I will start with the good...then the bad. Its located in a very nice section of the city. Parking can be a challange on the weekends. We did enjoy the decor of the place, photos of the site are true to the sight. I read in other reviews about the following... AND it happened to us also. Owner does take... more

I see most of the other reviews for this Bed and Breakfast are similar to ours. We enjoyed it very much, and happily recommend it. Those who didn’t enjoy it don’t seem to “get it.” A Bed and Breakfast is NOT a luxury hotel. They typically don’t have valet parking, room service or bell boys. If you want all of... more

This was the worst B&B we ever stayed at. Our first morning, we requested Breakfast at 8. We came down at 8, there was no sign of the owner or breakfast. We finally knocked on her private door, and she was still asleep. The next morning, she did actually get up on time to cook us a very unimaginative and... more

i just wanted to drop you a line to let you know how very much we enjoyed staying at your place over the weekend. it was every bit as lovely as we thought it would be. you should be proud of the establishment youv'e built. when we walked in the door we were awed by the spirit that greeted us.... more

My wife and I made reservations to stay at the Phoenix Risin' Bed and Breakfast owned by Janice Orr. We arrived for our stay the Sunday of Presedential Inauguration week. The amenities and condition of the Inn are not as depicted on their website. We left after staying only one night of a reserved and pre-payed 6 nights. My wife... more

First, we are open all year. Valentine's Day 2009 marked our 9th year in business. In that time we've received six (6) complaints, including this one. If we provided the type of service alleged, we would have been out of business years ago. We have repeat customers and many guests are referred by previous guests. The writer requested a refund,...

Dirty, dank, disappointing. These three words sum up my impression of Phoenix Risin' Bed and Breakfast in Baltimore, MD, June 2008. Although my partner---here from Australia for the summer----and I had high hopes of a relaxing in an historic American neighborhood, we found the accommodations so deplorable that we decided to leave and stay somewhere else in the city. We... more

Sorry for the delay in responding, but we've been VERY BUSY. We were told by the various reservation services that we use to expect this type of review if we decided not to refund a guest's deposit. However, as a matter of principal we decided not to refund the reviewer's deposit.. We only wish that the reviewer posted a review...

I am the Proprietor of Lady Neptune B&B Inn in Hampton, VA. Since my husband and I were going to be in the Baltimore area, I decided to stay at Phoenix Risin' B&B because I had heard about it. Frankly, I was curious to know why it continues to receive great ratings from national magazines and websites like Essence, Black... more

I booked this B&B for a Mother's Day weekend getaway for my wife and I this past May and I must say I was slightly underwhelmed from the first moments. The inn keeper took about 20 minutes to greet us downstairs, she was still getting our room ready. The problem with that was I was running about an hour late... more

Management response from

We are sorry to read that the reviewer was somewhat disappointed with his stay. He was upset that he had to wait until someone opened the door to let he and his wife in. As we are an urban B&B, our doors are always locked (the front door is 5 steps from the sidewalk). Plus, our inn is huge. Guests...

I travel frequently. When I travel to the East Coast, particularly the Washington/Baltimore Metropolitan area, Phoenix Risin is my lodging destination. I have stayed there more than 8 times, having just returned this month. There are 4 main reasons that I am a repeat customer: The hospitality, arework, breakfasts and the sheets. As she always does, the Innkeeper, Janice Orr,... more

I had never been to a b+b before and decided to spend Easter weekend at Risin’ Phoenix. I booked & paid for the room (it is policy to pre-pay for a holiday weekend) before seeing the comments below. Once I read them I immediately spoke to the owner about my concerns and disappointment. She assured me that they were not... more
