The Sweet Spot

What a sweet little spot just a couple blocks from the beach! Pros: Cute, modern, comfortable rooms. Pool and hot tub (more private than the hotel pools on the main beach boulevard). Walking/biking distance to harbor/wharf/beach and shops/bars/restaurants. Fresh baked cookies! Bike rentals. Friendly service. Reasonable price for the location. Cons: No streaming services. No pool bar. No water refill station. Dated hallway.

The rooms were very nicely appointed and clean, with lots of area for storage. We could easily walk to local spots like Stearns Wharf, State Street, and the beach. Staff was very friendly, and it was a bonus to have coffee and a light breakfast available in the morning. Would definitely stay here again.

Mason Beach in was super close to State Street, but far enough away where it was quiet. The hot tub was lovely and the pool was heated even in winter! The staff were super friendly and helpful. The rooms were comfortable and nice. The beds were great. I will definitely return.
