Stayed 3 nights with my toddler and teenager along side mom from Florida and sister's family from Texas we found the best accomodations in the J. Palen House. The lovely ground floor living and dining rooms were great for our gatherings and playing board games (some provided at the house), the private rooms were very comfy, well appointed and spacous,... more

My husband and I recently visited Cleveland for a wedding. Looking for something other than a predictable stay at the local Marriott, we sought out a bed and breakfast. Once again our research on Trip Advisor did not disappoint. The J. Palen House is everything a B&B should be. As a matter of fact, on all counts it exceeded our... more

J Palen House is my favorite B&B. I've stayed in the loft twice and will definitely return. Reasons: attention to detail, comfort, unique decor, delicious breakfasts, unique neighborhood, and a truly outstanding inn keeper- Scott West! more

Located minutes from downtown Cleveland, the J. Palen House is tucked away on one of the quiet tree-lined residential streets in the historic district of Ohio City. Accommodations are spacious and beautifully decorated. Inkeeper Scott does a wonderful job of making guests feel welcome and comfortable. He is also a great cook, and his three course breakfast, served in the... more

Hand's down, this is the best place to stay while visiting Cleveland. This Victorian B&B is nestled in among well-kept, stately and inviting old (mid 19th century) homes. Tree-lined streets makes this place so inviting, especially in the fall. Within a couple blocks you can find great restaurants & bars, an enormous old-world indoor-outdoor market and coffee shops. Scott, the... more

This was my first time to a bed and breakfast. This place was great. My husband and I loved it. My standards for B&B's will now be held high. There was so much attention to detail. The house was so clean, the sheets so soft, a luxurious bed, balcony, and so much more. I can't say enough about the breakfast,... more

Our stay was from April 5-8 2009 in the Loft suite. It's located in the back of another house about a block away from the main house, but don't let that fact sway your decision to choose this particular room. It's like an efficiency apartment, complete with fully equipped kitchen with new and clean appliances, cute dishware, assorted teas, snacks... more

I am saddened and anguished to point of seeking legal remedies after my recent stay at JPalen house. The visit and facilities were lovely, the inn keeper Scott one the the best. When we returned home after a short weekend stay we received notice that we were being charged $150 for "extra cleaning". The owner informed us that a smell... more

We went to Cleveland in the dead of winter to see Dancing With the Stars for my birthday. But instead of that being the most impressive thing about our getaway, it turned out to be our stay at J Palen House. My husband arranged everything in advance with Scott, the Innkeeper, in order to surprise me. And surprise me they... more
