The J Palen House was an unexpectedly wonderful discovery for us. We have stayed in various B&B’s in the Ohio City area of Cleveland, and the J Palen House is clearly the best of them.

We stayed here for our honeymoon a few weeks ago and it was absolutely amazing. The rooms were super clean, the staff was engaged and accommodating, and it was just so cozy and comfortable it didn't "feel" like we were staying in a big city. We stayed off thr main house but it was still conveniently located to everything in the market district. I wished it had been more clear the way breakfast was served in our room the day before and then we had to heat it up in the AM, but it was a minor confusion. The only thing I wished for the entire weekend was more hot water. Once the jacuzzi tub was mostly full, there was no hot water for the rest of the night (and the tub could've been fuller). We will definitely be back for an anniversary and highly recommend this place for a cozy getaway.

This was our second time staying at JPalen!
Diane and Doug are amazing hosts and treated us and our great friends with first class hospitality!
This is by far the best B&B we have ever stayed at!
