Relaxing, comfortable weekend

We had delicious breakfasts each day and enjoyed a very relaxing stay here overall. It truly felt like an oasis. The residential area surrounding the property was very quiet, contributing to the overall atmosphere. DeAnn was very helpful and friendly during our stay - could not have asked for a better host! We would definitely stay there again.

Yes, stay here!

Gorgeous place, top to bottom. Fabulous breakfast and the misc. amenities were top shelf. And a great value’ The ONLY reason I scored cleanliness a 4 instead of a 5 was that the carpeting in our room could have used a cleaning. Otherwise, it exceeded expectations.

Ross Paul

Disliked: Staff & service
First, the good: the room and inn are beautifully decorated and clean. Sadly, with that exception, our stay was rather unpleasant. When we first arrived, the hostess opened the door and greeted us IN HER BARE FEET. The advertising on Expedia says, "This property is managed by a professional host." The next morning, when she served us breakfast, she served breakfast IN HER BARE FEET. Not only is this unprofessional, but it is also unsanitary. Aren't there Department of Health standards for B&Bs in Appleton? If this weren't enough, the website says no pets except for service dogs. To our surprise, the hostess/owner has a dog on premises, and it's a noisy dog. This dog was barking during the first day of our stay, and again, early the next morning, this dog was barking so loudly we could hear it on the second floor. There is no warning that I could find on Expedia that says if you have allergies to dogs, you are forewarned that there is a dog living on the premises. And apparently, after looking at other reviews of this property, we are not the first person to have issues with the barking dog. Very unprofessional. Not relaxing. And to top it all off, the hostess/owner ignored four emails to them regarding our concerns, and Expedia had to contact them more than three times just to get a response. I WOULD **NEVER** STAY HERE. GUESTS BEWARE!

Property has so much potential, unfortunately upkeep, mostly of the grounds and gardens is lacking. Rooms are adequately clean, but carpet is quite stained, light wasn’t working in our room, and outlets were at a premium. The assistant innkeeper was quite responsive and kind, especially with the minor issues of the light and needing an extension cord due to lack of outlets, however the larger problems lie in some of the owner’s choices. We originally had one of the smaller rooms as this was a quick visit, but both desks had appliances (coffee maker and fixings on one, and toaster oven on the other) so there was no place to set my own belongings on. There was a lovely soaking tub, and separate shower in another room, but only 2 towels and only 1 makeup wash cloth. When we unfortunately had a furry visitor scare us after we were ready for bed, we were promptly moved to another, much larger suite. This one had plenty of towels, an open desk, but no coffee maker. The parlor was lovely, with a coffee maker, to go treats, pizza oven and microwave, but unfortunately the power went out in that room when making coffee and heating up our leftovers. Word of caution if you book on this site, full hot breakfast is not included. Overall fair nights rest, comfortable bed (but no top sheet), and kind worker. We were able to see the other rooms, and would highly recommend the Bella suite for more space, but interestingly no appliances in that one either.

Sorry, not good

Grounds very unkempt, stains in carpet, ants and spiders in room. Shower head not working properly, no information in room about anything (tv, fireplace, literally nothing). According to hostess, breakfast not included because of booking through Expedia, so extra $20 apiece for breakfast. And I’m being kind in my review.

Very livable stay. Several upcharge opportunities, so know what you are getting yourself into. (Breakfast is additional $$, late check-in is extra $$). In a residential area, very responsive host, clean, and quiet. Best part was a very social breakfast in a common dining room with other guests.

I loved the large jacuzzi tub. Little touches like candles were provided along with water, snacks and a variety of coffee, tea, cocoa, etc with a Keurig in the room and lobby. Megan was super helpful with assisting us in booking the Charter bus to the Packer game. I was contacted prior to arriving and they recommended a couple options for dinner.

My partner and I were coming through Appleton for travel and stopped for the night at The Roost. The property was beautiful and easy to find. Our host was great and the room was so cozy. She also served us breakfast in the morning which was delicious! I would definitely come back here again.
