Location: a LONG walk into town. Rooms are in host's home and it sometimes felt like we were "intruding" in their space. When other guests asked if they could have family come in and visit, they were told NO - and had to stay on the porch! When we asked for ice, we were told that it was too noisy to get it then and it might disturb other guests! We were told we could put 2 beverage bottles in the refrigerator - nothing more.
Breakfast: not great. Hostess was annoyed that we asked for more coffee
Room: comfortable. We did have to open a window to clear the room from the smell of the air freshener/cleaners used

Pleasant hostess, convenient to Harpers Ferry town center. We REALLY appreciated the phone call before we arrived telling us where to park. There had been an ice storm and the host moved his vehicle so we could use his clear spot. The only downside was watching NFL playoff games on our phone because we could not get them on the TV.

The room was very clean and comfortable. The host was welcoming and informative about the surrounding area. A nice stay for a weekend. Close to historical attractions, but in a quiet area away from the crowd. I look forward to staying again in the future.

Very friendly B&B. Great breakfast. You can walk to the historic area (1/2 hr there) which makes it very convenient , but longer back due to the steep hills. I would stay here again!

We loved our stay at the Cantuta Inn! The hosts were very nice and we enjoyed the morning breakfasts. Our room was very comfortable and the location was great! Walking distance to downtown, but also directly across the street from a cafe, a really cool general store, and a fun bar with live music that's open later than anywhere else in town!

Etel is a very sweet hostess. Our room was comfortable and the place was clean and had a fresh smell to it. We stayed Memorial weekend, it was cool and not much to do. We were looking forward to eating at the vegan restaurant across the street but it was closed the entire weekend. There was live music at the barn Sat but not Sun. A lot of places weren’t open or closed early. While there is a flat screen TVs with antenna mounted to the wall, there wasn’t any cable, so we couldn’t even just relax and in the room and watch anything for entertainment. There was a bowl of bar soaps from China in bathroom and I would suggest a local hand soap in a pump dispenser for the bathroom. There were many at the wonderful General store across the street. We didn’t stay the second night as there really wasn’t anything to do after our beautiful hike in Harper’s Ferry and lunch at a nice Thai restaurant in Charles Town. Live music ended around 4 when we arrived at Harper’s Ferry Brewing and just not much to do thereafter. One night is plenty at the Cantuta Inn and I recommend avoiding Memorial Weekend.

We had a spacious room.pretty satisfied with the location. Nice owners.Although we were OK with the B&B, I can understand some negative reviews about the amenities: we have stayed in many B&B's but this was below standard and the absolute minimum with regard to breakfast, toiletries, shower, bed, especially for the price.The owners are very nice people but they should visit some other B&B's so that they get an appreciation of the critical reviews.

Very personable host in her home. If you like to watch TV, you only have a few channels off an antenna and the shower is small in case you are not average size.
You can walk to the historic area

Very convenient location, was able to walk to historic center though the walk back was all up hill, enjoyed it for the after dinner exercise. Our room was simple and clean, our host pleasant and helpful. Loved the area and the history. My husband also is a thru hiker of the AT so it was a special return trip after many years.

Ok, everything was wonderful except for two things. Scrambled eggs with ham delicious unless you are a vegetarian. Should have checked with guests night before so that my wife and another person could have informed her no meat. Her response was " you should have told me" ?, but we did not know this before hand?? - her responsibility. Also, made her guests wait for coffee until breakfast was ready. Many coffee drinkers want their coffee before breakfast, so having to wait should not be necessary. And when requesting a second cup we felt uncomfortable and were told "you drink coffee like water". This is a really easy problem to fix. Just have a pot of coffee ready around an hour before breakfast for early risers, etc.- and let them serve themselves. We really liked the host and her beautiful home and would stay here again. Sincerely, Donna and Peter

Etel and Rock are very nice people. The place is very clean and comfortable. Breakfast was delicious. Our room was a bit tight. No dresser to put clothes in and only 2 hangers in the closet. We managed and I didn't consider it important enough to say anything about the hangers. We had a wonderful stay and would stay there again.

Very quiet, not a long walk from downtown. No children are allowed so might not be a good choice for families with small kids.

Great location and very nice rooms. Owner was just not a customer service-oriented hostess. Family members stayed in three of the four rooms and we were the only guests for one night. One couple in our group was hiking the AT and was actually told she didn't like hosting AT hikers. We all felt as if we were intruding on a private home and inconveniencing the owners. A member of our party was told one morning that we had kept owners awake though we had all retired by 11:00 pm the night before. We had been extremely conscious of our voices and had spoken in hushed tones in the kitchen as we gathered and celebrated a birthday. On the second morning, two of us were asked to leave the breakfast table as soon as we finished eating to make room for more guests who never arrived (both of our spouses were still eating!). No coffee was offered prior to the serving of breakfast and refills consisted of less than 1/2 cup. When owner was informed we were out of toilet paper, 1/2 roll was placed in the bathroom. I felt reprimanded after working on my laptop in the Florida room early the first morning as the owner informed me later her sole purpose for that room is serving breakfast. I had gone into the room when everyone in the house was still asleep and vacated the room before a single other guest had come out of their room - and before she had even acknowledged I was there. Great house with great potential - just not the experience we expect from a B&B.

Stayed just one night - but I could see staying at least two nights in order to see Harper's Ferry properly without racing around. The Bed and Breakfast is located on Washington Street, which is the main road into town, and is located at the top of the hill before you descend into the town. I walked into town, and it was a real slog to walk up and down the hill. However, I was able to stop and enjoy the beautiful and varied architecture, which I would have missed if I was in a car. I can imagine the town being quite crowded on weekends, and parking would be a problem in town, so a suggestion is to drive to the Visitor's Center, park there and catch the shuttle bus. I really enjoyed my stay, the Bed and Breakfast only has four rooms, so it is both a very quiet and relaxing place to stay. I loved the fact that there was no TV in the room. You are there to get out and enjoy the beautiful town, and there is a nice veranda to sit outside in the evening instead of watching TV. Breakfast was very good, with fresh ingredients. I really enjoyed the owner, Etel, who is a fascinating and very friendly woman. All in all, an excellent stay in a wonderful town.
