We stayed there for a wedding during Valentine's day weekend and loved it! The breakfast was excellent, the staff was super friendly, and the amenities and location were great! It was only a few minutes walk to downtown Summit, and it's also really close to the NJT Summit train stop (though we did not use the train this trip. I would definitely stay here again!

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!
