Not as expected

We are sorry to say that our stay was not as we had hoped for. Everything looked much more clean and fresh on the add pictures than in reality. On top we found a dead frog in the windowsill behind the bed and a cockroach walking out of the bathroom. The R&B is big and has great potential but needs TLC and a refreshment, repair of damaged

Great disappointment.... And no where to go...

We arrived any driving down a overgrown, broken up, pothole ally way. We get upstairs and there is a 13" step up to get into the guesthouse. Once in the guesthouse we noticed that the curtains were tied up into a knot. The window unit a/c unit was hanging in there with a big gap opened to the outside where air and bug could come in. The AC unit was covered with dust and dirt & the filter was full of brown dirt. The sofa was dirty, floor was nasty. Bathtub had the last persons wash towel in it. Reported it to owner and she responded about 40 mins later with thanks for the pictures, our cleaning lady cleaned the Guesthouse today. Finally she refunded the cleaning charge back. I had reported it and forwarded the same photos to VRBO about that premier host guesthouse. This was a nightmare

You can't go wrong here!

My weekend was stressful in all aspects imaginable trying to move in 2 college students in 2 different states within a 24-48 hour window. The only thing not stressful was staying at this property. I had multiple travel changes that were at times touch and go in less than an hour on a few occasions. The property manager was extremely understanding during such an uncertain and emotional time. Their flexibility with my ever-changing schedule was a Godsend and relieved so much stress. The house was everything and more. We did not want or need for anything that wasn't already readily available in the home. The shower in the "hotel" is to die for! I will definitely recommend to my friends and book again in the future!

Best Location

We rented the whole house for our daughter's graduation weekend, so that we could all stay together for the event. There were 10 of us who stayed at the house and we had plenty of room to spread out and hot water to shower with. We ate breakfasts and lunches at the house and we ate our dinners out. It was nice to visit with our families and enjoy the ceremony with everyone.

Very impressed!

I read the reviews of this property and thought most of the negative ones were very nitpicky. When I stayed at the property I realized I was right. This property is very clean and nice. I was very impressed. I also noticed that the owners had attended to every suggestion that there was on the reviews. This place could be a great place for long term stay if you need to be in Jackson for work or anything like that. The floor does slope a little but if you have a problem with that then don't book a 100 and something year old house to stay in. I thought it gave it character. The bed was very comfortable. We loved this place!

Very nice little rest stop!

Pros: Very cute little above-the-garage style guest suite, great bathroom, nice kitchenette, great space. Air mattress was easy to find and use, clean and welcoming space. Cons: Very loud small air conditioner (but effective), ants coming in around window area, bath took a very very very long time to warm up (but that was noted in the brochure/instructions) Suggestions: Stock the many empty book shelves with some games and or books from a thrift store, it would be fun to have something to do with the family at a cute stop like this. Instructions on how to use the complex shower and including laundry detergent would also be a great addition.
