    Did not end up staying there. Working in the medical field, had a conflict, and there was no…read moreunderstanding at all from them for the 50% deposit, despite cancelling 3 weeks in advance. When initially booking, submitted a form to the website and never got a response until calling. When trying to cancel and see if the credit could be applied to another time, called multiple times without response and then received an e-mail finally saying that our stay was cancelled and the 50% deposit would not be refunded. Then, asked if we could apply to another day, and received another terse email back. So- don't book here if you're looking for flexibility and responsiveness. I'm disappointed that a place that bills itself as small and friendly was so terse and uncooperative. But I'm sure the stay itself could have been nice.

    I was in town for work for a FULL week. Unfortunately, I was leaving Magpie at 6:30am so I had to…read moremiss the breakfast :-(. However, each night I had a great night sleep, and the room was perfect. Plus, for those that can sense things, I will have you know it was very peaceful atmosphere at the Magpie. Easy reservations on-line. Allot of communications via text if you needed anything for your stay. If I had anything negative to say which really isn't a negative just a preference. I would have loved to see the original wood floors instead of carpet but that is just me. I am not a big fan of carpet. I would HIGHLY recommend the Magpie! Go and RELAX!!!!

    This place is very pretty cozy, very clean…read more The host was very warm, very attentive and communicative, we had a lot of communication via text before my arrival and she gave us a full tour even though we came way past check in and were only staying that night. The breakfast was amazing, tasty, with 2 kind of eggs, bacon, parfait, Strawberries, kiwi, grapes, nuts, banana and cinnamon pastries, coffee and orange juice, we requested it into the room, it was very romantic (I came with my husband) 1 thing I will forever be super grateful is that in my mexican mind, a "detached bathroom" in a house would mean "detached from other rooms (like.. private to the room) upon arrival, our host wanted to made sure i meant to book a room with no bathroom inside... i messed up!! I would have never considered a romantic gateaway with my husband in a bedro with a bathroom outside!!! But it was my mistake, (which at that point I hadn't even realized) and she was so kind and went above and beyond to offer me a switch to another available room when I realized my terrible mistake, I cannot express how grateful I am!!!I completely recommend this great place!!!
