before. I loved the older feel the place had too. Great location, great place to stay.

Hotels misrepresented the property stating a made-to-order breakfast was provided, which was not. We had 2 other properties we could have chosen but picked this one based on the reviews. We were misled and don't feel we got what we paid for.

It was a cool historical building that was very nice inside. We had the down stairs room it was spacious but the carpet did smell a little old and musty. I would stay there again in a differ room with no carpet in it.

Breakfast is only served on weekends but items are available for a light breakfast of cereal, breakfast bars, coffee, tea, etc. One of the towels was torn and frayed. The shower head was non-operational. It's very difficult to contact the inn by phone since there's no voice mailbox set up. The inn is charming and I'd stay there again.

Lovely old Inn. However we are disappointed that there is no longer breakfast available during the week and the price actually increased.
