An attractive building in an interesting area. Computer wasn't working, so there was a little trouble checking in but it was resolved quickly and graciously. Absolutely fantastic meal at L'Abatros, around the corner... worth a drive to Cleveland for that! Overall very pleasant stay.

It was a cute and quiet property . Bar was closed and there were some renovations going on but overall it was a nice stay. I did expect the rooms to have been a little cleaner as there was hair in the shower but overall it was nice

Gem of CLE in University Circle.
What a fantastic little place nestled in the middle of all the museums in Cleveland. Everything was in walking distance! The breakfast was delicious and much better than any other continental breakfast included in the stay amongst other hotels I’ve stayed at. An absolute treat.

The Inn is charming and the location is wonderful. Great breakfast - many choices, blueberry scones that had a crisp coating, fresh fruit bowl - pineapple, orange slices, melon,grapes, etc, oatmeal and Greek yogurt with amazing toppings.

A beautiful 1910 house with elegant mansion decor on University Circle—an oasis in the middle of the city. A concierge greeted us. Our room was well-appointed, clean, and quiet; the bed was comfortable; and we liked the banquette where we could place most of our luggage for easy access. The VIP gift was a card for a free drink in the charming small bar on the main floor, and we enjoyed the experience. At breakfast we appreciated the real silverware and plates and the enclosed porch seating. We would return here in a trice.

Really neat place. The hotel staff was friendly and courteous. There was a full floor remodel going on, but it didn't start until after 9am and wrapped up daily around 5pm. Great location for museums, etc. Breakfast was delicious. We will definitely be returning.
