Stayed for two nights at Easter 2018. If half-points were here, I'd give Currier House a…read morefour-and-a-half; it is not a "five," but it is better than a "four."|
Short version:
(1) The place was spotless, absolutely clean through-out; lots and lots of photos and old things on display as you might see in a museum, but nothing - absolutely NOTHING - dusty or musty. The place was spotlessly clean.
(2) Breakfasts were good, homemade, nutritiously balanced, and plentiful. In addition, available in the dining area at any time of the day were juice, fruit, coffee/tea, and cartons of yogurt.
(3) Location is excellent. It's a one-block walk from the water and the light house. If you have a room with a balcony at the front of the house, you can watch the moon over the river.
(4) B&B hostess is on site, knows the area exceptionally well, and will tell you anything you might ever want to know about Havre de Grace, past or present. Hostess was kind, gracious, and absolutely polite.
(5) Negatives: Guest rooms are small, and the mattress I experienced was quite firm. However, regarding the firm mattress, my solution for the second night was to fold a blanket under me. If you don't like a firm mattress, ask the hostess for an extra blanket or two, fold them, and let them be your cushion on the firm mattress. The mattress was _not_ worn or old; rather, it was simply quite firm, and I do not like firm mattresses.
Havre de Grace is just the neatest little historic town! In warm weather, this place would be perfect: Of the B&B's in HdG, this place is closest to the water. It's less than a two-block walk to the start of what the locals call "the Promenade," which is the boardwalk along the river. At the same time, in warm weather, it's just a quick few blocks walk to the historic downtown area of Havre de Grace. The house is located on what is called "The Lafayette Trail," something of a historic walk thru and around Hdg.
So, my recommendation is positive, but be prepared for a very firm mattress.
