It is unfortunate to feel compelled to leave unfavorable comments. The photos re misleading. The facility has \"seen better days.\" There NO restaurant on site. There are minimal window treatments, bedding, and decorative features..unlike the photos. There is a history connected to the building but no information about it except an article tacked on the wall in a side -dark-hallway. Many history books stacked everywhere...unneeded.
Shared bath-shower curtain rod..hanging down loose from the wall. hair dyer base attached to the wall--no hair dryer. Weekend breakfast served at 9:30 AM--all gone before we arrived at 10:15! Found it necessary to make my own coffee the next morning..not out when promised. At best a \"budget BNB\" but not what the site depicts or promotes.

Beautiful home, amazing history. Loved Charles the innkeeper. Very clean, wonderful breakfast. A few things could be updated, for instance cracked light swtich cover in bathroom and mount for hairdryer that is no longer there. could be removed.....a few other small things, but add up to a slightly worn feel. However, like I said, very clean and beautiful and having a caring, attentive innkeeper in house is wonderful! Very special. Will return.

Great historic home with a good story to tell and history to preserve. Unfortunately we were disappointed in the small size of the bedroom and poor lighting for reading in bed; bathroom door would not close all the way. Breakfast not served until 9:30 so we did not wait around either day we were there.

Wonderful property and wonderful staff who treat guests like family! This place needs to be on the National Historic Register due to its importance as part of the underground railroad.

This is a unique and historically significant property as it was a stop on the Underground Railroad. Charles, the host, will lovingly tell you all about it! My family and I felt welcomed and enjoyed the communal breakfast with a wedding party that was also staying there. Don’t come here if you’re looking for a schmancy spa-type place. Do come if you love people, history and supporting local small businesses.

Charles was a gracious host. He made sure we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay and always had a smile on his face and friendly conversation. This property is far enough away from downtown to avoid the hustle and bustle but close enough that getting down there when you want to is no problem. Charles also gave us great directions to get downtown with almost zero traffic. Breakfast was great! I would gladly stay here again.

Charles, the Innkeeper is the sole attraction and reason to come back. He is friendly, engaging, helpful, and a great storyteller and host. He explained the Inn was once a stop on the Underground Railroad. He serves a great breakfast and creates a real sense of community amongst guests. Everybody talks to each other and interacts. A very friendly vibe. It is a far more pleasant experience than contentiously standing in the waffle maker line at a Hampton Inn. Will definitely come back and stay here again.

We were extremely disappointed in our stay here and would never stay there again. The pictures looked so inviting and it was convenient and pet friendly! Upon arrival, someone took us to our room and it was in the \"guest house\" which looked NOTHING like the main house. It was old and badly in need of repair. Our room did not look like the pics-even the headboard was different. Paint was peeling, tiles in bathroom were cracked, toilet was not seated well, very few outlets and lamps, and had to buy our own water because there weren't even glasses or access to ice or anything. Some of the drawers wouldn't open and knobs fell off, and there were no hangers to hang our wedding attire in the half closet in the room. Only one key per room was available. We had the wrong wifi password and ran out of toilet paper (there was barely any on the one roll left for us) but we got both before we went to sleep. It took a walk to the main house and two phone calls (the number on the house that we were told to call did not work). Don't new guests get more than a few leftover sheets of tp? The one roll brought to us was small also. We bought our own the next day. Live and learn, private bathroom does not mean in your room. We had to go out in the hallway with another room's door right next to ours. It also doesn't mean it is only yours, since our tp disappeared the second day! Breakfast was great and hostess very pleasant though. Breakfast times were not communicated well.

Beautiful piece of history

We will stay here again for sure! This house is amazing but we stayed on the 7th acre in the second house. It is a very old house but the care taken to keep it clean is amazing. We rented for my daughter’s wedding and it was more than enough room for everyone and to get ready. It’s on a main drag but you’d never know it. House is fully accommodating and the beds are so comfy. The innkeepers were very attentive to our needs and made sure our stay was suitable. My mother and I quite enjoyed our chats with Charles. 10/10 would recommend.

