We were surprised to see this unfavorable review after both you and your wife told us multiple times what a great time you had with us. If you were as upset as you stated in your review then why did you stay with us for 3 nights and never once bring any of these concerns up to us? We would... More

We have stayed at many B&Bs throughout the United States. The Adams House ranks right up there with the very best in all respects. Liz and Eric are perfect hosts, cooks and city-music guides. We stayed two nights (we wanted to stay for 4 but space was not available), our room was very comfortable, and wished we could have stayed... More

The Adams House is a beautifully restored and comfortable B&B located in the historic and tree-lined, walkable neighborhood of Hyde Park. (Think Pasadena meets Berkeley/Oakland, if you are from CA.) Several cute and tasty restaurants are a couple blocks away. Liz printed out a walking tour of the neighborhood that she researched and wrote, while Eric guided us to a... More

We found the perfect introduction to Texas: Adams House. Liz and Eric share their wonderful home and neighborhood with their guests. The rooms are cozy and comfortable. Breakfast is always healthy and delicious with homemade choices and good coffee. They shared ideas for excellent meals right down the street. Eric is a musician and gave us tips on interesting venues... More

There is a reason for all the high ratings - this place is wonderful. The location is great - in a quiet, leafy area but only a short bus ride from the U of T campus and the city centre. There are also shops (including a grocery store) and restaurants about two minute's walk away. The house and rooms are... More

Liz and Eric were great hosts, and we enjoyed our two-day stay there. The accommodations were wonderful, and Eric cooks a great breakfast! The Adams House B&B is in very nice neighborhood and there are restaurants and coffee shops within walking distance. We think anyone who likes B&Bs will most definitely enjoy their stay at Adams House B&B.
