Excellent stay
I absolutely loved staying at this guesthouse. It felt like staying with locals instead of at an impersonal hotel. The owner/manager did everything she could to make sure we had what we needed.

This was a very price-conscious, clean, safe place to stay while we visited colleges in the area. There is street parking and it's perfectly safe. The wifi is fast and free. The security is excellent. The owner is really lovely and goes above and beyond to make sure you have everything you need for your stay!

Quaint BnB with an amazing host
Don't let the reviews keep you away from this diamond in the rough. It is a quaint BnB in an historic district minutes from The Mann. Yin is an excellent host and made sure all of our needs were met and even offered fresh breakfast each morning. It was very clean. We enjoyed out stay and will be booking here again!

I would highly recommend staying with Yin at Fairmount House. She was so attentive and kind - even bought me some milk for my tea and left me goodies like fresh fruit as well as all the basics like coffee and tea. It was a very quiet environment in a lovely, safe, walkable area of town. Overall, I'd highly recommend - way better than a hotel, in my opinion.

We had a wonderful stay while we were here. Our host Yin was super accommodating and made sure we had everything we needed to have a safe and comfortable stay. Most notably she made sure we understood how the door locking system worked and that we were comfortable in our rooms. Everything was very clean and tidy. Location is good - 5 min drive from the Mann Center. Overall we had a great experience and would definitely come back here again!
