Pier Blue Inn Old Saybrook - Essex

10/10 Excellent
"The vibe of PBG didn’t quite match up with my original expectations for a coastal beachside inn, but we had a great time. This was largely due to a room upgrade upon arrival and the kindness of the inn keeper. I’d request a room at the back of the property, which has a gorgeous view out onto the marshes and faces the West so the sunrise doesn’t rain in through your window in the morning. The bed was very comfortable, the rooms were quiet despite being on a main road, and the AC worked great. Oh, and hot tip. The Tea Kettle restaurant across the road has a fantastic breakfast."
