“The Richards House impresses with its commitment to Victorian aesthetics, from its stained glass to its lovingly kept common areas; the full breakfasts feel like a genuine treat, enhanced by attentive service. While some exterior work is ongoing, the interior's historical charm and the promise of a memorable, home-cooked meal make it a worthwhile stay.
