I left a review when I stayed with Diane last summer but I had to send an update. We really enjoyed…read moreour stay. It was like staying with a much loved Aunt. We live in a rural small town so we took advantage of some shopping while in civilization (Syracuse). We had too much to carry back on the plane so we arranged shipping and Diane took care of it. Even contacted us to let us know our packages were picked up. You won't believe it but she even helped me pack the boxes fussing over our stuff just like my mom would have! I seriously love this lady!!!! We have travelled plenty and have never experienced warmth and hospitality like at Diane's place. We are looking for excuses to travel back to the area so we can stay at Madison Bed, Book & Candle again. It will definitely be one of our family "get away and relax" spots. I bought some of Diane's crochet baby blankets, ponchos, scarfs, hats, etc. They are lovely and very reasonably priced. I wanted some in other colors and she made them and shipped them to me, after helping me pick the colors. If you stay with her ask to see her work. It's worth it. Stay here. Don't look anywhere else. Diane will take great care of you with all the personal touches of home and then some. I just can't say enough.

If you're looking for a great alternative to a hotel in Madison, NY (less than 5 miles from Colgate…read moreUniversity in Hamilton, NY), this country inn is perfect. We stayed here for my husband's high school reunion and found it convenient (right on Route 20), comfortable, and quite charming! We stayed in the Nathaniel Hawthorne Room. This room overlooks Highway 20 and does get some traffic noise, so if you' re a light sleeper this might not be the room for you ... but with the windows closed and the air conditioner on low, we could barely hear the occasional car or truck go by. We heartily second the other reviewer's comment that the rooms were spotlessly clean and well appointed. And to top it off, she has free wi-fi access in all the rooms. Our hostess, Diane, made fresh lemonade for us to sip on the spacious side porch and made a delicious batch of fudge brownies for us to munch on. Breakfast was also delightful - fresh kiwi fruit and strawberries as a garnish with light, fluffy pancakes, bacon, and enough coffee to keep me happy. Yesterday's breakfast was also good - poached eggs on a lightly toasted english muffin with bacon and fresh fruit. We arrived just before the start of the annual Madison-Bouckville Antique Week festival (which is less than 2 miles down the road from the inn). Although we aren't into antiques, our fellow guests have a booth there ... they told us that this was their 4th straight year of staying here - a testament to Diane's hospitality. Prices are in line with what we expect to pay for a bed and breakfast with a private bath (there is another B&B on the road to Hamilton that's less expensive, but I understand it does not have a private bathroom) All in all, we had a very pleasant stay (and my husband even enjoyed his reunion!).

Staff were very accommodating and even helped fix a table that was slightly wobbly. Server was nice and the ambience was pleasant in the dining area. Not too loud, and wasn't packed. Food: the food was very good. We started off with a couple drinks and plentiful amounts of breads. I ordered a simple craft beer and my partner had the winter margarita which was exceptional with great presentation. We ordered the whipped feta skillet for an appetizer and it was very good as I never had anything like this before. My main course consisted of the braised short ribs (exceptional by the way) and my partner ordered the ratatouille (exceptional as well). Presentation and flavor for both and outstanding. I appreciate the black slate plates which were a nice touch. I hope the pictures do justice because the food was very good. . As expensive this place is and with the newer and younger staff, they did appear knowledgeable in how to navigate the restaurant world. In my opinion. The 1 star reviews might not really be necessary for this establishment because you felt slighted a bit, so reader be wary of allowing other bad reviews Influence your choice on eating here. Check their rating history, and if it's typically 1 star reviews, maybe it's just them? Overall we felt it was a great experience, the ambience and fireplace were nice , food was very good overall! We would come back, everything seems to be going up in price now adays, so it wasn't "too" unreasonable overall. They do offer some rich history with old photos of neighboring towns which I thought was very cool to see the historic side of things.

The first time was in the Spring of 2022 and most recently in December of 2022, consisting of a seven day visit. The property is sure to inspire for custom art pieces are throughout the well-stated 19th Century home. In my first stay, I slept in the Skylight room which was sublime. In my second stay, I was appointed the Gallery room which is adorned with excellent pieces of art. Cleanliness is noticed immediately. Every item positioned with purpose. The beds with the plush comforters make for wonderful nights of sleep. The trio of Victoria, Nick, and Andre are very welcoming. I have enjoyed conversations during both visits. If you enjoy reading, you will enjoy their sizeable library which will be sure to fill your reading appetite. I cannot speak highly enough about staying at Moscow Nights. If you are in the area, I humbly believe this home should be top of mind when choosing to rest your head. It is a godly home and the Spirit just may work powerfully for you during your visit, as it did for me.

Worst experience ever. The owner of the house has a beautiful house but other than that it's a…read moreliving hell. Victoria ( owner of the house ) is a control freak. 1. You do not have privacy - they go into your room every single day. 2. The place is not clean - there is dog hairs everywhere and the rooms are full of cobwebs and dust including the fans. 3. They don't allow you to bring food into the room which I also believe is acceptable but she also doesn't allow someone to bring food and eat at the kitchen table after ten pm. I need to also mention that the night that I went out to eat and had my first warm dinner - she locked me outside the house. 4. There are a ton of different bugs throughout the house including flying ants. I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone. They don't treat people with respect. They treat people as if they are doing you a favor - mind you they get paid to have occupants in their house. They just want to control when you go to sleep, what you eat, what you do, and when you wake up. That is one of the reasons they get into the rooms to see what you do and have in there. And that is invasion of privacy. And they can open the locks as often as they want even if you are in the room.

I requested hot water for tea since I'm a tea drinker and even brought my own tea bags. Coffee was provided. No yogurt or fruit as another person stated.

AVOID STAYING HERE. Stayed at Manor on the Green in August…read more2022. Overall the stay was fine but I did not feel comfortable staying at Elizabeth's house. It very much felt that I was being monitored. Here are some grievances, not in any order: 1. Elizabeth entered the bedroom I was staying in, after I had left. She made a comment that I shouldn't leave a damp towel on wood. Yes, I understand I should not have done this. It would have been good to know before hand that Elizabeth would go into the room I paid for. 2. Went to an event for the evening, Elizabeth texts me to pay the remaining bill that evening. Yes, I understand she wants to get paid. Could it wait though? I would have also been happy to pay when I arrived. It was strange to be asked to pay at 11 PM when I came back to the house and ready to go to bed. 3. No visible outlets in the room with two twin beds. 4. On the website, it states there will be breakfast served. Upon arrival, I was notified there will be no breakfast and no coffee. I paid about $225 for a room and no offer of coffee. Just one bottled water. I chose to stay at a B&B for the sole reason of getting breakfast in the morning. What a rip off. 5. Was told upon arrival that I was to not bring any food or drinks into the bedroom. Elizabeth stated she would kick anyone out of her room with no refund if she found food in the room. Would've been great to know this before hand! Overall, it felt like I was staying at a house where I wasn't allowed to make any mistakes or touch anything. It felt high class and stuck up. Would much rather stay at the Colgate Inn for a higher price to be able to relax and not feel that I have to whisper or fear someone coming into the room I paid for and snooping around.
