I had such a great time. The courtyard is just beautiful, the room was comfortable, and even though it was right in the middle of a great neighborhood with lots of restaurants, it felt like I was in the country! Definitely advised.

My wife and I stayed at The Morning Glory Inn on March 16th, in the Attic Suite. The Inn is located in a charming neighborhood right in the heart of the city on the Southside.

To begin, we loved the venue which was both charming and beautiful. My fiance and I were looking for a nontraditional style wedding and we thought we'd found it. The owner seemed very gruff and offputting but we chalked it up to his experiences and we put our deposit down a year in advance thereby booking the wedding. Due to... More

Brian, you booked In April 2012 and signed a legal contract that you fully understood..."if cancelled, we will refund an amount commensurate with the revenue generated with the booking of a comparable event for your reservation dates". Your reservation made that date unavailable for nearly 3 months before you cancelled. We turned away clients who wanted that date. In January... More

I am in the can leaving Morning Glory and had to write a review. The estate is beautiful, quaint, and clean. Our stay was in their top room and it did not disappoint.

We booked the 5 rooms inside the main house last weekend for a surprise 50th birthday party for my mom. The dinner and surprise portion were done at Mallorca down the street but after dinner we came back and had wine that we brought as well as dessert that we brought as well. The place was absolutely picture perfect and... More

Dave has done hundreds of weddings. He knows the place inside and out, he knows what's going to work. If you're a bridezilla, find somewhere else. This is a beautiful, well kept inn! We loved the reading selection, and breakfast was amazing! We stayed all evening. Not ideal for staying with babies. We had a blast all weekend!

I am sorry to hear you were disappointed, especially because we want everyones memories of the wedding to be nothing but positive ones. The wedding couple were ecstatic with the results. The wedding couple chose this Historic 1862 Inn because of the inside outside flowing style, which makes for a smashing party, and the ambiance...the German builder of this Italianate... More

Clearly there is an issue with the owner Dave. Maybe his wife should start dealing with customers. Our experience was similar to all the negative reviews regarding Dave. Place is cute, room was okay, wedding was beautiful, but Dave is very unfriendly and cold. He also seemed to be lingering around, I never felt comfortable there. A couple guests at... More
