Very quaint, and well strategized in the detail of hospitality everything from a noise dampener to having the a picture frame of Nantucket Island centered perfectly in the room to relaxing music in morning to jazzy at night and there’s much more if you pay attention

Beautiful inn with unique layout and great location. Staff was very friendly and accommodating. Breakfast in the morning was delicious and their coffee/ tea/ and wine bar in the evening is a nice added touch. We had a great time and would definitely stay there again. The Milestone suite was small but had everything we needed. Make sure to ask about the front door being locked at night and using the side gate and door to avoid any confusion.

A wonderful place to stay
The Inn is so cute and the breakfast was delicious. The room was comfortable with lots of amenities, and the place was in walking distance of the downtown area. It's also dog friendly! We took our pup.
