Emma's Bed and Breakfast

Great location close to I70 yet the room was quiet and very comfortable. Nice spacious bathroom. Nice décor of the period of the home. The atmosphere is very relaxing home. Good conversations with host as he fixed our delicious breakfast. Highly recommend.

We had a wonderful time in this historic home. Breakfast was always good and great conversations. Rooms were clean, peaceful & comfortable. Ron was very pleasant and truly cared. My husband got to play fetch with Zeke the Labradoodle. Would recommend 10 out of 10. Only a mile from Heart of Ohio antiques.

This is our 4th stay at Emma's Bed and Breakfast. We have always enjoyed it, but most importantly, being hosted by Ron has always been the most special part. He has always been a great conversationalist, a caring host and always goes above and beyond to make your stay great. I think someone who engages with guests on level Ron does, should always get a good review, and recommended. Blessings to the Emma's Bed and Breakfast.

Enroute from Chicago to West Virginia, we wanted to stop and see a niece who lives in the area and we were delighted to find this B&B in which to stay. The B&B is located just a short distance from I-70 but you are out in the country. The Inn is in a historic home built in the 1830s and is filled with lovely antigues as the prior owner was an anitigue dealer who included all the antigue furnishings with the sale of the house. We stayed in the Sydney Suite on the main floor, but since we were there mid-week we had the entire house to ourselves. Ron is a most gracious host and it was lovely to see him each morning ready to make our delicious breakfasts and engage in interesting conversation. As other reviewers have noted, the grounds are lovely and while the B&B is filled with antigues it is lovely to have a mini-fridge in your room. We were there two nights and went into Springfield both nights for dinner. We ate at the Hickory Inn and Cecil and Life Cafe and highly recommend both. The day we left, we stopped just down the road at the Heart of Ohio Antigue Center, which is huge. In the two hours we were there, we only saw about half, so guess we'll just have to come back and stay at Emma's again. Thanks Ron for a wonderful time and your gracious hospitality.

Recently stayed at Emma's Bed and Breakfast. I struggled with writing this review as I have such mixed feelings about my stay. I will try to be as fair, frank, and detailed as possible with this extensive review. The owner / operator of this B&B is a most amazing man. He is warm and welcoming, and you feel like family the moment you step in the door. The home is overall amazing and beautiful. The grounds are immaculate, and you can tell the amount of restoration that has gone in the to the building is quite an accomplishment. Our stay was in the two room Sydney Suite. The suite itself was huge. Two large rooms (each with a large fireplace), as well as a private bathroom and private side porch with swing (which was amazing in the morning with a cup of coffee). One room was the main bedroom with a King size bed, the other was a living room area with another bed tucked into one corner. A small fridge and microwave were there as well which was a nice touch and provided us with storage to keep our beverages cold. The space was amazing, and the overall cleanliness of the room was very well kept with a few exceptions. The curtains could have used an updating (or good cleaning), as well as blinds, etc. There were two entrances to the room one right off the kitchen and then another at the other end of the rooms by the front door/foot of the stairs leading up to the other rooms. Voices were easy to hear from both doors in these busy areas, but the other guests we stayed with did try to be very courteous and for us there were no real issues with this. The bathroom could use an updating (wallpaper starting to peel, large stained/damaged area on the ceiling, and the shower had seen better days). The shower door had been removed and a shower curtain was jury rigged to fit the opening. The shower was tight and reminded me of showering in our RV. The space in the bathroom itself would have accommodated a larger shower/bathtub installation (if an unneeded cupboard was removed) and hopefully, the renovation of this bathroom is on the "to do" list, it would certainly enhance the room greatly. The bed was mostly comfortable, and we slept OK. I did note that the bedding throughout the room was well used and perhaps this could be updated as well. There were quilts on the one extra bed (again keeping with the overall look of the place) and a comforter set on the main king bed. All were in good repair, just very dated and well used including showing a few stains. One critical note though, the wooden slat blinds on the windows did present an issue. There is some kind of very bright (like streetlight bright) light outside the king bedroom window on the left side of the bed (if standing at the foot of the bed looking at the headboard). No matter what we did to try to mitigate the light coming in the window it still shown in through the slats and side of the blinds right onto the one side of the head of the bed (and thus right into my husband's f
