very nice location. The people working there very nice
my room was not properly dusted. I have allergy’s to dust and dusted my self. I did not feel comfortable bringing to their attention at the time of my stay. The glad partition in the shower is not clean. I will stay there again and hope that it is better cleaned.

The B&B was beautiful and the hosts were super accommodating. We are gluten-free and they made sure to offer a wonderful breakfast for us. I loved sitting on the front porch to read!

Marissa was a warm and welcoming host, explaining all we needed to know about our stay, giving great recommendations for what to do on a Sunday in the off-season and serving a delicious full breakfast. Property is immaculate, well maintained and tastefully furnished. On a girlfriends’ getaway three of us stayed very comfortably in the Franklin suite. As a bonus when asked, Marissa allowed us to be introduced to her two sweet small dogs - sheer joy! Oh, and on arrival we were greeted with grapes, cheese and a chocolate pastries of some sort, scone I think - we’d just had lunch and didn’t indulge! What not to love!

Location location location!!! Comfortable, Beautiful quiet street close to all you need in Cape May !!! Beach shopping, restaurants. Bikes, beach towels and chairs provided 👍
Staff not paying attention to certain things like expiration dates on beverages. Breakfast was delicious but no choices. I’m not a rich snob and I know things are tough but if you want to charge top dollar per night. You have to step up to the plate.
