Would stay again.

A lovely gem walkable to town in one direction and other hotels (especially Spring House where you can cocktail on the lawn) in the other direction. Having a room with a balcony was a plus for gorgeous breezes. But we forewarned, bathrooms are tiny.

Great location, easy walk from ferry in Old Harbor with great dining options within East walking distance. Visiting midweek in early September ( PERFECT weather, less crowds ) made for an ideal 3 day getaway. Like having coffee available in lobby (2 flights down) but a walk to store for breakfast items needed ( hint there's a refrigerator in room so we knew to stick up for second morning) to be lazy!

Receptionist had zero personality. Almost like she was doing us a favor by checking us in. This is an aged hotel that has been updated. It was comfortable, clean and convenient. If you are looking for a place to lay your head, it would be fine. If you are looking for any hotel amenities, this is probably not your place.
