A great location but a well worn property in need of updating. Our room had an iron burn in the entranceway carpet poorly covered by a small area rug.
View of the inn from the waterfront.
Great view from 301.

Fabulous location, walkable to all attractions. Room is somewhat standard in an aged building but practically renovated. Staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful. Stay here if you want the convenience when exploring.
