“You'll be completely over the Moon!”
I loved the Blue Moon Guesthouse! We had The Balcony room which is on the upper floor. It has a lovely little private porch area where you can sit with your morning coffee or a glass of wine and watch the sunset. Lovely big comfortable bed and a bathroom with two separate showers! Perfect! There is a big communal kitchen with the all important coffee machine (perfectly clean) and a lovely sitting room with armchairs and a piano. The Blue Moon Saloon itself is around the back and they had great music for the two nights we were there. Extremely welcoming bar staff (Zeke and Kat) and also the cat -Fourteen! The Blue Moon is also at the top end of Jefferson Street within an easy stroll of lots of great restaurants. In particular Pamplona and Vestal.

“Great house, just not on Saturday night.”
This was a nice property except on Saturday night when the building vibrated with the sound of the music from the club next door.

Old wooden town house, spacious living room and well equipped kitchen, (shared) bathroom clean, soap and shampoo available. Comfortable bed. Host is very responsive by email, code check in. Annex bar/music scene is noisy but it is clearly indicated when booking, so bring earplugs or enjoy the music.

“Best stay on our US trip”
Absolutely amazing stay at the Guesthouse! We stayed in the Birdsnest Room. There is a venue in the guesthouse, where bands were playing. The noise from the concert could not be heard in the room/very minimal noise from the concert. The bands were amazing and the concert goers were respectful. It was such a great atmosphere throughout the whole evening. Bathroom: The Birdsnest is the only room with its own bathroom. This bathroom has no showers but a nice and clean bathtub. We didn't use the bathtub, we used the communal showers on the ground floor. Clean towels, soaps, and even a toothbrush was provided. Room: Bed was super comfortable and the room was clean and little small birds all over the room which was a nice touch. Location: Just a few minutes away from downtown, Restaurants, bakery, supermarket and lots of other bars in a short walking distance. (5-10 minutes) Facilities: There is a kichen with communal fridge, freezer with ice, utensils and free coffee. There is a sitting room with games and comfy couches. Parking: we arrived on a friday afternoon, that meant parking on the road is free after 5pm and all weekend so we could park next to the guesthouse on the road (during the week there are a few parking lots nearby but not sure about the costs) Customer Service: Zeke was there to answer our questions, he was really friendly and accomodating. The person at the door for the concert was super friendly as well and our very favourite was 14 the cat who even spent the morning hanging out with us on the porch. The check in is via doorcode so there is no person to checkin with. We really enjoyed out time at the Blue Moon, it was our favourite place to stay on our whole roadtrip and if we come back, we definitely will stay there again!

“It was a great place to stay!”
Great location! Super helpful staff emailing information and check-in. Walked to the corner convince store and the Borden ice cream and food was awesome! The free drink ticket y’all gave us for your saloon was great! Enjoyed the people and music! I thought the music might be too loud while sleeping but it wasn’t!
