    It was clean and quiet. Our bed was comfortable. We met two other couples, one as they watched a baseball game in the upstairs common area, and both couples at breakfast. The food was fresh, hot, and delicious. I appreciated that they had a...

    The B&B was located OK for our travels but we probably wouldn't return. The room was large and the bed was comfortable. We liked it was near restaurants (one that we particularly enjoyed).

Company info

Originally from Omaha, Nebraska. I went to school for Culinary Arts at SUNY Adirondack, and worked as a chef in Saratoga Springs, before teaching culinary. In Oct of 2016 we purchased The Gridley Inn, and have been working on making wonderful experiences for our guest ever since. In my spare time, I admit, I am a gamer, and also enjoy Japanese Ricci Mahjong.

Property info

The first time I stepped foot into this house, I knew it was more than a home, it was a living experience. The antique character and style of the architecture, harkens to a time when things were built with great thought and care. My wife and I knew, that this home was a place where joy, company, good food, and music were meant to be.

Neighborhood info

Waterloo has been a kind and warm place, the neighbors are sweet, and have been regulars at the popular Acoustic Thursday concert series we hold from Jan to Mar. The history is amazing here too, and you can’t go a half block without discovering a fascinating story that shaped America, or at least this little piece of it.
