What guests say
9.3 / 10 · Wonderful on Booking.com, from 233 guest reviews
The Big Yellow Inn earns overwhelmingly positive sentiment, with guests consistently singling out the warm, attentive hosts and delicious breakfasts as highlights of their stay. The property's distinctive themed rooms and antique-filled décor are a major draw, though a small number of guests found the abundance of knick-knacks cluttered, and practical niggles — such as a hard-to-navigate parking area and limited breakfast hours — surfaced occasionally. Overall, it is regarded as a charming, characterful bed-and-breakfast that most guests are eager to return to.
