The property is very charming. The room was a bit small but the comfortable bed more than made up for that. There are stairs so if you have trouble like I do it is something to consider. There is adequate parking but using it may be a little tricky Overall it was a very pleasant stay at a good price.

Conveniently located. Clean room. Comfortable bed. Easy check-in even without an attendant available. Breakfast offering was a bit less than what is generally served at a bed and breakfast type inn. Continental help yourself with no warm items (i.e., eggs, breakfast meats, etc.). Would still stay again when in the area.

Beautiful and charming B&B, lots of care in the details like cohesive design of the shared living spaces to feel both curated and cozy at the same time.

I tried to bring my service animal to this location. I was told I had to document my service animal which is clearly an ADA violation. I'd recommend never going to this location as a veteran being treated like complete garbage by this location being told to go through a back door that had no key. Having somebody grab me blow smoking my face. Clearly a horrible customer service environment

The location was perfect, but that was about it. The inn was dated, one of the employees was a smoker who smoked outside, but the smell lingered when he was in the common area, my room was either arctic cold or sub tropics hot and the radiator sounded like it was about to burst so that kept me up all night with clanging and swishing water noises. If you are solely concerned with the location, this is your place, but I wouldn't expect much more or you'll be disappointed.

I lived in Summit for 40 years and only stayed here after moving away. This is a charming converted multi-story home, very old-school in its bones, but updated for wifi, chargers, etc. Nicely appointed, two quiet blocks from downtown Summit. Real staff on site--not a tie-line to some national headquarters. Staff goes home at 6 but is close by and available by phone if needed. Spacious sitting room and breakfast area with nice spread of breakfast fare. Short walk to the train (NJ transit to NYC and elsewhere). Summit has restaurants ranging from a NYC quality steak house (Roots) to The Summit Diner, a 1920s-era DDD where my children and I spent every Saturday morning eating short-stacks and eggs & corn beef hash. The DeBary is my new go-to place for when I'm visiting. If you really need a gleaming Ritz Carlton, well there's one a couple of miles away (charging $500/night more), but you'll be disappointed.

Call-out to Emily, Innkeeper: Thanks for the friendly, small-town service.

We spent 5 nights at the Inn, and the first 4 were in a sub-par room, which I booked online, evidently a mistake. It was right off the kitchen, dark, with a very uncomfortable, small bed (said “queen” but more like a “double” and horrible pillows - one as flat as a pancake and the other a bolster as hard as a log!) We couldn’t sleep the first 2 nights due to repetitive loud clanging and banging of plumbing in the walls. When we mentioned it, we were given earplugs! So I guess they knew it was an issue. We should have requested a better room. The last night (we added a night) we spent in another room, as ours was already booked. It was upstairs and was lovely and quiet, with a comfy king-sized bed and soft cozy pillows. So much better! The Inn itself, once a beautiful and gracious private home right in-town, is great, with a daily breakfast in the dining room, and friendly, pleasant staff. But beware, don’t stay in Room #4!

Disappointed stay.

The DeBary Inn is beautiful as far as properties go but that's all. The home needs extra TLC and a deep clean. My husband and I stayed in room 4. The room had a musty smell, needs new mattress and deep clean. We had an uncomfortable stay but were only there for 2 nights so tried to make the best of it. The floors creak very loudly, whoever was staying in the room above us we heard every step all night long, felt like the ceiling was going to come down on us. We had a hard time falling asleep because of this and the uncomfortable bed. The Inn had breakfast available for guest but definitely not what an Inn breakfast should have. No home made treats, store bought muffins, cold eggo waffles etc.
The only great thing was the location in Summit, NJ. I would not stay there again.

It's a charming inn. The staff are friendly and accommodating. The wrap around porch is a great place to sit and have your morning coffee. The free (cold) breakfast was delicious. My room, #2, was somewhat of a downer. The full sized bed was just OK and a few times I thought it was going to collapse. The TV was maybe 40\", which is small but it had lots of cable channels. No Netflix, YouTube, etc. More pluses than minuses. Oh I noticed an EV charger in the parking area. The Inn deserves a lot of credit for installing an EV charger. I debated staying at the Short Hills Hilton. I am glad that I chose the DeBarry.

Lovely stay with a sense of nostalgia.

I love the look and the feel of early American on the East Coast. For the one night in Summit, New Jersey, I stayed at this old colonial house that was built in the late 1800’s. The house was simply but thoughtfully furnished, and the wraparound porch was especially charming. The nostalgic decorations and all the traces of the past were particularly appealing to me.😍

Great place to stay. We chose to get out of NYC and were glad we stayed at the Inn. Very comfortable, cozy and safe experience. The only deduction of a star was the smell of marijuana that was coming from the hallways from someone apparently choosing to be rude and smoke in their room, all rooms were to be non-smoking. I don’t suppose you can fault the Innkeeper for that but it was a downside. Still would come and stay again.

The property while beautiful is in need of some TLC. Room 9 is located on the 2nd floor and there is no lift, so be prepared to carry your luggage up the stairs. The bed itself is small and tired. The sheets and pillow cases were dirty so I had to call to have them changed. The bedding is ill-fitting, and the valance was either the wrong size or the elastic was broken. The bath drain was full of old hair ( yuk) and the spout was held on with caulking rather than being repaired. Additionally the water was warm only, dont expect a hot shower. Breakfast was very basic. Staff were pleasant and helpful.
