点评:I stayed two nights in the Josephine Room, on the second floor of the main house. There was a lot to like: A cheerful, strong, helpful young man named Jack hauled my luggage up the many stairs to my room. The room’s French theme informed the charming décor. The under-window AC unit kept the room cool despite the hot, humid weather. The blackout curtains were easy to close and very effective – necessary, because the lawn’s lights stay on overnight. The sleigh bed was clean and comfortable. The bathroom was clean, and the inn supplied tiny bars of soap, individual bottles of shampoo and conditioner, qtips, cotton balls and Kleenex. It was quiet. Even with 2 of the 3 neighboring rooms occupied, I heard no noise from the other rooms. Guests were careful to be quiet in the hallway. The convenient common area, in the wide hallway outside the four guest rooms, had a well-supplied coffeemaker, full size fridge, microwave oven, chairs and a door onto a balcony porch. Breakfast, cooked fresh upon my arrival in the dining room downstairs, was simple but tasty: scrambled eggs, potatoes, sausage, croissant, OJ, coffee. Why I would not stay here again: The common areas (main floor, stairwell, second floor hallway) smelled extremely musty, as if the carpets, walls and furniture needed a good cleaning. Aside from the bed and bathroom, the rest of my room needed a thorough cleaning. I removed a piece of dried up food (perhaps an old Cheeto?) from the floor under the desk. There were thick layers of dust on top of my room’s door frames and chair rail mouldings. Given the obvious lack of vacuuming and dusting, I avoided looking at the carpet, curtains, wall hangings and ceiling fan, afraid I would find more filth. The upholstery on some of my room’s furniture looked old, worn and dirty. I put a towel on the desk chair rather than sit directly on its upholstery. I did not use the dingy chaise lounge. My room’s closet was hot, musty, under an eave, down a step, inconvenient and unpleasant. I did not use it, afraid that my clothing would end up smelling musty. If only the room had a coat rack or hooks on the wall, so clothing could hang in the room rather than the yucky closet! The wifi was weak and unreliable, often without internet connection. There was a very high step up into the shower (and therefore a significantly large step down to exit the shower). It took a long time to get hot water and the shower’s water pressure was barely adequate. To reach its potential, this inn needs more attention to basic details.
翻译:我在主楼二楼的 Josephine Room 住了两晚。有很多值得喜欢的地方:一个名叫杰克的开朗、坚强、乐于助人的年轻人拖着我的行李爬上许多楼梯来到我的房间。房间的法式主题为迷人的装饰增添了色彩。尽管天气炎热潮湿,但窗下的空调装置使房间保持凉爽。遮光窗帘很容易关闭而且非常有效——这是必要的,因为草坪的灯会整夜亮着。雪橇床干净舒适。浴室很干净,旅馆提供小块肥皂、单独瓶装的洗发水和护发素、棉签、棉球和面巾纸。很安静。即使 3 个相邻房间中有 2 个被占用,我也听不到其他房间的噪音。客人们在走廊里小心翼翼地保持安静。便利的公共区域位于四间客房外的宽阔走廊上,配有设备齐全的咖啡机、全尺寸冰箱、微波炉、椅子和通往阳台门廊的门。早餐是在我到达楼下餐厅时新鲜烹制的,简单但美味:炒鸡蛋、土豆、香肠、羊角面包、橙汁和咖啡。为什么我不会再住在这里:公共区域(主楼层、楼梯间、二楼走廊)闻起来非常霉味,好像地毯、墙壁和家具需要好好清洁一下。除了床和浴室,我房间的其余部分都需要彻底清洁。我从桌子下面的地板上取下一块干涸的食物(也许是旧的 Cheeto?)。我房间的门框和椅子扶手装饰条上有厚厚的一层灰尘。鉴于明显缺乏吸尘和除尘,我避免去看地毯、窗帘、壁挂和吊扇,害怕我会发现更多的污秽。我房间的一些家具的装饰看起来又旧又脏。我在桌椅上放了一条毛巾,而不是直接坐在椅垫上。我没有使用昏暗的躺椅。我房间的壁橱很热,有霉味,在屋檐下,在台阶下,既不方便又令人不快。我没有用它,怕我的衣服最后闻起来有霉味。要是房间的墙上有衣帽架或挂钩就好了,这样衣服就可以挂在房间里,而不是挂在讨厌的壁橱里! wifi 很弱而且不可靠,经常没有互联网连接。进入淋浴间的台阶非常高(因此离开淋浴间的台阶非常大)。热水花了很长时间,淋浴的水压勉强够用。为了发挥其潜力,这家旅馆需要更多地关注基本细节。
