I had an overall good experience at the wayside Inn. I just felt like it was dated and sort of disjointed. For example, a massage chair In the living room seemed very out of place. There was also some Christmas decorations still up That just seem to be forgotten and it is September. However, it was the most comfortable bed. I have slept iin a very long time! Joe was very nice and the end was special. I just think it would take not a lot of effort to make it seem more charming. I would still say again!

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.

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!

The Way Side Inn is a fantastic place to stay. Joe is such an engaged innkeeper. He was attentive and spent time chatting during our delicious breakfast. The bed was so comfy. The shower was very nice. We loved seeing the huge oak tree. Joe was happy to fill us in on the history of the inn. We felt safe and like we had stepped back in time to a slower time.

Nice change from staying in a hotel. Host was very friendly and historically informative. Breakfast offerings were very satisfying. Bed & room were very comfortable. If using stairs is of a concern, there is no elevator option.

Got in very late (1am) and Joe was super accommodating! We slept well in the comfortable bed on the 3rd Fl (Betty’s room). This B&B is so charming, I think it’s from 1790! The next day we explored Old Elicott Coty and went to a show at Post Merriweather Pavillion. The breakfast the next day was delicious and huge! Joe gave us some history and it was fun hearing his story! Would def stay again! No elevators for those who can’t do stairs just an FYI.

The Inn is clean and comfortable. Breakfast and coffee was very good. The location is perfect for visiting Old Ellicott City and Meriwether Post events. Definitely a bargain and so much nicer than the namebrand hotels! Highly recommend!

We came her for our anniversary. The breakfast every morning by the owner, Joe, was our favorite. The room was great too. We enjoyed the jacuzzi tub. We would go back :)
4.0 / 10.0
Joe seemed very demanding and lacked hospitality. His family paraded around in pajamas. He claimed to give me an upgrade but the room I did stay in had no amenities listed on Expedia. The shower wouldn't drain. Sadly, I was there for my Father's funeral but he was more worried about breakfast than he was empathetic about why we were there in the first place. Not to mention, he never accomodated our vegetarian diet needs instead he served grilled cheese and eggs for two days. Then, told me he had too much to do to get to the store to buy veggies. To top it all off he charged me for God knows what now I'm in the middle of a dispute. Stay anywhere else...this place is not worth the trouble.

We absolutely loved our stay. Owners were friendly, room was comfy and large with an extra sitting room. Loved the colonial feel and charm, down to the creaky floors and claw foot tub. And the breakfast- so good. Delicious French toast, an egg, bacon and sausage, served with a friendly smile. Highly recommend.

This was our first time at a bed and breakfast. We've lived in an older home a few years ago and this definitely brought back the memories! We loved the quietness, the amenities, the comfortable bed and bedding! We even we're able to get chocolate covered strawberries to celebrate our anniversary!
The robes were luxurious and the jetted tub did not disappoint!
Breakfast the next morning was perfect and delicious!
We enjoyed our stay so much!

The property was lovely with clean, well appointed rooms in a very special early American property. Joe, the proprietor, is an excellent cook! The breakfast was wonderful and the Inn is close to everything in Ellicott City area as well as Baltimore. Also, had time to play some golf while there. Several great courses nearby! Would definitely stay there again!
