“Fantastic Experience!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed February 16, 2013

We had to check in late and they were great about leaving us a lockbox with keys and instructions. They left out tea and hot chocolate and cookies for us, and it was a great welcome! The room was clean and warm and the double whirlpool tub is HUGE! The breakfast was delicious and the staff was very courteous. I think we stayed on a night that was a full house and it was very quiet.
It was a charming little B&B and we can't wait to go back!

“Excellent weekend get away from DC”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 31, 2013

We were extremely happy with the experience from pre-arrival communications through check out. We were in the Brothers Grimm suite, which had a private bath down the hall from the room. Knowing this in advance made it reasonable and worth it due to the extremely nice bedroom and the wonderful breakfasts. Safe neighborhood with many places to eat and walk around. Also very convenient to accessing other sights in Baltimore. We made a weekend of visting the B&O Railroad Museum, Fells Point, Little Italy, the Museum at the Maryland Historical Society, and had Saturday night tickets for a performance at the Meyerhof. Such a fun weekend and all the better with the excellent expereince with this B&B.

We had to arrive late on Friday evening, but after hours check in was easy and straight forward. Parking provided across the street and easy to access. We will definitely be returning for another weekend get away.

Room Tip: The Edgar Allen Poe Suite looked great (with en suite bath), but was unavailable for both nights we...

“People who gave anything but 5 stars must have hit the wrong number”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 9, 2013 via mobile

This bed and breakfast was fantastic! They allowed us to check in early and gave us a parking pass for right around the corner. The location was perfect; we didn't even need to move our car at all considering everything was walking distance. At one point I was too happy to talk. We woke up to some crazy awesome wholesome breakfast then waited a bit for Lauren to prepare a picnic for us at 12 which we had on top of federal hill (go there) which overlooks the harbor. Our room was clean when we got back along with a bag of other awesome treats. The staff really makes everything easier for you and is constantly making these ridiculously awesome baked goods. There is a tea/ coffee table 24/7 and a free mini fridge with water,soda, and beer. The sleep number bed was super comfortable and all sheets and towels were superior quality. It truly was a luxurious yet comfortable and homey experience!

“Near Baltimore Inner Harbor, lovely”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 6, 2013

This B&B is within a few blocks of the Inner Harbor. Entrance on S. Charles St however our 1st floor, ensuite room (Hickory Vale) had a door that opened on Montgomery St where we could stop for unloading/loading. Parking space provided a short distance away. Friendly, helpful hosts who provided extras but were not intrusive. A pitcher of white Sangria, soft drinks and bottled water, homemade cookies, water kettle/tea/coffee all available at no charge in the breakfast room. Pristine bedroom, combination of modern white walls and formal furniture (poster bed with lace canopy), and a cozy, welcoming feel in the public areas. Quiet, no problem sleeping on a weekend nights. Neighborhood felt safe with normal care taken when in an urban area (We are former Baltimoreans.) We give Scarborough Faire a big thumbs up.

Room Tip: 1st floor room with private exit to/entrance from Montgomery Street.

“Claire59”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 4, 2013

We stayed at the Scarborough Fair the night before Christmas Eve. We needed some RR before the holilday festivities started. How relaxing! Enjoyed waking up to the smells of breakfast which was delicious. The service was friendly and made you feel like family. It's location to close to almost all activities in the Inner Harbor. The rooms are clean and nicely decorated. We will certainly return.

Room Tip: Loved the room with the jacuzzi.
