Offsite management staff was first class from making reservations to assisting me on site despite accidently locking myself out of my room. Totally my bad. Thanks to some helpful guests with cellphone access, I was back in my room and on my way in less than an hour. Loved the location of the property. Beautiful neighborhoods and easily within convenient walking distance to Congdon Park. Only downside I saw was the bldg could use a freshen up on the exterior. It's a beautiful home. Why not maintain it as well as the interior? Definitely a great place to stay in East Duluth.

When cking in at night, no signs lite up to know what house. The outside grounds could use TLC with weeds grass clean up. No one to ask questions, no staff. T.V. didnt work and no WiFi, called and they said someone will call or fix.Nope!!! 2nd day, not sure what happened but coffee wasnt on. Tight quaters parking, but was ok. Loved our room and patio, clean and quiet except for the constent beeping from door codes from people in and out. Can those be shut off? Easy area to find things. Comfy bed. Morning breakfast items was nice. Wish it was back to a B&B...or at least a host on property. P.s. in booking let people know its through a company not called by Mansion name. I almost thought it was a scam when they called me, not recongnizing the name. We went through expedia, didnt recognize Heirloom name. Over all we enjoyed ourselves.

An okay stay in a very cool neighborhood

It was ok. I don't think it really is what I think of as a "boutique hotel". This was a former B&B, so it's basically a nice B&B without breakfast. I will say it was nice having coffee downstairs in the morning, but either have some good pastries or don't put out at all. The very dry mini-muffins and little scones were not great. Luckily we got a good deal, and some of their other properties look worth checking out. Service was great though- they were very responsive to my texts. I think if I was paying weekend summer rates, I would have been disappointed. So overall, not bad - just not great.

Extremely icy driveway and walkway. Was dark and not lit the best. The shower head flew off the shower too. They had said they’d send maintenance for that and the walkways but didn’t. The place was absolutely beautiful. The room and bed were fantastic. I would still go again

Very unique and fun property, felt very at home and loved the quality of the area. Minutes away from everything without being in the hustle and business of everything. Room was so clean and inviting. Bubbler tub was fabulous and needed after a day of walking around. Will definitely be back again!

There was lack of transparency by Expedia on the room. We believed we were booking a room in the mansion but learned at check-in that was not the case. The room was located in the carriage house not the mansion. It was clean, unique and comfortably laid out. We slept very little the first night. The wall air unit wasn't working so the 2nd floor room was overly warm. There was a noise from the roof that continued through the night. Maintenance resolved both issues the next day.
