Quaint little B&B. Breakfast was delicious, room was a good size, parking was easy, and host was great. It's an older property and had older (1980's?) soft furniture (couches) which made the whole place smell a bit like my grandmothers house. I was surprised that in early Oct that there wasn't a place to sit. It looked like the outside are was shut down for the season.

Lovely historical home Joe our host is very attentive and clearly cares about his property and guests. We saw deer early in the morning in the peaceful garden. Our room was very spacious with a living area. The home is cozy but could use a deep clean as we noticed a bit of dust on the decorations in our room but overall the property is kept well. Joe made a point to keep guests segregated during breakfasts as it seems people in that area are still keeping the Covid era alive. Disappointing as one reason to stay at a B&B is to meet new friends when traveling. Overall a nice experience.

This was our third stay at the Wayside Inn and we have had a wonderful experience each time. The owner, Joe, pays attention to detail, reviews breakfast menu options for your stay upon arrival, and is available for any questions. We highly recommend Wayside Inn, and look forward to your next visit.

A nice comfy getaway in Ellicott City

Posted 18 Jun 2024 on Hotels
We enjoyed our brief 1-day stay at the Wayside Inn in Ellicott City, MD. Joe the Innkeeper was gracious, welcoming, and attentive and offered insights regarding the history of the B&B and prior owners who essentially established the inn. The features of the inn were consistent with many online reviews. Our room, the Pierpoint deluxe suite, was specious and comfortable. A really nice poster bed and great shower. The views were also nice. Wish it had been winter and we could have used the fireplace. As noted in other reviews, the floors were extremely squeaky, though to be expected from a historic building. Staircase could be a little tricky for older guests, though we were fine. Breakfast was quite tasty and Joe was proud of his culinary skills. It would have been great if more tea choices were available, and other amenities like espresso. Entrance and front and backyards could benefit from maintenance to remove overgrown flora and enhance the beauty of the property. Lastly, wishing that the owner had more branded mugs in stock (like other B&Bs we have stayed at) so that we could have purchased as a keepsake and helped promote his brand… Thanks to Joe for his hospitality!

We stayed one night in the family suite. The home is so charming!! Our bed was incredibly comfortable and I slept like the dead. The breakfast was delicious, as well. Also appreciated the VIP comp of sparkling wine. I’d stay again.
