A step back in time

Loved staying at The Inn on Ferry Street. The houses were beautiful and comfortable. The service was friendly. There were excellent restaurants and shops nearby as well as a QLine stop. Would definitely stay here again!

Close to DIA and easy access to lots of local spots it is well situated off of a quiet street. My third floor room was spacious for my brief stay and the staff were very helpful, it was a step back in decoration and the common rooms and porches add to the effect.

Very Quaint & Comfy

The Inn on Ferry was super-convenient to the Reuther Archives, and it seems like a lovely safe neighborhood. The hotel itself is charming--four old buildings repurposed as a hotel. The central building, 84 East Ferry, offers a healthy breakfast every morning. The internet worked well. The room itself was large and very comfortable. Very quiet. And the staff are splendid and helpful. THREE CHEERS for the Inn on ferry.

This was such a fun stay! The inn was so charming and unique from staying at a "regular" hotel. The area is pretty and the buildings/rooms were even cuter in person. We were at the very top and it was very quiet. The bed was comfortable. We were amazed by the breakfast spread. Everything was fresh and delicious. Joann was so sweet and did a great job. I would definitely stay again!

Beautiful place but don’t be fooled!! Want toilet paper? Tough. Want hand soap? Tough. Want hot water? Maybe. Want a tub that drains the dirty water? Tough. Want a cool room in the heat of summer? Tough. What a disaster of a stay!!! R U N.

It was a quiet are which was nice but our room had no air conditioning. We ask for a fan and the first one that was brought, someone took from outside our room. The next one left a a huge water spot on the carpet. We finally found a fan in the closet. The shower curtain had mold on it and there was no soap to wash your hands, only body wash. There’s no ice and no ramp or elevator to get into the building. It’s cute but doe not have any modern amenities. Would not stay again or recommend.
