The breakfast was delicious. I was so excited about the food because the reviews all raved about it, and when I'm on vacation I like to eat! However, I was a little disappointed to learn upon arrival that breakfast was served in groupings at only 9 and 10 am. Being an early riser, and used to places serving breakfast starting at 7 am, I was unhappy to miss breakfast due to our plans starting at 9. But there was a delicious baked pear and a frittata on our final day. When we arrived, our meeting was brief with the innkeeper and not super inviting. But I did enjoy the sherry. My husband and I had pretty weird vibes the whole time and there were weird screeching sounds all night. Maybe *******, maybe pipes? But maybe not a great idea to have a bed against the thin wall to the house entrance. Bed was comfortable eventhough it was small ( a full or double sized bed I think). Like many of the other reviews mention, yes, this place is cluttered. There are very cool antiques around, but maybe they are more fitting for a museum or like in a designated area, because there was definitely not enough room for our own stuff. Also! Omg, I get that this place is supposed exude a different time period, but having a painting in our room depicting a white Victorian family on vacation with their black slave handing them their wears is ABSOLUTELY in poor taste given that we're in the year 2021. Being the only non white person staying at the bnb during our time there while sleeping under such an appalling painting gave me vibes straight out of the movie Get Out. On top of that, we spent the whole first day out and about because we didn't like the vibes in the house, but when we got back it was VERY apparent that someone had been in our room "tidying" up. Hotels don't even do that unless you request it, especially since covid and especially after having only been there one night. Maybe they thought we stole the sherry glasses because I didn't know where to leave it so I put them against the writing desk (which ironically had so much stuff on it you couldn't even sit and write). When we left, I made sure to hand the owner our room key while she was tidying up after breakfast, my husband standing behind me. 2 hours later I got a phone call saying they can't find my key, as if accusing me of not returning it. I said, "well, I don't know why you wouldn't be able to find it since I put it right in your hand after breakfast", and instead of an apology or thank you she says "oh it's on the buffet. Nevermind, bye". Honestly, probably one of the worst stays I've ever been to, following closely behind the murder Days Inn near Chincoteague where we couldn't decide if there was crap or blood on the wall. We definitely will not be going back, although I have to say, I will stop in Belfast some other time to eat at Darbys (that place is *chef kiss*). I'm really surprised no one else has mentioned that awful painting.
