Staying at this hotel was a delightful experience. The rooms were charming and very comfortable, especially being 'away from noise,' offering a peaceful stay. The service was attentive, with little touches like bringing us ice and hot water for tea. The location was superb, just a short drive from many attractions and close to a beautiful beach. The dining options were top-notch, with delicious meals and drink specials to enjoy. However, the lack of shelving in the bathrooms was a minor inconvenience.

I had a cozy stay at the hotel. The rooms, though small, were comfortable, very clean, and nicely decorated, fitting for the shore. A downside was the lack of telephones in the rooms, making it inconvenient to contact the front desk without walking down. The service was excellent, providing a very comfortable place to lounge around, and the location was stunning with gorgeous flowers and comfy seating. The dining experience was amazing, especially during Happy Hour with drink specials and $1 oysters, but the loud music after 10 pm was a bit of a drawback.

My stay at the hotel was pleasant overall. The rooms, though small, felt comfortable and breezy with bright colors and big windows. They were clean and offered a nice view, though could be a bit noisy due to their proximity to the front desk. The service was excellent, with staff always willing to help and ensure our needs were met. The location, although with some limitations, was ideal for those interested in visiting the Portland Head lighthouse and enjoying a quiet beachfront setting. Dining options were delicious, especially during breakfast, and the hotel facilities were well-kept.

The hotel offered a nice and simple room, very clean and nicely decorated, perfect for the shore. The service was overall pleasant and accommodating, though there was some noise after 10 pm. Its location is unbeatable, a short walk to one of the most beautiful beaches in New England, with stunning surroundings.

I had a wonderful stay at the hotel. The rooms were fresh and bright, and the newly remodeled bathrooms were a nice touch. The bar area offered delicious seafood dishes, especially the Lobstah rolls. However, there was a small hiccup with the room allocation on the first night.
