The location is perfect, with private off-street parking, and a short walk to the shops and restaurants on the Main Street. Take a walk down the Keuka Outlet Trail or bring your bikes for a ride around the lake. It's ten minutes to Seneca Lake, and the closest wineries are just down the road. The Trimmer House is a stunning Victorian home with beautiful sitting rooms, a large, covered front porch, and cozy bedrooms. The en suite with the clawfoot tub was a selling point for me. Bessie's Room was spectacular. It was spacious, comfortable, and the shutters made for the perfect conditions for sleeping. I've never stayed in a B&B, and the Trimmer House has set the bar incredibly high. I can't rave enough about the breakfast - the food was amazing! Quiche, tarts, fresh food, bottomless coffee. I have a hard time believing there is a better breakfast in town. Bravo to the amazing hosts for creating such a comfortable, luxury experience in Penn Yan. Worth every penny and more!

It has new house smell and was pristine. The rooms are larger than I thought with good sized closets. I needed a desk for the week and the owners were very kind to bring one to the room for me. By the way - most folks are out for the day so the WiFi was better than my company jet pack! Definitely a plus. Breakfast this week landed around 9a and I had meetings during that time. They were so gracious to have a plate ready or welcome me to the porch table for privacy. Pros: - Their wine is delicious and their origin story is very interesting. Schedule a tasting ($10)! - Breakfast was delicious every day and includes ingredients from their garden - Local coffee served. And, it's good! - Beautiful, clean home - Knowledgeable owners - Close to several wineries - Short drive to town (restaurants) - beautiful area, super relaxing Cons: - Most wineries close at 5pm - TV in my room was *very* small. We didn't use it often so no stars taken.

The hosts Cindy and Casey created a warm and homey atmosphere for our stay. The house has sort of an estate so parking is easy.

Chris is the owner and she did absolutely everything she possibly could to make our stay as awesome as it was. The Inn is just beautiful with every possible amenity. Super clean and comfy. I loved the cozy robe just like you have in a 5 star hotel. And lovely fragrant soap. Chris made sure to accommodate my gluten free needs. She was so wonderfully attentive and sweet. We feel like we made a life long friend as we will certainly return. Chris is a wonderful host and chef. We thoroughly enjoyed her delicious breakfasts each morning. She even invited us to join her on Ride the Rails which was fantastic too. Definitely check that out when you visit the area. I'll also add that Penn Yan is a great central spot that makes it easy to get to most of the other finger lakes. So even if you are only in Penn Yam for a bit, you can easily visit the other attractions and lakes easily and stay in Chris's perfect Bed and Breakfast. Hope that you enjoy your stay as much as we did. Thanks for everything Chris! Sending big hugs.

We stayed at Los Gatos B&B for three nights while visiting the Finger Lakes. There are some…read moregenuinely nice things about the property. The grounds are very well maintained, the view from the deck is lovely, and the individual cabins have a certain rustic charm. Charlie was also very friendly and welcoming when we arrived. Unfortunately, the stay itself had a number of problems. The biggest was the bed. The mattress in our cabin seemed extremely old -- it was lumpy, sagged badly, and we could feel the springs. The cabin walls are also quite thin, and the road noise in the morning was loud enough to wake us. Our check-in took about an hour. Charlie was very friendly throughout, but the process involved an extraordinarily detailed explanation of virtually every aspect of the property and our stay. Even something as basic as finding extra toilet paper required a phone call because it was hidden away; we were told this was because guests had stolen toilet paper during the pandemic. Breakfast was another disappointment. It is served only at 9:00 a.m., which is quite late if you're trying to get an early start sightseeing in the Finger Lakes. Charlie told us that they could make something gluten-free, but the way it was presented gave us the impression that doing so would be a bit of an inconvenience. We felt uncomfortable asking them to go to the trouble, so we never did. Availability was a recurring problem throughout our stay. We texted one evening to say we wouldn't be able to make breakfast the next morning but received no response. When we stopped in around 8:15 the next morning to make sure they knew, Rebecca was surprisingly rude to us. The interaction was unpleasant enough that we decided to skip breakfast for the rest of our stay. Coffee was supposed to be available beginning at 8:00 a.m., but on at least one morning the building was still locked at 8:30. There were some other oddities. The room was reasonably clean but had a slight musty smell. We were also told that we needed to stay in an alternate cabin because the air conditioning was broken in the cabin we'd reserved. Later, however, we saw another couple staying in that original cabin, which left us confused about what had happened. The lack of availability became particularly frustrating when we checked out. We needed to leave early, but once again the main building was locked and no one was available to check us out or accept our payment. A few hours later, Charlie called and told us he would be adding an extra 4% to our bill because, with us no longer physically present, it would be considered a "card not present" transaction. We found this particularly unreasonable. We were perfectly willing to pay in person, but no one was available to take our payment. Charlie never mentioned during our approximately one-hour check-in that we needed to pay at a particular time to avoid an additional 4% charge. Had he done so, we simply would have paid then. He told us afterward that there was a sign near the coffee maker explaining the charge, but we never saw it. Charging a guest an additional 4% because the owners weren't available to accept payment in person strikes us as unconscionable. Guests should not be financially penalized because no one from the B&B is available to check them out. At an absolute minimum, a charge like this should be clearly disclosed directly to guests in advance and they should be given a reasonable opportunity to pay without incurring it. Overall, Los Gatos has attractive grounds, nice views, and cute cabins, and Charlie was friendly to us at check-in. But between the extremely uncomfortable mattress, morning road noise, rigid breakfast schedule, the recurring difficulty finding anyone available, our unpleasant interaction with Rebecca, and finally being charged extra because no one was available to accept our payment, the negatives substantially outweighed the positives. All in all, this was simply a bad experience for us, and we would not stay here again.

That is a must these days. The hotel staff is friendly and knowledgeable and professional whether it's early in the morning or late at night. We found that they addressed any concerns immediately and thoughtfully. As someone who travels frequently with my family I value a clean hotel and friendly staff. I also value a good nights sleep! The beds we slept on were OUTSTANDING. I don't want to seem like I'm overstating here. The beds were extremely comfortable and my family slept well. Long car trips with an 8 year old who is well rested is a blessing. The alternative is less than ideal. The other added bonus we don't usually partake in was the breakfast offerings. We were quite surprised at the quality and the variety of food offered. Fresh pancakes made in a little pancake oven my son got quite a kick out of watching was the favorite. There was a large variety of fresh fruit, breads and cereal in addition to hot foods that varied each day. From start to finish we had an excellent stay. We would absolutely stay again. My son greatly enjoyed the indoor pool. I must say I am astonished at the number of hotels who have an outdoor pool in the Northeast. It's unusable for a great deal of the year! This hotel allows people the luxury of a swim or hot tub all year long. The small gym is also very nicely equipped. I personally appreciate seeing evidence that guest comfort and enjoyment is considered and important to the places we call home even for a short time.
