    Our stay at the J. Palen house was the best experience with overnight accommodations that we've ever had. The room that we stayed in (Webster Room) was beautifully decorated and absolutely spotless. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable. The surrounding area is full of restaurants and things to do. Finally, the three course breakfast was fantastic! Will definitely be staying there again!

    The hosts of the J. Palen House are extremely gracious and hospitable. We informed them that our arrival would be later than their check in time and they were very accommodating to this alteration. The rooms are impeccably clean and spacious. The decor is very comfortable. The breakfasts are scrumptious! The hosts were quite accommodating to our dietary preferences. We plan to visit Cleveland, again, and will make our reservations at the J. Palen House.
