This was a great stay. The staff was friendly. The bar down stairs had great food. And the room was nice. I got the bed with a balcony and it had a gorgeous view of onset bay. On a double bonus, despite being an old building it had an elevator, which was a huge relief considering on the 3rd floor.

The area was nice and there were many options within walking distance. Nana's Ice Cream was excellent. Onset Cove is a beautiful area. The music was good in the lounge but very loud even on the third floor. Room was clean and comfortable.

Very clean & well kept for such an old building that swayed in the Northeaster storm. All staff, including restaurant, were pleasant. Bar made restaurant very noisy. (No separation) But inconvenienced by no electrical outlet in bathroom for hair appliances & no mirror in bedroom that had multiple outlets. We could not get TV remotes to cooperate, so watched TV on iPad. Not Oceanfront. Partial Bay view due to tall trees .

Location is nice (across from the bay) and staff were pleasant. However, nails were sticking up on the bathroom floor from poorly done repairs, the room was hot and stuffy with no AC, and I would have liked to know that there is very loud live music on the weekends until 11:00 or 12:00 at night. If you like staying up, the music was good, but if you want to go to bed earlier than that, don't stay here. Also, I was hoping to watch the MLB playoff game but room had a tiny TV with limited cable that didn't get TBS. The continental breakfast is basically bad coffee, cereal, and store bought wrapped goods. Not great overall, especially for the price.

Great historic hotel in a beautiful location. Balcony view of bay from our room was lovely; however, traffic noise from road in front of hotel could be loud and interfere with sleep. All of the staff were pleasant and above and beyond hospitable. It's not a Holiday Inn Express but if you're looking for a lovely, restored small hotel in a beautiful area, that includes a great restaurant and bar, in easy walking distant to small-town shopping and restaurants, and furnished with antiques, this is the place to visit!

Loved it

The view was incredible out of both the windows, the room was clean and cozy, the staff was extremely nice. The basement bar/restaurant was so much fun- the food was amazing and the cover band playing was really really good and everyone there was LOVING it. The beach was literally across the street too.

Delightful experience!

Beautiful old hotel in outstanding condition. Great location by the beach. Superior service, I received a call to tell me the room was ready early and I could have an early check-in. The service was just as wonderful from check-in throughout our stay. The restaurant is excellent and definitely worth a return.

Mature property but overall kept up very well. Big bonus is that it has an elevator. While the room was nice, the bed was horrible. The mattress was old and every spring in it rumbled and squeaked with every move. Both of us had aches and pains the next day. We had dinner at the restaurant and the cocktails and meals were delicious. I had the Salmon bowl which was salmon (cooked perfectly) over rice with avocado, cukes and mango on the side on Thursday night. I feel that I got some kind of food illness from that meal. We drove home on Friday after leaving the Glen Cove and my stomach and gut were at war. I later got sick. I could not hold down food for 3 days, and it is now day 5 and I am still fighting symptoms of a foodborne illness. Many items in that meal can cause illness. While the avacado and mango were not in their skins, if they were not washed properly before handling that can do it. The cuke did have the skin on and it's the same situation. Rice is also a haven for bacteria if it sits in a pan waiting to be used. I only mention this because the kitchen has got to take a look at how food was prepped and cooked on Sept. 11th.

Being right on the beach was spectacular. Could watch the sunset from our balcony. The pool area has a beautiful deck and bar service so it was a place to get out of the wind off wanted. The room had a kitchenette and we would have used it if we’d been there longer. There was a coffee maker, but no coffee provided. That was one downside. Almost every hotel now provides coffee in your room. We paid nearly $10 across the street to get coffee from the cafe. The people were friendly and the location is unbeatable.
