Bed Breakfasts in Salem, MA

Christine, Stauntons is like staying on Chicago's Gold Coast.......It would have been the premier neighborhood in the period of the Protestant Ascendancy of 19 th. Century Ireland. It's like living in a real life Masterpiece Theater "Upstairs/Downstairs town-home. Even today the Residence of the Catholic Cardinal of Ireland is only 3 doors down the street, also on the Green. Across the street (Park) visit the Shelbourne Hotel for a drink in the Horseshoe Bar......then before leaving the hotel go back into the lobby and take the stairs that wrap around the steel cage elevator and walk-up 2 or 3 floors.....each floor has a landing 1/2 way up.....so in 3 floors you will hit 5 landings. On each one is a magnificent antique piece of furniture from the 1800's. At least it was like that the last time i was there (about 10 yrs. ago) In this country we think something is old if it was made before the 1950's. Have a Great Time, & A Happy New Year. Jim