Roll of the dice on your reservation

We booked our stay 3 months in advance and when we got there they didn't have our reservation in their system (they say that happens regularly with them and Hotels.com). Thankfully they were not full. The room we booked was not cleaned and we needed to get unpacked, so he offered a \"comparable room\". While it was fine, there wasn't even a chair to sit on.

Charles was very friendly and accommodating, which redeemed the stay a bit. Probably wouldn't stay there again as we don't want to chance not have a place to sleep.

He told us all about the history of the home and shared his own stories as well—you don’t get these kinds of personal touches at hotels!

Got locked into the 2nd floor for over 10 minutes with no key to get out.Man finally came with a key to get out. Stated they did not have a room with 2 Queen beds on property. Place is getting run down in certain areas. Refuses to refund my money. We had to find another place 2 miles away with 2 queen beds for another $286. RHIS PLACE IS A FRAUD= RENTER BEWARE

Gem Close to UC Yet Away from College Crazytown

This is one of the coolest places I've stayed while visiting kids attending UC. It's about a 4-mile drive from campus, through \"Northside\" - chalk full of great restaurants, cool shops, and an amazing used record store. Someone cancelled so the inntaker moved us to a larger room without us asking - it iwas HUGE. The mattresses were great. Breakfast is 100% from scratch and was amazing. You cannot beat the price and location. Tucked away on a nice greenspace. Kristen our host was so kind and caring and did everything to make us feel at home. I'll be back!!

When my husband and I arrived, we were told immediately that there was a problem and we could not have the room we reserved through Expedia. We were taken to the top floor of the annex building, which was woefully unfinished, not like the room pictures listed on the property's website.We walked past other rooms in the annex, finished nicely, doors open, unoccupied during our entire stay. The unfinished area seems to be the Expedia area. I have always had great experiences with Expedia and do not believe they are the problem, though the property places the blame on Expedia. The rooms were quiet and clean, Charles was very friendly, and breakfast was served.

My stay

I had a really nice time staying at Six Acres. At first, I wasn't too happy that I had to move my room during my stay, as they had a booking issue. I wanted to also have a bathroom that was attached to my room and was not able to once I switched rooms. The B&B is really quaint, and because it is old, it has some areas that need to be repaired. The window in my room was broken, and the toilet was also not on the hinges correctly. Some of the chairs were a little rickety. I thought Charles, the caretaker, was super sweet and a really good cook! He was very accessible and easygoing.

Think twice before reserving room here.

The bed and breakfast was locked on arrival at 4:20 PM. Called phone number on door and after a short time was met at the door by a polite and friendly gentleman. He was totally unaware of our reservation and was in fact doing repairs and painting a room. He had no rooms ready but suggested if we could return in an hour he could have a room prepared. The bed an breakfast was in total disarray which is to be expected when you are doing repair work but not when you are expecting guest. Partially undecorated Christmas tree in living room with clutter. There did not appear to be any other guest staying at the facility and we decided to go elsewhere and eventually found another place to stay later that evening. We are very unhappy and are amazed Hotels.com had an 8.5 out of 10 rating for this facility. Based on that recommendation we made \"no refund\" reservations. Makes us question the true value of the ratings on the website. This will probably be the last time we use hotels.com.

The property did not live up to the description on line. The materials in the room were old, linens, curtains, etc. An air conditioning unit was left on the floor of our room along with a loose extension cord.
TV/cable did not work in the room. Lots of strange noises at 4:30 in the morning prompted us to get out of bed and get on the road. The host was wonderful, but the property needs a lot of attention. Location is bad, off of an uphill stretch of road where the cars roar by at all hours. Turning in to the property is difficult because of the traffic and poor visibility of the entrance.

