Had I not read the TripAdvisor reviews I would have been sorely disappointed by the jacuzzi-sized "swimming pool" and the awful prepackaged breakfast, but I knew what to expect and was satisfied. Service was very friendly and attentive, the room (Wilder) was large and spotlessly clean. The place is a little out of the way but no more than a... More

Really enjoyed staying the 4 nights at Authors. We had the Thornton Wilder room which was on the 2nd floor. The room is for 3 people, but with just my wife and I there was plenty of space to spare! The AC was super cold, the bed was comfortable and the bathroom was more than adequate in size. Authors is... More

!st time in KW, so didn't know what to expect. Now realize most of lodging are B&B's or guest houses. This facility is rather old, rooms kinda small, and are just old rooms divided up for sleeping. Rooms were VERY clean, however, didn't have a true sitting/kitchen/convenience area. Grounds get daily attention, well kept & VERYCLEAN, just an old facility.... More

We enjoyed our stay thoroughly. We were greeted very friendly and received tips were to go and how to get there. Hotel is in walking-distance to most major sights. Rooms were clean and very comfortable.

A chilled (with hot option) filtered water dispenser and a ice machine are free to use in the common area.... More

Only stayed one night. Accomodations were ok but nothing special. Place looks a little run down from what I could see. Off the beaten path but fairly close to the wharf. Nothing around so you have to walk or drive several blocks for everything. Although the hostess/receptionist was extremely nice and helpful, most likely would not stay here in the... More

Stayed 2 nights in The Artists Room in this B&B, liked it. The welcome of the hostess was very friendly and informative. We where shown to a nice room with sufficient space, a tv, aircon and a small but good bathroom. The decoration of the room really brought it alive and we felt right at home. Complimentary breakfast is simple... More
