I've stayed in quite a few B&B's now and my experience at Morton Street was easily the most unpleasant. I was greeted in the proprietors bakery with a "hello" and "we need the second half of your payment for the night". Folks stay in and pay a little more for B&B's so they can be treated like more than a source of income. I'm afraid I felt like I was nothing more than an unpleasantry that was distracting them from their bakery business. I was given a very quick tour and then the owner disappeared and was never seen again. They do not live on site- I really wish this had been clarified on their website. The backyard garden that has been set up as a dining area for their bakery/cafe was lovely; however the landscaping in the front of the B&B (where guests enter) was neglected with unkempt bushes and spider webs everywhere. The building itself was in need of a good power washing. The home itself smelled old and musty, and while one does acclimate to the smell, it wasn't pleasant. Our room was hot, there were two small dark stains on the bed sheets, and soap scum on the bathtub drainer (which was a very slow drain). It wasn't a homey experience; there was no special attention or notable hospitality. It was a room in an uncomfortable, smelly old house that provided no noteworthy ambience just a lousy night’s sleep.
