Nice property in a good location and very helpful staff. WiFi is so slow it’s not worth using it. All rooms across the elevator are noisy. That would be 206,306,406, and 506.

We have stayed here several times and have always had a great experience. Baggage transport and check-in are super easy. Less pricey than other properties, but also less amenities. Continental breakfast (no proteins, eggs, etc). No pool, but a large hot tub - great for a soak after a day of walking and biking. Cookies in the evening. They have a coffee bar with a barrista, but I've never tried it. Internet is decently fast - my business VPN worked as usual. The 2nd floor porch and sitting room make the place. Met lots of people there, card games, reading or people watching.

Lovely hotel, small rooms can't believe

This is a beautiful, old-fashioned hotel, Victorian in style. There's a wrap around porch, a sitting area in the front, and we had our own private little balcony. They sell fudge at the desk, there's an espresso bar in the front, and there are fresh chocolate chip cookies every night. They serve a continental breakfast, which was plenty for us, with oatmeal, yogurt, boiled eggs, bagels, muffins, and cereal, plus assorted juices and coffees. The staff is very friendly and helpful. Our room was beautiful but small, not a lot of room for the luggage. There was a closet, but it was very close to the bed. No refrigerator or microwave like most modern hotels, but we did okay without. The television didn't seem to work very well, not very many channels.The beds were very comfortable and we enjoyed the little balcony, but we did have trouble trying to charge our phones because the outlets wouldn't hold the plugs very well, plus there weren't many outlets at all. The room was very clean and comfortable, and we truly enjoyed our stay.

I would give zero stars if I could. I ordered travel insurance and they will not reimburse. I had a car accident and an MRI the day of check-in and could not get to the island. They refused to assist me as a customer. The staff were extremely rude over the phone And when I continue to explain my situation, they hung up and said, you did not order the hotel through us ordered it through Expedia that’s their problem.

The property is conveniently located near Main Street district, and it is an easy walk from the docks to the Inn. The front porch is an added benefit to sit and enjoy breakfast or just people watch. Good view of the boat slips as well.
