A Few Kind Words From Past Guests:

"Highly recommend it! The staff and facilities were amazing. We stayed four nights and enjoyed the comfortable bed, towels, continental breakfast with great coffee, and the location was perfect for us. It was very quiet as well. The house is impressive with excellent period furnishings. The front porch was so relaxing to sit on and read with coffee in the AM. It's NOT a chain hotel - it is a beautiful home that is very inviting and fun to live in, if only for a few days at a time." - Kevin

"I am so happy we stayed at Martha's Bed and Breakfast. We were in Lincoln for a family gathering and many of my family members stayed at nearby hotel chains. We enjoyed luxurious sheets and a beautiful accommodation filled with antiques. Our room and bathroom were perfectly clean. My family members gathered on the first floor and porch of the building and everyone admired the property and wished they had chosen to stay at Martha's." - Nicole

"Martha's is a beautiful historic home with excellent amenities and friendly staff. I enjoyed breakfast in the morning and the fireplace in the evening.

"We spent a night there with my wife's family and parents. It was a very beautifully kept home. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay complete with a wood fireplace. Hospitality was great and it was very clean." - Alan
