The public facing part of the property is lovely. Our room/stay was fair. I knew it wasn’t going to be large, but I didn’t expect so much wasted space. There was only 1 hook in the entire place (in the bathroom). Where should we hang our bathing suits? Where should we hang our towels? There was one large wall that had plenty of space to put hooks. And the only thing they used that wall for was a non-smart television (which was very disappointing on its own!) and a very tiny piece of art that didn’t go with the decor at all. There was a lovely armoire, but again with wasted space. It needs shelves! There was also a nightstand that could have contained shelves but instead was simply decorative. The air conditioner was extremely loud; I reached down on the floor to get something that fell and found all kinds of disgusting dust bunnies. Two of the days we were there, our room was not serviced at all. Both of those days someone knocked on the door and asked if we wanted service. I said yes, that we were leaving in just a couple of minutes. Apparently leaving in a couple of minutes is code for please don’t come service my room? Also, there was no phone in the room, so in order to get anything you had to go walk to the front desk and ask for it. We were not terribly far away, but we were far enough that it was inconvenient. The staff was nice, but they need to learn to say hello even if they’re in the middle of something! Overall I’ve paid less and gotten more, even on Nantucket.

Somewhat outdated and expensive hotel in comparison to other hotels in the area. Beware of the rooms with shared bathrooms! This is not acceptable in this day and age!

There’s a lot left to be desired at this property. Very noisy in rooms - doors slam, conversations can be heard. No water in rooms. Confusing check-in area that feels like a hallway and is always seemingly in chaotic state. Little closet space and small area in bathroom (king bedroom). I guess appropriate for 4 star.

Hotel is beautiful well kept, perfectly clean and in a perfect location. Here are the items that kept us giving a higher score: 1-Not a single drawer to be found in the room. 2-The armoire has a broken roller guide on the left door so it does not open or close properly. 3-The HVAC unit in the room would not function correctly nor comfortably regulate room temperature. So we opened the windows at night to have a tolerable sleeping temperature and that subjected us to late night guest and street noises. 4-The trash collection bins are apparently just outside our (open) windows and our daily (much too early) wake up call was the sanitation collection trucks. --every day-- 5- The fridge contained items leftover from previous guests. It had not been serviced. And fee based items were missing (water and sunscreen) from our room basket. We brought this to the attention of the hotel and we're not charged for them. (Thank you) 6- Bathroom details. Again no shelf in the shower for shaving supplies or any toiletry items. Also when the room had been serviced no one noticed we had no shower gel. The bottle was empty. We were given a replacement but it was not installed, and as there are no shelves, we had no place to keep the shower gel but on the shower floor. Also ...No place to store or hang wet washcloths. Not nearly enough hooks or racks for damp towels. I know the goal of minimalism in design thinks of these as too fussy but guest comfort does require a place to hang a few
