Northey Street House

Convenient to many nearby activities and restaurants, beautiful architecture to see and comfortable inside.

Flora is an outstanding host. From the great breakfast with homemade granola and sourdough bread to the advice on what to see and do in town, Flora was great. The house is very well kept and comfortable and a nice 15-minute walk to the center of activity in downtown Salem. The house is charming and the room was very spacious and very comfortable.

There isn't anything I didn't like about our stay.

Location was excellent.

Water in shower needed to be a little hotter.

The house is very charming with an interesting back story. We loved reading about the history of the house and was impressed by how well the house has been preserved. We needed a place close to all of the attractions in Salem and this property ticked that box. It was within walking distance to the main hub where most of the attractions are, yet just far enough so things felt peaceful and quiet at night. We were very happy with the location of the stay.

We stayed on the top floor and the stairs are quiet gruelling to climb with heavy luggage. Luckily we are physically fit but it will be a problem for someone that isn't physically fit. When we arrived at the property after a 6 hour journey our first interaction with the owner was not very pleasant. She came across very cold and unapproachable. We're used to warmer welcomes and hospitality where we are from. The wifi was really not up to standard and doing almost anything was very slow and cumbersome. We also noticed that the breakfast cereal bars in the kitchen are way past expiry date, and on the last day of our stay we wanted to make the most out of the day and asked the owner to have breakfast at a specific time in the morning, but she was not there at that time so we didn't get a hot breakfast.
