Really enjoyed our stay in "The Roost." A relaxing retreat with everything you could need for your comfort. Enjoyable court yard. Close to many restaurants within walking distance. Check out Crop in what was formerly a bank.The West Market is also a must see. Diane was warm and welcoming. Excellent breakfast each day! Would not hesitate to stay again!

We were met in a friendly manor. We stayed in Palin's Room, which is separate from the main house. We liked that because the little loft we stayed in was quiet and cozy. Full kitchen available. Very clean. Awesome huge jacuzzi tub. Super comfy bed. Walking distance to many restaurants. Nice breakfast served a block away at main house.

When we requested a quote for an extended stay for our large group, the cost & the details J Palen gave us sounded reasonable. After further discussion, we decided to proceed. When we made the reservation, however, the cost was $75 more, due to a cleaning fee they failed to mention. When we pointed out this fee wasn't in the... More

After several discussions about what accommodations might be appropriate for your group you selected what might fit your group. After that process a confirmation of dates and policies were sent to the group. It was certainly your choice not to agree to or be willing to accept the private residence requirements and restrictions. There were never any charges made for... More

My husband and I stayed here on two different occasions. We had beautiful rooms both times, and the breakfast was fantastic! Diane was very helpful on things to do in the area. She recommended great places to eat. We will be staying here whenever we find ourselves in Cleveland overnight.

We can't wait to go back for another stay in such a special place; beautiful accomodations, friendly, great location, amazing breakfast and hosts who share the best of their town with you. You will NOT be disappointed.

My wife and I recently stayed at the J. Palen House for our anniversary. We stayed in a two story apartment called the Roost. It turns out to have been a Blacksmith shop in it's day and now serves as one of the available rooms for the Palen House B&B. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The staff was very helpful... More

A co-worker and I on an overnight trip to Cleveland each had a beautiful room and stay at the J. Palen House in the "Ohio City" section of Cleveland. The location was selected for its proximity to our business, however the B & B is within a 3 minute walk to the Westside Market, and a great selection of restaurants... More

We stayed at the main house. Beautiful antiques and confortable living spaces were everywhere. It was very well centered in Ohio City walking distance from the Brewery, West Side Market and downtown. We were there when the transit system was hosting a fair so we were able to see some street entertainment and street markets, and auto show and try... More

We spent one night at the J. Palen House. After a stressful winter, this was a nice overnight treat. Even though we live locally, it was nice to get away from the daily routine and have someone take care of us. The location is superb and walking distance from the West Side Market. Our room was quiet, warm and cozy.... More

My boyfriend and I just returned from a long weekend at J Palen House and can't say enough good things!! We stayed in The Retreat and it is hands down one of the best places I have ever stayed. The decor is tasteful and somewhat timeless and not stuffy and outdated like many B&B's. The location is superb! Can't beat... More
