Pick This Place!

I was looking at all the options, and vacillating between all the run-of-the-mill options. I finally decided to just go for it, and picked the Respite. What a blessing! Beautiful, quiet, warm, comfy. Street parking was fine. There was plenty and it was well lit and close. Their guest book was filled with 2 years of rave reviews. We’ll pick this on the way home, too.

Odd place

Overall our stay was acceptable; however, there were many odd features. The furniture was not appropriate for the room, with an old entertainment center that was empty and useless, a tv that was rather small for the wall it was on, no art, and no way to adjust the temperature in the room. Also, there was no way to get extra towels since there were no employees present. The website had given us the impression the building was old, but it was not.

This place was fantastic. This place did not disappoint and I would definitely stay there again. The service they gave was impeccable. They made our Thanksgiving with family one we won’t forget. Anything we wanted they were there. Lots of space for everyone. The inside is absolutely gorgeous. Loved it!!

Delightful, spacious, yet cozy B&B. Our room was very spacious (2 Queen beds), large sitting area and nice bathroom. There are several upstairs and downstairs sitting areas. Coffee station and fridge in the rooms. The host prepared a delightful, full breakfast. It’s about a 10 minute walk to central downtown Paducah (Market House Square) where most of the shops and restaurants are located. Only 3 blocks from the National Quilt Museum. The house is new construction, but in the style of the original period of the neighborhood. It was part of city incentives to revitalize the “lower town art district” to build or renovate homes to include art studios for local artists. We enjoyed our stay very much and would stay there again! Very reasonably priced.

A beautiful, quiet, exceptionally clean property with a wonderful breakfast made and served by the friendly proprietor. I don’t make it out Paducah very often but will gladly stay here again. It’s worth noting that the shower had excellent water pressure and heat.

This place feels like you are staying at your home away from home. The family who owns it was super welcoming and makes an amazing breakfast. Loved the billiards room.
