Loved it!

We loved our stay at Centerboard! The space was amazing. It was very comfortable and well appointed. We loved coming back to our home away from home after a day exploring Nantucket. (I tried to sneak the bathtub home in my suitcase but couldn’t get it to fit).

The best part of the room was the shower! It had fabulous water pressure, and I love the product supplied. The bed was very comfortable, but a bit of a tight fit getting out of the king bed on one side. The inn keeper was quick to reply to requests, and very accommodating.

The woman on the property was very helpful. The only thing I would say is that our king bed was too close to the wall, ac unit and pitched roof. Everything else was nice.

Very nice hotel. Would stay again. The bed (King) was too wide for the area it was in, requiring careful maneuvering to get in or out.
