“Will absolutely go back!”
It’s cute! And there’s free breakfast, wine & cheese at 5 pm, hot tubs, and a pool. We were off‑season, but I bet the decks & patios are busy in‑season. During a fall nor’easter storm we got a free room upgrade. There are endless outdoor areas to sit, watch, and relax. The room was great, though it was a bit odd that they wanted to add a second TV and a fireplace upstairs; they were positioned at the top of the stairs angled away from the bed/sitting area, making the TV hard to use. The spa services were good. The restaurant offered great food, including the best arugula beet salad I’ve ever had and a delicious cheeseburger. The location was close to everything within a short walk, and taxis and Uber were available if you’re too lazy to walk up the hill. There was direct access to small beach areas and a short drive to the main beaches. Great restaurants, street food, shops, and entertainment were right down the road on Commercial Street.
The only negatives were that the outdoor areas could use updates – the rooms were recently updated and painted, but not the outdoor spaces. It would have been nicer if the restaurant and spa were more closely linked to the hotel; it felt awkward to send charges to the hotel room and to order “take‑out” instead of “room service” from the restaurant. On cold or rainy days it would have been convenient to have food delivered to the room. The pool was generally warmer than the outside hot tub, which was unpleasant! They checked the hot tub a couple of times and said it was okay, but we literally began shivering in it and used the pool to warm up. I didn’t know about the indoor hot tub and spa available to guests with key access off‑hours from the spa appointments until another guest told us at the end of our stay. It would have been helpful to know earlier in the week, as it was a cold & rainy week. The music in the restaurant at dinner was odd – techno as if it were a dance club, which was strange for an upscale restaurant. I tried to ask for the music to be changed to the morning playlist (rat‑pack! Good for us oldies), and I think there was a language barrier, so it was turned down a bit but not changed.