The place was closed up when I got there at 9pm. I had to call a number and wait to be let in. The TV cable wasn't working or the internet. Could not get them working. The tub had hairs in it and the water backed up to your ankles during a shower.
The breakfast was delicious which was the only bright spot. The manager of the property was very nice.

Will give a second chance.

The stay didn’t start out well. The first day we was told that they just whiched over from cable to a fire stick. But the fire stick was not set up. I was asked if I could do it which I didn’t have a problem with. When I tried to set it up, it would not hook to their WiFi. I tried about ten times with the same results. They gave me a second fire stick to try, but had the same results. The host even brought her fire stick from her room to see if it would would but no luck with hers. They then moved us to another building on the property to another room that had cable. This was a bigger room with a king bed that was a upgrade from the room we rented. We was told that we would have to move back to the other building once their maintenance person came in the next morning to fix the issue. Meaning I would have to carry mine and my wife’s bags across the parking lot for the 3rd time in less then 2 days. I wasn’t happy with this, but the host, Jill, was so sweet and felt bad about our situation. That made my frustration with this a little less irritating. The next morning we had breakfast the next morning and meet a wonderful couple. Jill gave us a tour of the grounds and brighten up our morning. Jill then told us that the owner felt bad and wanted to upgrade us to a suite in the first building we had moved from. So we did packed up our things again and headed across the parking lot to the building we originally book a room in. Saying all of this, because of Jill, we will be back.

This property was part of the Underground Railroad. I wish we'd heard a little more of the history. Our room ended up being on the 3rd floor. When we arrived, the air conditioning was not on and extremely hot up stairs. There were two portable air conditioning units, but as hot as it was, it took quite a bit of time to cool. The building itself is around 180 years old. The owner has been fixing it up, and even though there are patches on top of patches on the ceilings, it was quirky. The breakfast consisted of an egg casserole bake, some sweet bread, and fruit. The casserole was good and hot!. Jill, who was very personable

Charming B&B near Northside section of Cincinatti.

This was our first stay at Six Acres, which is a charming, historic, and nicely restored large house with many antique furniture pieces. The breakfasts were tasty, the hostess tried to accommodate guests dietary needs, and she was a delightful conversationalist.

Comfortable and welcoming

We enjoyed our stay at Six Acres - mostly because of the wonderful way our host, Chelli, brought the history of both the home and area alive for us. The home itself has been brought a long way back from the condition it was when they purchased it. It's not flawless, but it's gracious, comfortable and welcoming. It feels more like staying with a friend than staying in a museum. Our king suite had plenty of room. It's a bit of a drive to downtown, but we used uber when we needed to - and you don't pay downtown premium prices. Breakfast was good, and the conversation was better. We'd definitely stay there again.

Worst B & B experience ever

We have been patronizing B & B's for over 25 years and have stayed in various places from Maine to Alaska and everywhere in between. This was our only negative experience - EVER. The home is historic but is still a long way from presentable. The rooms are not air-conditioned and our room was extremely hot and uncomfortable. My husband had to stand on the bed to reach the pull-chain of the ceiling fan in an attempted to cool the room down. The B & B is on a noisy, inner-city busy street and it was difficult to sleep due to the traffic noise. There were no blinds on the windows so we could not block out the light from the street. The bathroom was old and needed upgrading - cracked ceramic tiles on the floor and an ugly, old, discolored bath tub. The diverter on the tub-shower was hard to operate. There was a big dirty smudge on the bedroom wall, and the furniture was old and in need of refinishing. Downstairs was no better. The french doors to a room at the foot of the stairs were left open to reveal a room full of junk. Breakfast was served on a folding table covered by a tablecloth. Breakfast was hot and hearty, but very plain. We will not return.

An unexpected dip into history

My stay at Six Acres was an unexpected pleasure. I was unaware of this B&B’s history as a stop on the Underground Railroad. I had a wonderful conversation with the host after breakfast, and I regret I did not have more time to stay.

