"This hotel is so quaint and in the loveliest area of Nantucket with so much natural beauty. We stayed in the main part of the inn (we booked late so not many room choices).

"The lobby area was great. Although the room felt a bit sparse- seemed to be missing local charm. And we didn’t realize it was right at the end of the airport- we could have walked to it, instead we had a $23 taxi fee. The staff was outstanding- probably some of the warmest folks I have ever experienced. ..."
