Outrageously expensive for the condition of the house. The pictures shown must have been taken 30 years ago. Dirty wall to wall carpeting. Dingy room. Impossible to move in the old bathroom, smaller than a closet. The window shade came down. No tv. Sad continental breakfast we did not eat. Depressing in general. Stayed in the room to sleep and left as soon as we got up. Had I not booked through Expedia, I would have asked for my money back and left as soon as I saw the place.

Charming old fashioned ambiance. Lovely furnishings in nice location although a bit noisy with too much traffic during the day. The proprietor was gracious and helpful. No TV in the room or downstairs. A nice claw foot tub but difficult to use for older adults. Clean, nice simple breakfast, good location to see sights around the area.

We went to the Gloucester area for a long weekend and decided to stay at the Old Corner Inn in beautiful Manchester-by-the-Sea. Our room on the third floor was both comfortable and charming. The Inn itself having been built in the mid 1800's, is embellished with vintage decor and lovely service ware. The Inn has beautiful wood floors throughout the first floor. It has an inviting wrap around porch outfitted with comfortable chairs and small table where we relaxed and spent a few minutes chatting with other guests Michael our Inn keeper/host, was delightful. He shared with us the history of the Inn, things to do and see in the area, and otherwise wonderful conversation.

Let's start with Mike!!! He was by far the best host ever! So sweet, informative and generous. The house is kept in pristine condition with beautiful decor and paintings everywhere. The rooms are just as great. Turn down service everyday with fresh towels and water bottles every morning. To say this was the best place I stayed on my 13 day road trip is an understatement!!! I would highly recommend booking here. 20 minute drive to Salem 45 min drive to Boston We will definitely be booking yearly!!

Girls Weekend from Heaven

This place is amazing! My friend and I came up for a girls trip in October 2020 to make up for a cancelled trip earlier this year. The host, Micheal, was so nice and gave us a whole lot of fun things to do! The beds were so comfy and the contiental breakfast was made classy by the actual china that you could serve yourself on. It's perfect for embracing the Victorian feel during the most perfect Girls Weekend!

Good location. Older property but good enough.

The Old Corner Inn was a former Danish Embassy years & years ago. It's about a mile from the beautiful village of Manchester-by-the-Sea with quaint shops and nice restaurants. The inn was comfortable, no frills and not much breakfast to speak of - probably a covid thing - but good enough. Could probably use a bit of work & updating but as it was a girls weekend we weren't there for much longer than to sleep & shower. Be sure to stroll down by the harbor - lovely. It was about 15 minutes from Glouschester & Rockport. Nice.

Charming place to stay!

It's such a sweet little inn! The property manager was very nice and the space was clearly sanitized regularly. Hand sanitizer was available immediately inside the door and masks were required at all times outside of the rooms. I would absolutely stay here again!
