Large room was very nice and clean. Bed was comfy. Walking distance to State St and Sterns Wharf. Parking was available. No coffee or breakfast offered in the morning. No cocktail hour. I would happily stay here again.

6/10 Good

Clean facilities but you don’t receive much for $400 a night. There’s no coffee in the morning nor breakfast. It’s a clean room, and safe location. The carpet needs to be pulled.. it’s a bit grimy and definitely stained. Plugs for charging are overused and don’t hold a charge.

This place was so cute! Loved the patio option and how close we were to everything. The Funk Zone is a quick Uber ride from the Inn and the beach & pier are just a little walk away.
