  : Excellent location. Sweet house with all the amenities we needed.More than enough to sleep a whole family.I plan to stay here again.
  : My only complaint is the master bedroom ac was too weak in April... we were sweating and I had to sleep without covers and with the windows open.A better or more than one ac should be invested in, in my opinion.

  : Location was great to restaurants and downtown. Nice and quiet section of town. Easy access to downtown or the highway.
  : A/C was not adequate. Upstairs ac did not kick on the last night there. Kitchen and bathroom sinks should be updated. Some furniture was broken and unsafe to sit in.

  : The location was great, with a couple of good restaurants within easy walking distance. The area was quiet. The house was very clean and well stocked with everything we needed. The host was very responsive, communication was wonderful.
  : None of the bedrooms were dark enough. Only the main bedroom had shades on the windows, but there were no shades on the French doors out to the deck off the main bedroom. We had to hang a sheet over the French doors to block out the light. All of the other bedrooms simply had sheer curtains - no shades - on the windows, so sleeping in a different room wasn't an option. The bed in the main bedroom was uncomfortable and very creaky - it was impossible to move without making any noise!

  : It is on a quiet street with plenty of parking.
  : The sofa and dining chairs were not comfortable. The bathroom sink is so dirty. It was hard getting water from the faucet to splash ones face. The dishwasher is nice but I think it needs some kind of anchoring- when we had the bottom basket pulled out to fill it the dishwasher would tip forward. The coffee machine was not clean.

  : For the most part it was clean and very homey.
  : we found that dining room table was broken and held together with a rubber band. I found a pair of someones socks under the pillows of the futon which made me question just how hard someone actually cleaned up. we had an extremely hard time locking the door when we leave at any time. It would also would have been more convenient to have an outlet near the sink in the upstairs bathroom.

Poor

  : The Riley House was charming, clean, comfortable, and in a very good location near restaurants and within a (hilly!) mile's walk of historic Harper's Ferry. The beds were comfortable, all the bedrooms had ceiling fans, and there was plenty of hot water for showers. The house had many comfortable places to sit and relax, both inside and out.
  : Internet access through the house's wifi was not reliable, which may not be the fault of the house's router as neither was our cellular data (T-Mobile). Also, what we appreciated as the charming quirks of an older house, some others might not appreciate. If you are looking for a place with everything shiny and new, this is probably not the place for you.
