Breakfast wasn’t my cup of tea (I’m really picky) but everything else was great. My room was in the front of the house, closest to the street so it did get a little noisy. Service was great though. Nice property.

Questions about Benjamin Ellis House Bed & Breakfast

What time is check-in and check-out at Benjamin Ellis House Bed & Breakfast?

Check-in is from 3:00 PM. Check-out is by 11:00 AM. If you're arriving late, tell us and we'll ask the property to hold the room.

Does Benjamin Ellis House Bed & Breakfast allow pets?

No — the property states that pets are not allowed.

Is there parking at Benjamin Ellis House Bed & Breakfast?

Parking is listed among the property's facilities. Whether it's free and whether a space can be reserved varies, so we check it against your dates rather than promise it here.

Is breakfast included at Benjamin Ellis House Bed & Breakfast?

Breakfast is offered at the property. Whether it's included depends on the rate — the board type is shown on each room once you put your dates in.

Does Benjamin Ellis House Bed & Breakfast have Wi-Fi?

Yes — internet access is listed among the property's facilities.

Does Benjamin Ellis House Bed & Breakfast have wheelchair accessible rooms?

The property lists step-free or accessible facilities. That flag is the one least able to settle the question: a hotel can carry it and still have a step at the entrance, or a bath rather than a roll-in shower, and it does not say whether the accessible room is free on your dates. Tell us what you need and we'll ask the property directly rather than reading you the flag.

How do I book Benjamin Ellis House Bed & Breakfast?

Put your dates in above and book online, or call (888) 789-8585 and we'll do it for you — including things a booking form can't handle, like a block of rooms, a monthly rate or an invoice for your employer.
