This was such a pleasant surprise, staying at the Ware Street Inn. Everything was done to perfection, from the cooking to the decor. Even so, it is totally relaxing and not "stuffy" at all. Jan and staff go the extra mile!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here!! So happy there were no hotel rooms available and we were able to get the last room as we will definitely come back. Beautiful surroundings and the Inn is impecably clean and inviting. Jan was wonderful and our breakfasts were very tasty!! For what we spent here and had provided - I don't thnik I would ever stay in a hotel again. GREAT job Can't wait to come back!!!

We needed a place to stay near Bates when picking up our daughter at a summer dance camp. The choice was a chain hotel or the Ware St Inn. Are we glad we chose the latter! It is a beautiful old house directly adjacent to the Bates campus. The grounds and gardens are delightful and the house itself is beautiful -- one of those places you drive by and wonder what it's like inside. We immediately felt at home. Our room (Daisy's Room) was bright, spacious and airy. The breakfast was sublime. Fellow guests were cultured and engaging. Every detail was taken care of. Not a word of complaint. In fact, it was almost worth the trip. Don't hesitate: if you're headed to Lewiston-Auburn, this is the place to be!

Felt like staying in the comfortable home of a friend. Excellent bed (I slept great), spacious room, relaxed atmosphere with plenty of "public" spaces to relax in including full use of computer and printer (plus wifi for my iPhone), really nice folks with a mellow attitude, and outstanding oatmeal apple pancakes with warm apple syrup. Really good coffee, too. I couldn't ask for more. Right across the street from Bates College.

This was our second visit to the Ware Street Inn for the purpose of going to the festival Moxie Days in Lisbon Falls. The Inn is just perfect...great rooms, all the amenities and lovely views, and a wonderful place to sit outside or inside and enjoy the grounds. Breakfast was a treat of apple pancakes on Sunday. Bates College across the road is a perfect place for a stroll. The host and hostess are totally friendly and offer directions to whereever. This is what you hope for but rarely find at B&B's! It's only a short drive to Lisbon Falls and all the Moxie fun.

My first time at the Ware Street Inn was excellent. The rooms are full of interest, the gardens beautiful, and Jan's breakfasts worth coming back for seconds if you just had room. Even the towels are displayed creatively. A real jewel in Lewiston.

I visited the Ware Street Inn while in Lewiston for business. The wireless internet worked but did not accept my VPN (SecurID) login. The breakfast was wonderful and the innkeepers pretty much leave you alone. The pancake breakfast was outstanding. The only problem is coffee was not available early enough for me but a quick ride to the local Dunkin Donuts resolved that. Only a few minutes away. My room was upgraded at no additional cost. The bed was very comfy and so was the room. Clean, neat just great. Would stay there again.

Innkeeper Response
Happy to have our techie check on the VPN situation--was unaware of that issue. Also happy to put a fresh carafe of coffee out late at night so that it'll be hot and available early in the a.m.--always offer to do that when we're aware of the desire. Just ask...we're pretty accommodating. We enjoyed her visit!
