Gillen House Bed and Breakfast Accessibility Policy

The Gillen House Bed and Breakfast, located in Maxeys Georgia, warmly welcomes all guests.

However, due to the historic significance of our building, the Inn is not completely wheelchair accessible. Removal of necessary physical barriers for complete accessibility is not readily achievable as such removal would threaten or destroy the historic significance of the property.

The physical barriers include the following:

● The walkway from the parking to the front door has a level change.

● Elevated access requires climbing 6 or more steps.

● All guest rooms are located on the second floor.

● Due to the historic nature of the building, the interior structure includes narrow hallways and doorways that do not all accommodate a wheelchair.

● There is no elevator

● No rooms include a roll in shower

Accessible Accommodation(s):

So all guests can enjoy The Gillen House Bed and Breakfast, steps have been taken to remove barriers where possible at our property. We offer the following for those with disabilities or limited disabilities:

● Wheelchair access to The Gillen House Bed and Breakfast dining areas and common areas are limited for those with disabilities.

● With 24-hour notice, we can also accommodate special diets including vegetarian, vegan, dairy-free, gluten-free, low-carb and low-fat.

Our goal is to ensure that anyone who wishes to visit The Gillen House Bed and Breakfast can do so, regardless of their physical abilities. Among the ways we strive to comply with the ADA:

1. It is our standard operating procedure that individuals with disabilities can make reservations for an accommodation during the same hours and in the same manner as individuals who do not have disabilities.

2. We have identified and described features as well as physical barriers with enough detail to allow individuals with disabilities to determine independently whether a given guest room meets their accessibility needs.

3. We guarantee that a guest room, once reserved, is held for the reserving customer and is removed from all reservation systems.

4. Guests with legitimate service dogs will be provided access to all areas of the inn where members of the public are allowed to go.
