About the host
Hosted by Amy Zeller-Trudell
I enjoy being a host because I genuinely love people and I love this area. Hosting at The Inn on Holgate Avenue gives me the opportunity to welcome guests into a historic neighborhood that’s close to downtown, local restaurants, and some truly special spots.
I want guests to feel like they belong here—not just like they’re passing through. From the comfort of the home to helpful local recommendations, my goal is to make every stay easy, enjoyable, and memorable.

Why they chose this property
❤️ My Passion for Holgate Avenue
Holgate Avenue isn’t just where The Inn is located — it’s where my life happened.
I grew up on Holgate Avenue at 622 Holgate, living there my entire childhood until I was 19 years old. This street shaped who I am. It’s where I learned the meaning of home, neighborhood, and community.
Later in life, I made my home at 634 Holgate Avenue, where I lived for 22 years and raised my daughter, Kennedy. That house holds countless memories — front-porch moments, everyday routines, celebrations, and the kind of memories you don’t realize are special until years later.
When the opportunity came to restore and open this home, it felt incredibly personal. Bringing life back into a house on the very street that raised me wasn’t just a renovation — it was a way of honoring my past while creating something meaningful for others. Every detail of The Inn on Holgate Avenue was done with care, respect for the history, and a deep love for this neighborhood.
Hosting here means sharing a piece of my story. My hope is that every guest feels the same warmth, comfort, and sense of belonging that Holgate Avenue has always given me.
