AVOID AVOID AVOID

Positives first - beautiful newly refurbished hotel which is both comfortable and came with all room amenities. Free pastries and fruit supplied for breakfast which was a lovely touch. Now for the reason I would avoid - we arrived on a Monday and apparently the hotel is ‘closed’ on Mondays - no one whatsoever at the property - should have had an email and text message with self check in details and door code to get in which I didn’t get. There was a phone number on the closed sign which you are expected to call - I’m from the UK and it would have cost me a fortune to ring this US number from my UK mobile. Luckily an American lady was just entering the hotel and rang on my behalf. I’ve travelled the world and never before found a hotel that was closed with no staff!So we self check in, we found Jewellry in our room that I sent an email about (no one to hand it in too) - didn’t get a reply until after we had checked out so just had to leave it in the room where I had found it (hopefully it wasn’t sentimental to the loser). And to top it off I am now fighting to be charged what I agreed with Hotels.com on booking - my price was the room rate including tax - the hotel have charged me that total amount as the room rate and then added tax on top…. 4 emails in, I’ve sent the hotels.com details but they are still overcharging me. I very impersonal hotel which I would absolutely avoid. It was our last night of a New England 6 state vacation and has left a bad taste - never again!

It’s a beautiful place. The only complaint I have is that I requested an extra blanket and was told housekeeping would bring it that day-they never came. When we returned that evening I told the staff and they brought up a cloth shower curtain and an extra robe. Also the lotion bottle was broken and I couldn’t remove it to fix it so that was super annoying because I purposely didn’t bring any since they said they had it in the room. We never received any housekeeping during our 4 day 3 night stay but there was an envelope left for a tip. Heather did the best she could to make everything right and is the only reason for the 4 stars instead of 3-girl deserves a raise. Would I stay there again? Probably if I couldn’t find somewhere else but I’d request the extra the extra blanket way in advance and ask Heather to personally check, lower my expectations on the housekeeping, and remember to bring my own lotion just in case.

This inn is lovely. The outdoor patio is beautiful. The room, immaculate and the beds comfy. Our shower in the bath was spacious. Plenty of towels and there are even robes if you like. Had a drink in the bar. The whole place is just wonderful. We didn't eat there because we wanted to go to Finz in Salem, but a look at the menu says the food is varied and delicious.

Unfortunately, we spent only one night at this very quaint historic hotel. The room was spacious and had an incredibly comfortable bed! There is a restaurant, beautiful outdoor patio with bar, string lights and even a speakeasy in the basement! Parking was easy and free. The hotel staff was wonderful!

Great stay. Only 2 critiques: There is quite a bit of street noise, but it's at a busy intersection so what can you really do. The wifi is a tad slow, at least on the 3rd floor. Otherwise, lovely.
