The Gay Street Inn is an excellent choice. As the other reviews have noted, the Inn is warm and tasteful. The bed was really comfortable; the breakfast delicious. The Innkeepers were incredibly welcoming and reallly went out of their way to ensurebthat we had a pleasant stay. And it is a mere two blocks away from The Inn at Little... More

Most enjoyable stay at The Gay Street Inn. We went to Little Washington for a retirement dinner celebration at The Inn at Little Washington. The Gay Street Inn is a very short walk to the restaurant. When we arrived back to the inn, to our delight, there was a bottle of port, beautiful glassware, chocolates, and a fire to make... More

Our first experience at a B & B and found the Inn, the innkeepers, and the town absolutely delightful. A lovely old home with a gorgeous garden, updated with very nice bathrooms, and a creative and attentive breakfast. Just 2 short blocks to our dinner destination, the Inn at Little Washington. GSI was all I had hoped for. More

Although our aim is to please all of our guests, we're always especially delighted when first-time B&Bers take the plunge and discover they can enjoy this type of get-away -- there are so many wonderful B&Bs all over. We love sharing our home and the area in which we live, and are glad that these guests enjoyed themselves during their... More

I surprised my boyfriend with a trip to Washington, VA for his birthday with dinner at the Inn at Little Washington and a night at the Gay Street Inn. The inn was perfect and the inn keepers were so wonderful. Our room was really cozy and clean and the common areas were also very nice. When we arrived Kevin offered... More

Maybe the best B&B I have ever stayed at anywhere. Room very attractive and comfortable -- as are the public spaces. Breakfast delicious. As noted by others, Kevin and Jay could not be better hosts (Kevin is a talented artist as well). Truly excellent in all respects. More

The Gay Street Inn was fantastic. It resides a couple of blocks from the center of Little Washington, a convenient walk to any destination including the Inn at Little Washington. The hosts are Jay and Kevin who couldn't be better hosts. The Gay Street Inn is beautifully decorated with amazing art including a number of Kevin's pieces (Kevin is a... More

We stayed here the evening of our dinner at the Inn at Little Washington (Oct 2011). The Inn's prices were over the top so we browsed other accommodations in the little hamlet. We could not have been more pleased with our stay at Gay Street Inn. We were greeted by Kevin, the owner, upon our arrival. He gave us a... More

We stayed here when we celebrated an anniversary at the Inn at Little Washington and were very pleased. The room was spacious and well appointed, breakfast was sumptuous, and the innkeepers were friendly and helpful but gave us our privacy. Kevin even printed out a suggested route to Montpelier for us when we expressed interest in going there. The only... More

Ten years ago we celebrated 3 family birthdays at the Inn at Little Washington and chose the Gay Street Inn as our overnight lodging. We decided to return this year to celebrate the 60th, 80th, and 90th birthdays of the same family members with dinner at the Inn at Little Washington and chose the Gay Street Inn again for our...

Our stay at Gay Street Inn was phenomenal. As others have mentioned, the proprietors are truly gems. Kevin gave us a warm welcome when we arrived and went over some of the activities in the area that might interest us, including pointing us to a winery that was just down the road (and giving us free tasting passes, to boot!)....
