Stone Gables Inn

Stone Gables was exactly what we were looking for on our weeknight stay to the Ohio City area of Cleveland. Free secure parking. Many great restaurants within 1/2 mile that are easy to walk to. Free WiFi that worked well. Free and plentiful coffee available in the morning. We never got face to face with our hosts but they communicated via text messages and let us know how to reach them if we had any issue or questions. The home is beautifully restored. It is also very clean and had a good bathroom. Our room had a nice shower and whirlpool tub (didn't use the whirlpool so can't rate that). Toilets worked well, etc. The sheets and towels felt luxurious. The house itself seemed secure to me. You need a code to enter the house. Then another code to enter you own bedroom/bathroom area. There are common areas. I think 3 of the 5 rooms were booked the night we stayed and we never heard or saw anyone. It was very quiet. But I can see how if it was full of noisy people hanging out in common areas that could conceivably be an issue. There was a fridge in one of the common areas and we used that to store some cold stuff we had with us. The mattress was slightly softer than I prefer but it was not a problem for me/us. There are a lot of stairs. You will have to carry your bags up multiple sets of stairs, and the first set is outdoors. That was no problem for us but could be an issue for some people. We plan to stay here again on our next trip up to this area.

My husband and I spent 1 night at the Stone Gables. It was a great location, easily walkable to restaurants and The Bop Stop where we enjoyed a jazz performance. We loved the easy access and privacy. Our room was located on the second floor with an adjacent common room, which was a nice place to sit and read. The common kitchen/dining area on the first floor was well appointed and huge! My biggest complaint would be the bathroom in our room. The tub and sink were not in great shape and the paint job was sketchy, with missed areas where fixtures had been removed. It just gave a less than 5-star aesthetic. Also, the bed was beautiful, but the mattress was not super comfortable to me. But that is all relative as different desires apply. Overall, a pleasant stay! The host was prompt with information and friendly.

Very clean and comfortable. Good location. Bed was great.
