Beutiful OLD house! I stayed in the Allegheny Room and enjoyed the private entrance and en suite bathroom. The hosts were welcoming and accommodating.

Overnight Visit

Shane was a gracious host and shared a bit of the history of the house. It's a good restoration, retaining the mid-Victorian charm. Bed was firm and comfy. Variety of options for breakfast. Google Maps got me here without any trouble. I was just in town overnight for work, and found this place to be an excellent deal. I'd return for a weekend with the family.

STUNNING!

This B&B was gorgeous!! I had never stayed in one before so it was a new experience for me, but it was a great one. Shawn was wonderfully accommodating. The rooms were spacious. The setting is stunning and quiet; it feels like you're miles away from the chaos, yet close to everything you could want. I highly recommend.

Shane is a very good host and made me feel welcome. This is an historic B&B with a thoughtful set and comfortable accommodations. It’s nice to be able to have access to the beautiful outdoor areas.

We enjoyed the rustic character of the old structure at Highland. The host was very helpful and the room was private and very clean. Some of the floors were slightly cold due to the January weather but otherwise everything was great!

Beautiful restored old home. Very comfortable and clean. Right next to Allegheny college so perfect for visiting family and alumni. Great breakfast offerings. Loved my welcome gift! Shane ( host) was very friendly and helpful. Will plan to stay again when visiting the college.

Such a beautiful historical home from 1855. So much Charm was maintained even with great updates. Shane was so nice, easy to communicate with. Would be great for family events with the option to rent the whole house.
Nicole, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great experience. i had never stayed in a b&b prior, so it was unusual (for me) that there isn't a 'front desk'. However, it was great! i had access to the kitchen and other rooms of the house. only 1 other guest while i was there and we were on opposite ends of the house. Only kind of negative was that my room was accessed from the porch...great for privacy, but it meant if i needed anything i had to go outside and enter through the main entry door to the house. no big deal, but the storm door and the main door have no 'clutch' to stop them from fying open and hitting the radiator...

Charming Victorian B & B

This beautiful, immaculate, charming Victorian bed and breakfast was absolutely delightful to stay in. Shane met me at the door and was attentive to any needs I had. The room was comfortable and cool despite the heat. I would definitely love to visit again.
Jennifer, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The property owner contacted me a day ahead of time. That was great to clear up any last minute questions. He was very thorough to make sure he answered any additional questions. The lodging was a180 year old home which was beautiful and clean. But that's not to say it was perfect. It still showed it's age. For instance, the light switch for the bathroom was not in the bathroom but in the bedroom. If you needed to use the bathroom in the middle of the night, anyone else trying to sleep got a good dose of "lightning" . The switch is on the hinge side of the bathroom door out in the bedroom. So it was bothersome in that setting. The remodeling should have included moving the switch into the bathroom. Also, the bathroom door was out of alignment with the door frame requiring a thud to getting it closed. Adding "thunder" to the "lightning. Again because of the age of the house, there were only three electrical outlets in the room and were required for room lamps, etc. No convenient location for phones to be charged. Other than those issues, everything else was very nice and clean. Other than the lack of a light switch "in the bathroom" the shower stall, toilet, and sink were very nice, though a little "tight". And we are not big people...

Highland B&B was perfect overnight stop for my business in town. The property is beautifully restored and owner is very helpful. Great alternative to big box hotels for a memorable stay and great value. Highly recommend.
Joshua, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We'd usually stayed a local motels just for the convenience, but those were unexpectedly out of our price range this time, so we were delighted to find this B&B in a historic home, in the neighborhood where one of us had grown up. Being in town made it more convenient than the motels which are near the interstate west of town. We worried about a shared rather than a private bath, but there was no problem as there was only one other bedroom occupied and our schedules did not "collide."
William, 1-night trip

Wonderful gem

Highland B&B was beyond my highest expectations. Shane is not only a gracious host but an historian knowing all about the building and the area. Tons of different breakfast options and the rooms are all so different and full of character. The porch is wonderful in nice weather for morning coffee (also provided). Highly recommended and I can’t wait to come back!

The house was very nice and clean and safe for me and my daughter during our stay. It was stocked with everything we needed for our stay. Would definitely recommend to anyone going to the area and pricing is very competitive with hotels in the area.
