This is a wonderful WONDERFUL place to stay. Our room was so unique and charming, with a great claw-foot tub and beautiful bed. The owners provided wonderful cookies, happy hour, hors d'oeuvres and wine, and the breakfasts were delicious. It was also affordable. We will definitely return! more

The Inn Keepers , the Siegels, really enjoy what they do and it shows. You feel at home in the 100 year old Inn as soon as you enter. The Inn itself is well restored and maintained with nice communal areas, both inside and out to linger and great comfortable beds. From what I saw not a big difference in... more

We chose the 4 1/2 Street Inn from their website and from reading the reviews on TripAdvisor and we couldn't have been happier with our choice. Helene and Rick treat all of their guests like long-time friends. From the happy hour each day with delicious appetizers to their concierge-like services when looking for a suggestion for dinner or something to... more

We rented all ten rooms for the weekend for a gathering of family and friends. Prior to our arrival Helene worked with us over the internet in recommending a caterer, massage therapists, and restaurants. During our stay she and Rick cheerfully met our every request. Each room is large and wonderfully unique. The breakfasts are varied and delicious. We checked... more

The inn is the warmest , coziest, most pleasant place we have ever stayed. Rick & Helene make us feel totally welcome and at ease from the time we arrive. The rooms are always immaculate and the beds have the most comfortable matresses. The grounds and the fact it is a couple of minutes from downtown (not too close or... more

Rick and Helene are wonderful hosts. They really make you feel welcome. They are super helpful in making restaurant reservations and offering advice on... more

I love The 4 1/2 Street Inn, and for the last few years, I've been going at least twice a year. It's my favorite place to go to clear my head. It's quiet, the rooms are clean and quaint, it's very reasonable (especially for this single gal's budget), and it works well whether I go with a friend, or if... more

Our first experience with a bed and breakfast. We sure picked a GREAT one for our first time. Helene and Rick are wonderful hosts and the breakfasts were absolutely the best! Their wine and cheese hour in the afternoon is a great way to meet new friends. The Inn is within walking distance to downtown Highlands, which is a wonderful... more

We enjoyed our stay at the 4 1/2 Street Inn although it was just for one night. The owners were extremely friendly and helpful, room was adorable, grounds were beautiful. Our only minor concern was the mattress in our room (#8) was extremely hard, which is usually a good thing as it means support, but somehow this was just too... more
