角落大廈住宿加早餐旅館

We were so excited to stay in this historic home, based on past reviews and even added a second night to our original reservation. We checked in after dark and I wasn’t given directions to our Galleries room which was in the third story of another building around the corner from the main house. Thankfully, I had seen the layout online before we arrived and we eventually found our room. Macy texted soon after, asking if we found our room and apologized for the “stray dogs in our parking lot”. There were three large dogs and one stayed close by, barking as we were unloading and for quite a while afterward. We travel with two small dogs and it didn’t feel safe for them or us. I called the City of Vicksburg and they stated that the Corner’s owner, Macy, had told them not to pick up the stray dogs when animal control had been called out in the past. She was given a solution that would have helped keep guests comfortable and chose not to proceed. We slept in our clothes because the bed was not clean. There were also dead bugs on the floor, and the rugs had not been vacuumed. Macy asked for pictures to show her housekeeper and apologized for the “ladybugs” (cockroaches). There was a coffeemaker provided—about 2 feet from the toilet. The jetted tub was older and based on the general uncleanliness of the room, we could not bring ourselves to use it. There was no shower. Due to these experiences, we chose to leave the B & B early the next morning and not stay the second night as planned. I texted Macy so she wouldn’t have to provide breakfast. The town of Vicksburg was delightful and we enjoyed breakfast and coffee from Bohemia Cafe and Bakery, walked throughout downtown, viewed the Riverfront murals, shopped at a great indoor flea market, and visited the National Military Park. We had some wonderful BBQ from Big Bees and eventually resumed our leisurely journey. Upon arriving home, we found Macy had emailed us a voucher for a free night’s stay at their property. Although I appreciate the gesture and admission of fault, we do not plan to stay there again and this is of no use to us. My husband called this week to discuss and Joe (the other owner) answered. Joe swore at my husband, and said we left early because “we just had somewhere to be” and that we should call our credit card company. Wow. The grounds are gorgeous. We believe the home has been well preserved and the river view from our balcony took us back in time. The neighborhood is sketchy. We are leaving this review to inform travelers such as ourselves: who simply wish for good service, clean rooms and hosts who take ownership of any misses. This visit was a miss. You decide if this is a place for you.

We made last minute reservations here on the way from a long road trip. Macy was so kind when we checked in. Immediately knew we'd be tired and hungry and pointed out several locations on a map we could take with us to dining establishments. Our room was in the Galleries (a separate building from the Mansion). It was quiet, had a view of the river (if you stay in one of those rooms you'll need to know you'll have to climb stairs - which we were fine with). Breakfast was so delicious and Macy regaled us with tales of the mansion's history and some of the artifacts that were found on or near the property. We, sadly, couldn't stay for the included tour of the home; we'd have loved to learn the history. But, there will be a next time.
