Our stay at the Sally Webster was great! Our room was clean, spacious, and welcoming! The staff of the inn were also 10/10. A storm blew through during our stay which made the power go out for a short period of time. While it normally wouldn’t have been any problem my husband and I had a wedding to attend and were in need of electricity to get ready. After we informed Marshall he quickly sent us to their sister location (2 minutes away that did not have a power issue) to use one of their rooms to get ready as we needed for the day. We appreciate how prompt they were with everything and with accommodating us so quickly! The owners go above and beyond and make sure the stay is top notch! We would definitely stay here again when visiting Rockport! The location was also perfect. A short 5 minute walk into the town where all the restaurants and shops are! Thanks for the great stay! We fell in love with the town!

We had a wonderful stay. The self-check-in process was simple and convenient. Our room (Mary Reid) was spotless, with the bed neatly made and fresh towels provided daily. While the bathroom was on the smaller side, that's expected in a historic home. The location was perfect - just a short walk to downtown. Our only disappointment was that breakfast is no longer offered, as it would have made the stay even better. This is a lovely historic Inn that is very well kept.

Comfortable and close to town

Beach hopping with my wife. Lovely place to stay and as always, remember that when you stay at a historical inn, don’t expect too many modern updates. That said, the upright shower is rather tight but does the job well. The only other thing is that I would have liked a more secure door to the room, maybe an extra latch. The room was cozy and clean. The bed was comfortable. We would definitely stay again!

Quaint lovely house.

Wish they had a breakfast. Bed was super comfortable. Would have loved to meet the owners or someone that worked there. We checked in alone, never saw a soul and left without seeing anyone either. Owner was quick to answer any concerns via text so that was good. I loved it. I’d go back.

great location, clean, quaint, but tiny bathroom

Stayed for 2 nights to explore Rockport, Gloucester, and Castle Hill. Great location a few blocks from downtown. Walked to the beach. Disappointed in the size of the bathroom, but very clean and it is an old home. Also disappointed the included breakfast was discontinued and we received coupons for local restaurants. How difficult is it to provide a few baked goods and a coffee tea station in the living room area?

No person on site but it was needed. Was a short walk to shopping and the wharf. Quintessential New England Seaport. Food options in Rockport weren't great but many within a short drive. Room was good and we enjoyed our time there. Would stay again.

This inn is clean and in a good location but our experience was completely tainted by the fact that they were totally dishonest about the breakfast. They stopped serving breakfast a long time ago but "conveniently" forgot to update sites like Expedia where people actually do their booking. There was a note in the room saying it was discontinued but after doing some digging in reviews, we found it was discontinued LONG before we booked in May 2025. We chose this place over another very charming inn simply because of the breakfast option. Also, they have loud window air conditioners and if you want to turn it off and open the windows, our room faced a very noisy street. They also cleaned our bathroom and used so much bleach that the room stank for a whole day. That said, the place is clean and the bed pretty comfortable. It's also in a good location to the center of Rockville.

The inn was wonderful, very clean, and comfortable. The contactless check was my 1st experience doing so, but the directions were easy to follow. Bummer they don't offer breakfast any more, but I understand with the prices of everything going up it's hard for a smaller place to do so.

My wife and I enjoyed our stay at Sally Webster. Easy parking and close to central district of Rockport. Well kept property. Our room included a small walk-in shower and small sink, soft but comfortable bed, nice linens, well functioning air conditioning, refrigerator with freezer section, and Kerig unit. You never meet the inn keepers but easily accessible by texting. No longer offer breakfast which was a surprise to us. Very good housekeeping. Only real negative was lack of hot water for showers.

I found our e-mail communications with Matthew to be excellent. He replied to our questions promptly. I would give a 10 (being the highest rating on a scale of 1-10). Everything else was mediocre. We never saw a staff person. On numerous occasions we have used facilities such as this inn and have always been greeted by a staff person, provided we arrived before 5:00 or 6:00 in the evening. The human interaction is one of the many charms when one chooses to stay at an inn. The contactless approach resembles an Airbnb minus the amenities the latter has to offer. In our room the door to enter was not functioning properly unless one pushed it hard to open. The door to the bathroom did not close. The wash basin was tiny. The light to the shower would turn off within five minutes of being turned on. The two arm chairs were past their prime and one of them was blocking the closet. Another issue which maybe of lesser importance to other reviewers was the fact all the flowers indoors and many in the outdoors were fake. The common area lacked charm. It is unfortunate that this place could have been a gem considering its proximity to the harbor, galleries and restaurants but instead turned out not to be so.

The property had a lot of character and was very clean and tidy except for a proper lock on the bathroom. You also needed a degree to get the coffee machine to work which unfortunately we didn't. Also a bit of a shame that there is not the personal presence on arrival. Finally our booking in May confirmed a breakfast but a note was left to say that due to rising costs they decided at the end of 2024 to stop that and although not a problem, it should be removed from the agreement.
