The room was clean, comfortable., very roomy and had a fantastic view of the Great Salt Pond and all the boats anchored there. On rainy days there were plenty of games available for us. The location was convenient to be ble to walk to most restaurants and shops. The breakfast was prefect to start the day . Would definitely recommend staying here.

This is a charming Inn near New Harbor. There is a basic breakfast and the rooms are not too small. I would give them 5 stars if the beds were upgraded -- my mattress was very soft and needed a refresh. But if you don't have a bad back and can get the numeric room key access to work (i had to get a card from them to get in my room) you can't beat the location or the people.

At $600 a night can't you buy new pillows- absolutely flat- very old- all of them. I was in room 8, they a floor standing Airconditoner with a hose fitted to the window. Two choices on or off/ on it's too loud to sleep- off it's too hot to sleep. Great location, well maintained, Staff was very nice, enjoyed breakfast and the view.
