I found this B & B on Nantucket to be a lovely stay. The rooms were spacious, clean, and nicely decorated with a large bathroom and closet, offering a gesture of good will. The service exceeded our expectations, putting us in a beautiful suite. The location was outstanding, perfect for exploring Nantucket town. The dining was decent but could be more varied. The facilities were top-notch.

My stay at the hotel was overall pleasant. The rooms were spacious, clean, and nicely decorated with a large bathroom and closet; however, they lacked drawers for storing clothing. The service was excellent, with staff going above and beyond to assist us throughout our stay. The location was perfect for our needs, near restaurants and areas of town we wanted to explore. The dining experience was more than adequate, offering a good selection of breakfast items. The facilities met our expectations, providing everything we needed for a comfortable stay.

I had an amazing stay at this hotel. The rooms were cozy and the staff was incredibly welcoming. The location is perfect for exploring the historic area, and the dining, while lacking hot food options, offered delicious choices. A few minor downsides like the tiny room size and the outdated dining room carpet did little to detract from the overall positive experience.
