Love staying in old B&B houses that have been tastefully modernized inside. Staff was very helpful with accommodations.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
Pros: it's a nice-looking converted house in a good neighborhood. the staff was friendly. and I appreciated their guide to local restaurants, bars and activities.
Cons: one of the most uncomfortable hotel beds I've ever slept on. felt similar to a cheap pull-out couch, where you sink to the bottom and can feel a support bar in the middle. we struggled to fall asleep and woke up with aches and pains. completely sub-standard, especially for the price (almost $600/night incl. taxes). also, our bathroom had a cord hanging from the ceiling, with a bare wire where a light fixture would normally be.
Rooms were absolutely beautiful. Great breakfast and lots of thoughtful touches including free snack bar, board games and local recommendations. Highly recommend!
Staff was so helpful and the breakfast was delicious! Our shower drained a little slow (old homes!) but they fixed it right away. It is a beautiful hotel in a quiet and beautiful neighborhood, but we could still walk to everything.
A stay at Blind Tiger is like visiting a gracious and stylish friend. There are so many details that helped to make me feel welcome and at home. And the coffee in the morning is delicious!
Located in a residential neighborhood instead of a tourist area adds to feeling like a local. And I appreciated the excellent recommendations for places to eat in the "Guide" on the website.
Also Check-in and check-out were effortless; even though they were contact-less still felt personal.
We loved the cleanliness of the property. They really kept it true the historic nature of the property, which we really appreciated.
We only had 2 small concerns:
1. The back garden was peaceful and beautiful, but a bit overgrown (trimming up and/or shaping some of the growth would have been nice
2.The shower in our bathroom was very difficult to adjust temperature (the knob kept falling off in our hand, but no big deal we managed just fine).
Great quiet area in walking distance to restaurants and shopping. We did not need a car to get around.
Inn keeper very punctual, organized and courteous. All good!
