Julian Price House — Hotel in Greensboro

Firstly, I want to acknowledge that the Julian Price House is absolutely beautiful. The historic charm, well-maintained landscaping, and thoughtfully decorated interior create an impressive first impression. The architecture is stunning and the property has incredible potential for a memorable stay.|Unfortunately, the beauty of the home was overshadowed by a disappointing and frustrating guest experience.|I booked directly through their official website — which I now regret. There were undisclosed credit card surcharges and hidden fees that weren’t clearly stated during the booking process. The original confirmation email did not mention a credit card surcharge, and yet I was later charged additional fees after the stay, with no prior explanation or consent.|Check-in was another major issue. The confirmation stated I would receive a text with instructions on the day of arrival. That message never came. I arrived within the stated check-in window, called five times, and got no response. I was left standing in the driveway for over 30 minutes. I eventually spoke to a landscaper on-site, who kindly tried to help, and finally received a call back from Michael — who claimed they had the wrong number (no apology offered). Only then did I receive the long-overdue check-in instructions.|Later, I saw that the suite was listed for only about $75 more on Airbnb. I reached out to ask if I could upgrade and pay the difference. Michael quoted me $155 with tax, but never confirmed whether they would honor the Airbnb price. Again, communication was poor and unclear — and when the final charges came in, they did not match what was promised.|To add to the disappointment, the listing mentions a continental breakfast, which was misleading. What we found was cereal, candy, and a few random drinks — including expired orange juice.|__|In summary:|• Beautiful property with amazing potential|• Booking directly came with undisclosed fees and surcharges|• Terrible communication before and during the stay|• Misleading listing about breakfast|• Post-stay charges that didn’t match what was communicated|It honestly feels like the hosts are checked out and ready to sell the property. There’s a serious lack of attentiveness and care toward guests. I highly recommend booking through Airbnb instead — at least their pricing is transparent and you have a platform to mediate issues.|Disappointing experience. Proceed...

Not enough words to describe how amazing this stay was!! Me and 9 of my closest “framily” members booked the entire main house for three nights last weekend and I so wish we could have stayed another night or two. The history and architecture of this home is breathtaking, I needed a day or two to just venture around the house and grounds. The story behind this home sucks you in!! It’s how I ended up there! Michael and Eric are great and thankfully patient, as I’m sure we were not their usual guests, which is another reason we booked all the rooms! So as not to disturb others. 😉

We slept amazing, the beds were all very comfortable and my sisters were looking online for the sheets to buy at their house!! The traveler room did get a little warm when the heater was on and there’s no outlets in that bathroom, but that may be the ONLY small negatives we had and easy to work around since we had run of all the space. The baths were great, good water pressure and plenty of hot water. The house was SPOTLESS and snacks and beverages were provided and plentiful. Housekeeping came by each day, cleaned, made beds (and even added extra touches like making hearts on the bed with blankets) and replenished the kitchen items.

We are planning another trip and I cannot wait, this time with less time spent out of the house and more spent in❤️ If you are debating, don’t! Especially if you’re looking for some quiet, downtime to relax. This was one of my FAVORITE vacations ever! Thanks Michael and Eric! We’ll be back! I know you can’t...
