    I tag along with my hubby on some of his business trips, and our stay at Six Acres was one of those trips. He planned to stay at a hotel (borring), so I suggested A B&B; why stay somewhere that is cold and impersonal, when we could stay somewhere cozy, warm, welcoming, and get a homemade breakfast? Six Acres exceeded all expectations! Mark, our night innkeeper is full of the rich history surrounding Six Acres, and its part in the Underground Railroad. Mona, our breakfast chef made the most fantastic breakfast (yummy souff

    some things great, some things could have been better

    The room was even lovlier than the pictures, and the view outside the bay window was beautiful. The bed and bathtub were enormous, and the bathroom was bigger than my dining room back home. I loved the cushy bathrobe on the hook in the bathroom. However, some little things were missing that should have been there: no soap, no handcreams or shampoos or bubble baths. There was a basket but it was empty. They found me some things after I asked, but they seemed to be in short supply. And the room smelled musty because there was a leak in the ceiling of the laundry room next door. The food was delicious, although dinner cost $10.00 more than the website said it would. The staff brought me a fudge brownie with a lit candle in it, after dinner, and sang "Happy Birthday" when they realized it was my birthday. That was a thoughtful, wonderful touch. I also got a delightful impromptu tour and history from one of the managers, when I asked about the connection of the house to the Underground Railroad. Our conversations, that night and the next morning, were the highlight of my visit. All in all, I enjoyed my stay very much. A couple little details could have made it even better, but I did come on the off season and there was just a skeleton crew available. The plusses by far outweighed the minusses.

    Beautiful!!

    My Girlfriends and I selected Six Acres because we wanted a chance to get together and spend time but also be in the city for great food! Not only were our rooms nice and cozy....we had a awesome time and Kristin and Mona were great cooks! Mona sang songs from the Underground Railroad after breakfast and really gave us an awesome history lesson. Six Acres is more than just a bed and breakfast because the innkeeper and her staff are so knowledgeable about the history of the house and Cincinnati during that time. I recommend this place for anyone to anyone who love history, young and old!!!!

    Six Acres is AWESOME!!!!!

    Kristin is AWESOME. We had a great time and Kristin made us feel right at home. I would recommend this Bed and Breakfast for everyone. We also recommend taking the Underground Railroad Tour. We could not make the whole tour during our stay but plan to go back!!!
