My wife and I recently stayed at The Roost. Very charming Bed and Breakfast! We had the Sage suite. Loved it! We also were able to peek at the other rooms, too. They are impeccable! We were in Appleton for our 20th wedding anniversary and attended a show at the Fox Cities Performing Arts Center (Moulin Rouge). The Roost was close to dinner and the PAC. The breakfast is worth it. Megan, the assistant Inn Keeper, was available for anything we needed. She is super friendly and wants you to really enjoy your stay at the Roost. She prepared the breakfast the next day, which was excellent and we did not leave hungry! Well done, Megan! Contact me anytime if you have questions. I will share our experience - bmarkwald@usm.org

Property has so much potential, unfortunately upkeep, mostly of the grounds and gardens is lacking. Rooms are adequately clean, but carpet is quite stained, light wasn’t working in our room, and outlets were at a premium. The assistant innkeeper was quite responsive and kind, especially with the minor issues of the light and needing an extension cord due to lack of outlets, however the larger problems lie in some of the owner’s choices. We originally had one of the smaller rooms as this was a quick visit, but both desks had appliances (coffee maker and fixings on one, and toaster oven on the other) so there was no place to set my own belongings on. There was a lovely soaking tub, and separate shower in another room, but only 2 towels and only 1 makeup wash cloth. When we unfortunately had a furry visitor scare us after we were ready for bed, we were promptly moved to another, much larger suite. This one had plenty of towels, an open desk, but no coffee maker. The parlor was lovely, with a coffee maker, to go treats, pizza oven and microwave, but unfortunately the power went out in that room when making coffee and heating up our leftovers. Word of caution if you book on this site, full hot breakfast is not included. Overall fair nights rest, comfortable bed (but no top sheet), and kind worker. We were able to see the other rooms, and would highly recommend the Bella suite for more space, but interestingly no appliances in that one either.

Sorry, not good

Grounds very unkempt, stains in carpet, ants and spiders in room. Shower head not working properly, no information in room about anything (tv, fireplace, literally nothing). According to hostess, breakfast not included because of booking through Expedia, so extra $20 apiece for breakfast. And I’m being kind in my review.

This place is wonderful! The breakfast was amazing, it was delicious and more than what we could eat. Anyone that doesn't stay for the breakfast is missing out. The hosts are very friendly and accommodating. Any extra amenities are available there. They had movies, books, wine, handmade soap and more. Most times you can't find that at hotels. My husband and I were looking for some place to stay the night and were originally looking at The Copperleaf hotel (which is very nice too). They were booked and most of the other hotels are near highway 41 by the Fox River Mall. Because we live out in the country, I wanted somewhere that had less noise from traffic so I could sleep better. I did a search for places to stay and saw this bed and breakfast. It was close to down town and the Darboy area. The bed was comfortable and our room felt like home, how it is decorated is warm and inviting. During the summer it has a beautiful yard and gazebo to take advantage of. This is something you don't get at a hotel. Both of us enjoyed our stay and talked about going back soon. De Ann is a great host and her pet dog is so friendly. Megan greeted us when we arrived and was wonderful as welll. I was sad to leave.
