Great view well kept property. Nice place to sit outside have a cocktail and look out over the water. Boasts a high quality restaurant yet did not put out coffee in the morning or have in room coffee service despite the nearest location was fifteen minutes away For avg price of 400 plus per night cannot even put out coffee and a continental breakfast for guests. Please cheap.

Disliked: Amenities
Very little aid to a first time visitor to block island. No mention of beach towels; had to ask specifically for key and room number when it wasn't offered after we checked in. Music in bar started at 5am on a Tuesday morning and no one was around to turn it off. Could be heard for hours in our room with no one around to open up the bar and turn it off. No accommodation or apology given. No food or coffee around. Better to stay across the street at Spring House Hotel where you could find a breakfast sandwich and coffee. Beautiful space for drinks on the lawn but that doesn't make up for the very, very laid back nature of everyone who works here.

We found the Inn to be clean, comfortable and quiet. The staff was accommodating; however, we were not made aware of a private event prohibiting us from the bar area and outside common area one evening. It would have been nice if this was communicated to us at check in. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and would return to the Inn. We would suggest that if a private event is booked, it doesn’t impact guests who are staying there. Perhaps set up a tent where it’s away from the common area.
