If you stay here, you are literally at the center of downtown. Clean rooms, friendly staff. You need to check in at 1661 down the road and they will store your bags on arrival/departure day. This is my second time staying here and I would again in the opportunity presented itself. You can’t go wrong at Hendrickson house!

Location is right in the center of town, so you if you desire to be in the middle of the hustle and bustle, then this place is perfect for you! In town, walkable to many beaches, shopping, dining, etc. Room was very comfortable, spacious, and clean. It can easily accommodate 3 guests. Cons: walls are thin, so you can hear chattering of guests in rooms next to you, so being respectful of the noise level is voiced by the 1661 Inn, and appreciated. Wouldn't recommend for a Family with little kids, as you do need to walk up quite a few levels of stairs, and the stairway is narrow. I believe it would prove to be difficult for a small family with little ones. However, the property was really nice and comfortable, and you can't beat the staff at the 1661 Inn! Very accommodating. We would recommend staying here and would stay again!

The room is very comfortable for a family with young kids. The hotel room rate and meal price are typical of block island.

The main hotel is lovely but Hendrickson House is off site. No wifi, extremely thin walls (got woken up every morning at 6.30 by next door guests), turnover service never came and by the time we called they were gone for the day. Room isn’t that well stocked. It’s ok but would only stay if I can’t find another place.

We thought the room was very cute and conveniently located. If we were people who like to sleep in late then the mopeds outside the room in the morning would have been a problem but we had no issue with them. Overall really enjoyed our stay!

I stayed at both the Hendrickson House and at the 1661 Inn. The Hendrickson is much more convenient to downtown bars and restaurants but the 1661 is more renovated and upscale.
