This is a 3 diamond AAA property. Breakfast, happy hour, and champagne in the room are nice. Breakfast was abundant and happy hour included hors d’ouvres. Some people may only need one meal a day. This property welcomes monthly renters. We met some from Canada. It felt like being among acquaintances.

The continental breakfast had more items than just pastries and the afternoon Happly Hour with cheeses and crackers delightful. As guests, we found it more personsonable than the big chain hotels.

Starting with the positive: The hotel is clean and in great proximity to State St. The staff were very friendly. However, I wouldn't quite rate this a 3.5 star hotel. Based on the photos, reviews and initial exterior photos - I was expecting more of a higher end experience. It is more like a well taken care of motel. The internet was not functional, no smart TVs (though they do have a very large selection of DVDs which was nice). They did have a nice bottle of sparking wine or cider awaiting you, free bike rentals. The rate likely reflects the proximity to State St. rather than the star level of hotel (I did have other hotel options that were seemingly on par for this level of hotel, for half the price.). Nothing "bad" about the hotel, just not quite what I was expecting for how much I paid.

Great stay ! Easy check in, personable staff. Esteban and Justin were great, very helpful on our arrival. Upgraded our room to a suite and gave us champagne upon arrival. Coffee & tea in lobby. Happy hour and tasty breakfast. Property is very clean and maintained. It’s an older inn, but well cared for. We were able to walk to harbour and downtown. Free use of bikes and dvd’s available.
