2 star hotel. Front desk wasn't helpful. Asked where to get clam chowder and the front desk said, " I don't know what that is..." The area is KNOWN for clam chowder. Room was super basic. I asked for a quiet room, and they put me on the corner next to the street. Only 2 other cars in the parking lot.

We were pleasantly surprised with the cleanliness of this Inn. The beds were comfortable, and the shower had nice hot water. Everyone we spoke with was very friendly and all requests for items were brought to the room quickly. We would stay here again.
