We used to live in New Bern and knew this would be an excellent location to enjoy downtown. The house is adorable, with walls decorated with the owner's colorful paintings. There are 2 comfortable sitting areas, one in the front of the house, one on the back by the kitchen. We didn't take advantage of the porch (or yard) because we had a very busy schedule, but I would've enjoyed relaxing out there. The beds were comfortable, extra blankets were in the closet as you'd expect. As the listing says, you need to bring your own toiletries, and we picked up a pack of toilet paper just in case (there were rolls there from other guests). Our family of 5 each had their own bed (our sons shared the 2 bed attic). Two words of caution: while there's a full bath downstairs, there's not a bedroom on the first floor. This might not be the place for you if you can't navigate stairs. Also, the spiral stairs to the attic/3rd floor bedroom are very tight and narrow. It might be difficult for those with larger builds to get up there. My oldest son only brought a carry-on and was able to navigate up with his suitcase just fine, but my younger son had a 24" checked bag, and it was a challenge to get it up the staircase. It took 2 people to hand it up. Keep that in mind while packing. Our host clearly communicated what we needed to know about the alarm, locks, etc. We had zero issues. We loved our stay and would gladly return to the property next time we make it to New Bern.