We really enjoyed staying at this Bed and Breakfast. There were great historic qualities. It made you feel like you had stepped back in time. Touch ups are needed to the exterior of the houses, but I think it looks great to have been once condemned. We shared a bathroom. The drain on the shower was slow, so maintenence is needed there. The room was nice, clean and quaint. We would stay again if we're in the area.

It’s an older, creakier house which is to be expected with a B&B but it’s absolutely lovely. Ms. Shelly is a genuine sweetheart and the property is in pristine condition. I felt so welcomed immediately. She even seemed sad I couldn’t stay for breakfast. It seems like it’s far out of the way but it’s actually very accessible to downtown and the rest of the city. Loved it.

Lovely historic home north of downtown

A beautiful historic home--it's due for some paint and trim work outdoors but is kept up beautifully indoors. We were very comfortable, and really enjoyed talking with the owner and learning about the history and plans for the place. The rooms are beautifully decorated--my only disappointment was that the faucet in the huge old tub wasn't working so that I couldn't take a bath. (The shower was great, so no worries!) Breakfast was delicious, served promptly at 8:30. We needed to request a rollaway for my son the second night, and the staff were really accommodating. Next time we'll splash out and get one of the larger rooms with a private bath, but we were just fine sharing with the one room down the hall.

I felt like I was at the home of a friend.

I was in town for a funeral and chose 6acres B&B so that my family and I could have a more intimate setting. We spent our evenings together in one of the two parlors. All of the services exceeded my expectations and I will definitely stay there again. Chelli's kitchen is second to none. Christian and Chelli have done a great job in preserving the history of this house which was once a stop along the Underground Railroad.

Disppointing.

Although Shelly was very nice and accommodating, the room was a complete disappointment from the worn out unusable furniture to the wind blown plastic wrapped windows that made for a cold shower in the morning including leaky tub with plaster falling off the bathroom walls. Dead bug in the middle of the dirty rug and dead ant on the towel was a bonus. Breakfast was somewhat redeeming. Would be beautiful with a complete renovation.

Wonderful Place to Stay

Attended a wedding in Cincinnati and wanted to spend the night. Six Acres was very close to the Pine Croft Mansion (where the wedding took place). The magnificent house was warm and inviting and Chelli was there to greet us with a warm welcome and an even warmer smile! Beautifully appointed rooms with complimentary water bottles (nice touch) and large, comfy beds. Very clean and tidy. Breakfast was delicious and Chelli accommodated our vegetarian and vegan diets without missing a beat! I can't recommend this beautiful, historic home enough.

What Kristen and Chelli do at Six Acres is a treat and a delight. An overnight stay in one of the beautifully appointed rooms is relaxing and healing. Breakfast in the morning is delicious. Entertaining and profound stories of the history of the house as a stop on the Underground Railroad add to the value of the breakfast. The hosts are responsive and thoughtful. What a great place!

Amazing stay

My friend and I stayed Monday through Friday in this lovely home. Kris, the owner, was here to welcome me upon my arrival, and give a warm goodbye upon my departure. I couldn't have asked for anything more. The hospitality was unbeatable. I felt like I was staying in a best friend's home. Very comfortable accommodations. Shelly, Kris' sister, was so nice. When Kris wasn't around, Shelly took care of everything. Each morning we had a tasty breakfast and wonderful conversation. The house was quiet, cool in the 90 degree heat, and clean. Don't miss out on this one of a kind experience. You can't go wrong staying here.

Remarkable

Recommendation was made and initially I was skeptical due to the fact I had never experienced the B&B. Oh my goodness it was amazing. Upon initial hellos I knew my stay was going to be wonderful. I had the honor of staying in Grandma Dixon's room. The breakfast meal was delicious but what I enjoyed the most was the conversation and learning about the history of the house and the family ancestry of its owner. I would definitely come back time and time again and recommend to anyone visiting the Cincinnati area to stop by and stay a while. You will enjoy.
