Unable to rate the staff and service as I never interacted with anyone on the property. The stay was great, rooms were wonderful and comfortable, and the property was beautiful.

Rooms are way to small for the price you pay.

The place was very clean and updated, 1/2 mile walk to the main town that was nice, restaurants everywhere, rooms are way too small for the price you pay for a night stay. It’s almost impossible to move around in the room that how small they are. We are not big people,

There are no full time staff onsite. The hotel across the street manages it, so if need something they come across the street. For example, the shampoo and conditioner bottles were missing in the shower, so I contacted them through the One Key app and they quickly responded and came over to put in the missing bottles. Room is rather small with no refrigerator, microwave, or coffee maker, as these are all located in the nice and spacious common room downstairs. OK selection of TV channels, except the NESN channel was listed as “not available” which means I missed a Red Sox game. Fans beware!

Beautiful and would stay again…

Beautifully decorated, coffee, water, ice, cute thermos to use for water, coffee cups to go, neat wall fireplaces..overall great stay. Only areas for improvement were no fridge in the room ( but community one in common area), the walls are thin so you can hear everything above you and next to you ( and I mean everything;)), the room was light at night because the shades weren’t room darkening and had no curtains. The location was great, quick walk to town. Great restaurant across street called the Town. Grocery store quick trip down street and Bad Martha brewery was close by , great beer!! Great weekend!!!
Leigh, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Cozy comfort - maybe a bit noisy inside though

Really cute and quaint little Inn. Super clean and large rooms, too. Walking distance to just about everything. Only downside (and I'm nit-picking here) is that because it is newly renovated, it's a bit noisy inside. Very easy to hear people walking about or chatting - those sounds carry through the walls, floors. But again - that's nit-picking!

8/10 Very good

Just remodeled when we went and nice. We booked a room with a king bed that was a nice size but my parents got the standard room with a queen and it is basically a small bedroom with a bathroom. Nice common area that we played cards in and a small common kitchen with a small fridge, microwave, Keurig (coffee, tea & hot chocolate) table and chairs. Less than a five minute drive to the town center. There is a restaurant right across the street at well.

Boutique hotel

The property is new and beautiful. There isn’t a front desk. It’s very hands off. If you want a fire you supply your own firewood, matches, etc. Be prepared the trash truck came at 6am on a Saturday which was WAY too early on vacation.

Very pleasant stay and a brand new hotel!

Great locations just about 10min from downtown. On bus route which was great! Completely new property and nicely appointed. Nice sitting area in the back. Comfortable bed and nice bathroom albeit small. Cons: Paper thin walls. You can hear literally everything. I recommend staying upstairs rooms 8-16. Downstairs a little too close for comfort. Didn’t mind the keyless entry. Easy to do on your phone. Very pleasant stay overall!
