I booked pine inn because the neighborhood is wonderful, though the pine inn itself needs some updating. The property seems in poor condition. Room feels dirty very dated & worn furniture as well as brown dirty carpets and worn bedding. I paid for a ocean view which was blocked by scaffolding. Unfortunately it left me feeling taken advantage of being that I paid extra for the view. The staff seem tolerant but complacent. Parking is limited and you may have to find street parking as there is not much "free" hotel parking.

Characterful hotel in fabulous location. Convenient for shops a beach. Good restaurant. Sea view from third floor. No lift so big effort required to get cases up stairs. Adjoining rooms had paper thin walls and lacked some privacy.

Loved our time at this charming inn! The location is wonderful and the service was also great. The only negatives we had was not having an AC and coffee maker. Other than that, a great property to stay at.

We booked an ocean-view room, parking included, for one night. They forgot to mention the scaffolding covering the view side of the building. Parking is available only for the first 20 of 49 rooms, so you have to drive around to find a spot and then move every two hours. The lounge looks lovely, but you cannot relax with a drink there, no food/drinks allowed, which is NOT shown on their website photos. It's an historic building, badly restored. Please see photos... The bathroom and closet are 2-star hotel level. It was disappointing and did not reflect the rating listed. We deeply regret following your advice.

No food/drink not listed in website photos.

Property in need of major updates and maintenance. We had to hear constant maintenance sounds of hammering, trucks etc with no transparency that it would be taking place during our stay or concessions to acknowledge how much it detracted from our experience. Front desk staff appeared miserable and exhausted.

Lovely Hotel

Love the hotel. Didn't like the room. It was at the end of a hallway so thought it would be quiet. Unfortunately the maid's closet was also there so when we came back to rest in the late afternoon there was a lot of activity out there, including the use of walkie talkies which was annoying. We would definitely stay here again, but in a different room. It is noisy outside in the early morning as garbage is collected daily in the area due to the number of restaurants. This historical hotel is beautiful inside. No elevator so if you are on the third floor, it's a bit of a hike.

The Pine Inn has a great location and historic charm, but unfortunately, our check-in experience was disappointing. The front desk staff was cold and dismissive, which left a poor first impression. While the issue was later addressed and we appreciated the follow-up, that initial interaction impacted our overall stay. A warmer, more welcoming approach would have made a big difference.

Overall very outdated building with outdated room interior, dead bug on the carpet floor, strange smell although not too strong, and the floor of my room is connected to the stairs, so whenever people walks up the stairs there was a very loud noise in the room.
