Great location in Hyannis. Room had lovely view and deck though we weren’t able to use because of nor’easter. Small dining area had a nice selection of snacks and a small breakfast. I would stay again when visiting. Our only knock was the mattress on the bed was very soft and could be changed out.

Comfortable, convenient motel in Hyannis

We really enjoyed our stay at Anchor In. The staff at the Reception Desk was super friendly and helpful. The room was comfortable and well-equipped. The bed was very comfortable. The hotel is also in a great location - walking distance to the harbor, good restaurant and museums. The free parking is also a plus. The one improvement I could suggest, would be to add a few more healthy options for the free continental breakfast that’s provided. For example / there’s already a toaster, so why not provide bread for toast (in addition to the bagels and sugary pastries provide).
