Essex Street Inn is a wonderful place. It is conveniently located in the heart of Newburyport, close to many wonderful restaurants and shops. I liked that the Inn is an historic home refitted into an inn. The bed was comfortable and the room was plenty big enough for our needs (we stayed for one night in order to visit the Parker River NWR on Plum Island). The breakfast in the morning was perfect as they had plenty of stuff for a quick grab and go. The staff was very helpful and the room and facilities were very clean and well maintained.

We loved this place. Stayed in the King suite which had a fireplace, kitchen, balcony and jacuzzi. It was beautifully appointed, comfortable and a great value. The staff was lovely and friendly, and we loved the little touches like having soup and cookies out in the afternoon as well as free breakfast and coffee in the morning. They also have free parking and are right downtown so easy walking around.

Very comfortable room with a great bed. Clean as a whistle. Good quality toiletries provided. Hot water took a bit to "come up" for a shower. I was in a room right by the check in desk and could hear some of the interactions taking place so just turned the TV up a bit. All in all, very good and I would stay again.

The room was fine but we didn’t realize that we were not staying at the main inn. We were next door and had to brave the cold to get to the main inn for breakfast. There was also a resonating electrical? hum that cyclically came and disappeared every 5 minutes. It was hard to get to sleep. It came from the jacuzzi tub that was right next to the bed.
