Cozy landing spot for Short North adventures.

Great location on a quiet side street, steps from bustling High Street. Unique, comfortable, spacious rooms and a delightful breakfast in the dining room with fellow guests. On-site parking was a nice bonus, as we wanted to park our car and walk/bike/bus while in town.

This was my second visit to Lincoln Short North B&B and it won’t be my last. The property is homey, quaint, comfortable, safe, clean, and has probably the most comfortable sheets i have ever slept on. Tracy the manager was gracious, personable, and accommodating. We got a slow start to our day but she was kind enough to whip us up a delicious, melt in your mouth french toast and bacon breakfast. She is more like a favorite aunt than the manager of the property.

Will stay again!

We needed a nice, clean, well located place to stay for a one night stay for a concert, bonus if it served breakfast. This placed met and exceeded our expectations. We parked and walked everywhere, the place was clean, well kept, plenty of amenities. The breakfast in the morning was wonderful and they were so kind and gracious. We’ll definitely be back.

This B&B was beautifully furnished. The Short North part of Columbus is the arts and entertainment district. It was very lively, even on a weeknight, with a number of restaurant options. Despite the crowds the property was very quiet. I only spent one night there and had to leave before breakfast was served, so I had to skip the question about the staff and the service, but from the way the property was decorated and maintained I'm sure they do a great job. I'd highly recommend this place.
