Don't be mistaken by first impressions as you drive up to this property. I'd like to call it a diamond in the rough. The host/owner, Bob will admit the property needs substantial renovations to the exterior but don't be misled. The property has it's charm and the location cannot be beat for the price. Park your car and forget it. Everything is within easy walking distance. This is our second time for this property and will definitely try to stay again next year.

Pros: Property was in town and easy to get to everything. We had an A/C unit in our room. Easy checking in and out. The host was available through a text if you needed anything. Cons: We were very disappointed in our room. I’m 71 and my husband is 69 just for perspective. Our room was up two flights of steep stairs in “The Loft” felt like an attic. The bathroom was across the hall not in our room where there was no A/C. It was probably close to 100 deg upstairs. I did not feel safe up there in case of a fire, no avenue of escape except the stairs, no windows were accessible, there was a fire extinguisher. There was no staff to greet you. That personal touch was missing and needed. No breakfast or Continental breakfast which is what we had hoped would be provided. After a long day we were dreading going back to the Loft because it was so hot. Although the A/C made our sleeping much better. But the bathroom was extremely hot and miserable. I’m sure the other rooms were nice. So this is just a review of our room from our perspective. Kennebunkport is a great little town and we really enjoying visiting it.

Overall condition of Inn was not good. Floors very uneven, one bed not adjusted to sloping floor and had to sleep on a slant. Sorely needs updating. The location is excellent and innkeeper did keep the property clean.

This B&B needs significant updating to make it a worthwhile stay. We appreciate that this is an older house but everything is old and needs attention. We especially did not like the TV set up whereby only streaming services were available. We do not use those at home and were unable to get the programs we wanted. The lack of any kind of breakfast kind of ruins the Bed and Breakfast aspect. We completely understand the issues surrounding Covid 19 but other properties had significant safeguards and were able to serve breakfast. The whole experience was disappointing.

Great location. Inn is a classic old New England building with steep stairs and creaky floors. Rooms were clean and bed sheets were ultra soft. If you like old Inns you will love this place. However, if you like new and modern you probably will not be happy with this Inn.
