School House Bed & Breakfast — Hotel in Rocheport

Stayed in the Dormitory, its nice but the rates are high for what you get. Also not super clear from the web site that the dormitory rooms don't come with a full breakfast, just some packaged stuff from the grocery store. This was a big disappointment; after riding the Katy we were really looking forward to a nice, big, home cooked breakfast. The packaged items were pretty meager and didn't come close to fueling us for the morning ride. The $20/person extra charge is hard to understand given the small breakfast provided - at least $15 of that is just extra profit. Replying to owner: sorry, but there is nothing budget about $130 for a small room with some packaged food from the grocery store, that I could have purchased for a lot less than $20 per person. For the record, the juice was three small bottles (maybe 4 ounces?), the muffins were also very small, and the cereal was a very limited selection of those tiny boxes they sell in packages of 12 or something. Even the apples were small. I guess a small breakfast goes with a small room? The truth is I had much better breakfasts at motels that charge $50 for the room and don't charge extra for extra people (really, each guest uses $15 in utilities for a single nights stay? give...

Loved everything about the place but the thermostat located in the hallway. After riding 25 miles on the KATY trail in 90+ degree temperatures my wife and I were really looking forward to a shower and air conditioning. We got a shower and a very hot room. I suspect that the manager turned the AC in the room up to save money and forgot to turn it back down when we booked the room.

The room had great instructions printed out that didn't mention the fact that the thermostat was out in the hallway. The breakfast was outstanding and when I mentioned that the fact that the room was very hot, the fellow serving breakfast went out of the room for a moment and came back saying that somehow the thermostat in the hall was turned off.

The room was beautiful, the bed was nice, the whole place was wonderful and all that was messed up by a sleepless night in a sweltering room preceded by a 25 mile bike ride and followed by another 25 mile bike ride.

If you decide to stay at the School House, be sure to check around in the hallway if your room is to hot or to cold.

No effort was made by the staff to make up for the non-functional AC. I would have at the very least expected a credit on a...

First of all -- do NOT let the fact that this inn is a former schoolhouse deter you in any way! It makes for a charming and interesting setting. The inn is tastefully decorated throughout, and each room has a school-related name. We stayed in the 'Honor Roll' room, for example. No, the rooms don't feel like classrooms. The inn is immaculately clean throughout, and the owners seem to have thought of every detail. Forget a toiletry? There's a basket with commonly needed items at your disposal. Would you like a bottle of wine or a beer? They are available at a reasonable cost on the honor system. The common area is well stocked with games, cards, books and DVDs for your use. A few cookies or snacks were always on hand too. The breakfasts were delicious. Our room had ample space for sitting yet was still cozy. The hosts were friendly and very detail oriented. We set out to have a relaxing weekend, without an itinerary filled with things to do, and it was sooo nice to just take it easy. We enjoyed our...
