Amazing staff.

Up to par when it comes to staff and professionalisms. Property/lobby/hallways/all seemed to be cleaned regularly and again was all up to par. We didn’t expect to be booking a room for this trip. But we booked the room late at night and still were able to check in at the late hour it was, and they actually did allow me some extra check out time after explaining that as happy as we were to be back home in MA/Plymouth. We were there to attend my aunts services as she unexpectedly passed. The staff was so understanding, very empathetic to our whole ordeal, and it made our unexpected trip home a little bit easier. With the tiniest of things such as kind words, or even allowing an extra hour for us to check out. Thank you so very much for everything staff did during our stay!
Beautiful view literally right in between the Mayflower and Plymouth Rock.
Still has that rustic coastal feel, with touches of class and style.

Not as advertised

The treadmills in the gym didnt work, no lock on the bathroom door, they dont allow kids in the hot tub and we filtered specifically by hotels that had hot tubs, and the slide didnt open until 3:00 so we couldnt even utilize it.
