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!

4-night trip

10/10

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!
2-night trip

10/10

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.
4-night trip

10/10

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!
1-night trip

10/10

I loved everything about my stay at Fairmount House! Yin was so welcoming and hospitable! I felt very safe and secure staying there. I stayed to attend a concert and it was only a 6 min drive to the venue. So if you are attending a concert at The Mann Center, I would highly recommend staying at The Fairmount House! ☺️
1-night trip

10/10

Our stay at the Fairmount House was very comfortable. The master bedroom with the private bedroom was ideal for the weekend getaway that we took while going to a concert nearby at the Mann Center. The walk itself to the venue is about 30 mins but very quick by Uber if you don't have a car. The host was very kind and hospitable. I would definitely consider staying here again. Thank you!
