University Circle House (formerly known as University Circle Bed and Breakfast) - Bed & breakfast in Cleveland - 1575 E 108th St, USA

This was my first experience with a bed and breakfast, I was a little nervous, but immediately upon arrival I felt comfortable. My husband and I were welcomed by Toni (hostess) and Gary (owner)...they made us feel at home. The house is clean, well kept, and nicely decorated. The rooms are spacious, private bathrooms, and adequate closet space. Now for the best part of the experience, breakfast was delicious!!! Toni prepared and served breakfast with love. We had never traveled to Cleveland, so didn't know where to go or what to do. Gary and Toni suggested sites to see and places to eat, all were excellent. We will definitely stay here again.

Gary is the man! I had such a wonderful time at his bed and breakfast, in no small part because of his hosting. The food was excellent – some of the best breakfasts I've had, and the house was gorgeous. The art was tasteful and the rooms were luxurious feeling. It's walking distance from all of University Circle, which turned out to be my favorite part of Cleveland. I also got to meet some other folks who were staying at the B&B, mostly at breakfast, and it was cool to talk with folks who were there from all over.

The house is a period house from the early 1900's with many of its detailed charms. It has a parking in the back for about 5 or 6 cars accessed via a narrow driveway.||When we met Gary the proprietor/manager he welcomed us very warmly making us feel we were visiting a friend. We talked for a while getting to know one another because after all this is his house and he is accommodating us. As we were talking, the room got prepared and ready for us. Our room was very roomy, clean with a private bathroom and bathtub/shower which we were not expecting otherwise, as some of the rooms have to share a common bathroom and we would not have appreciated that. Our accommodations had a free wi-fi and parking with the included breakfast. The room gave the feeling of being in a friend's house.||Most of the evenings there were gatherings and meeting of pleasant people in the living room who were very friendly and seemed to enjoy themselves for special occasions.||Chatting with Gary was very pleasant and charming. He asked us our choice of breakfast for every morning and the time we would like to be served and whether we had any allergies, etc. - very unexpected. The coffee was excellent and the breakfast was good, basic and nutritious. ||Gary made us feel very welcome and likewise we enjoyed his company during breakfast.||The location was excellent, being within walking distance to CWRU and CIM, to museums, botanical gardens, and the world renowned Severance Hall, the home of The Cleveland Orchestra. Little Italy with its fine dining was perhaps 15-20 min. walk.||All in all we had a wonderful first B&B experience. Thank you Gary for receiving us into your home.

My husband and I drove up to Ohio in order to go to an appointment at the Cleveland Clinic, and this bed and breakfast is absolutely phenomenal. The house is beautiful, and the rooms are clean and comfortable. There is a common area for relaxing, as well as for eating the (absolutely delicious) complimentary breakfast. The owners are very friendly, and were generously willing to accomodate our awkward scheduling with CC. The bnb frequently houses long-term students from the university, so it will be more crowded diring the school semester, but we hope to see if we can still secure a room for our future visits. ||||All in all, a fantastic location with incredibly convenient access to nearby restaurants, parks, attractions, and, of course, the Cleveland Clinic.

I stayed three nights and four days at the University Circle B&B. Gary, the owner is a great guy, a great host and a great conversationalist. The house is very inviting and comfotable. The breakfasts were delicious! If you are visiting the art, natural history, or Cleveland history museum or the botanical gardens, the location is ideal. For a great dinner or lunch, check out L’Albatros, which just a 10 minute walk away.

Warm and friendly owner goes above and beyond to please. Had a lovely stay. We came for a family wedding and discovered there is so much to see and do in Cleveland. Museums (art, history, science), botanical gardens, and an interesting music scene made us realize we need to come back for a longer stay -- and we'll stay at this lovely bed and breakfast when we do. We enjoyed delicious and nourishing breakfasts surrounded by beautiful artwork and landscaping that allows you to forget you're in a city.

The bed and breakfast is located in a great location for visiting the Cleveland Museum of Art, the botanical garden and the natural history museum. The place was clean and the breakfast was good. However, I like to stay at bed and breakfasts because of the interaction with the hosts. The woman who greeted us knew nothing about the museums or much about the local area. She ran our credit card and was gone. The room was ok, but only one towel for me and my husband in the bedroom (we found another one in the hall closet) and although there was plenty of toilet paper in the bathroom, none of it was on the roll. We kind of felt like afterthoughts. It was in a great location for what we wanted to do, so we might stay here again.

Gary was a great host of a beautifully decorated bed and breakfast. He took us out to a night club with live music and good food. We enjoyed a delicious breakfast each morning along with his other guests which we enjoyed. Gary has a wonderful gift of bringing interesting people together for stimulating conversation and effortless interaction. He has a way of making you feel like family. We had a great time.|Ruth R.|
