I found it "different" that in 2024 not to have a tv in the room. Parking is on the street or 3 blocks away! Went to breakfast at 7:45 - there was none until someone rushed in say someone went home sick (Which I didn't believe) & later it was a 'miss communication'. the danish was cold, the micro didn't work, coffee? Obviousls I made a bad 'where to stay' decision.

Great downtown location, lame breakfast.
We have stayed at this hotel many times. It seems to be going downhill. Room wasn’t bad but shower was not the cleanest. 1 fairly thin blanket ( glad we brought our own). The 1st room we had had no remote for the television, went down to front desk and he said yea that room does not have a working tv, want me to move you !Breakfast” was awful, nothing to choose from, the few pastries they did have were gross. When we checked in, there was an employee at the front desk. When out to our car to get a few more things, came back in and had a question about parking and that same employee was outside chatting with friends while we waited. I hope they can change their ways so that we can co time to stay at the hotel, we love the location.

The rooms were generously sized, offering a sense of comfort and openness, while the staff were exceptionally accommodating and eager to assist. Additionally, the location was conveniently situated near UMass Dartmouth University, making it an ideal choice for visitors to the campus.

Checkin was "ok" - person talking with friends. Really surprised that in 2024 there was no tv. Go to breakfast at 7;45 - none. person came in said someone went home sick - which I do not believe and later mentioned miss communicaion. Parking - another story. Let's just say we won't be returning. I made a poor stay selection.

Beautiful property right downtown. The room was well decorated and the bed was comfortable. Unfortunately, the hot water was only lukewarm and when our room wasn't cleaned, they informed us that we had to request the day before.

The property and staff were great. Only issue was the heater didn't work and it was freezing. The front desk didn't have a space heater or solution. So I had to sleep each night being fully dressed

The television in the room did not function. The front desk offered to reimburse me $50 for the inconvenience, as they could not repair it and there was no other room available.

Always a perfect stay.
We had a very pleasant although brief stay and everything as always was perfect. The rooms are clean and comfortable. Please note the location is great and close to the ferry. However, what are described as harbor view rooms, really arent much of a view. You get a peek through buildings. Regardless, the staff are very friendly, a nice bar/restaurant, rooms are clean and a neat vibe to the building. We have stayed before and will be back again.

Refurbished older hotel in the historic district, walking distance to the whaling museum, waterfront and more. Contemporary décor with a spacious lobby and bar, all at a reasonable rate. On the downside, the hotel is understaffed, the continental breakfast and coffee aren’t available until after 6:30 am. And during our three day stay, our room was not cleaned. No clean sheets, no towel changes. I’m guessing this was an oversight, not a hotel policy.,

My third time here and probably the best. The city appears to have finished the sidewalk and street upgrades and looks much better. There are several dining options in the area which is very walkable. There’s plenty of whaling history in this old section of town. The hotel is a converted building but is very clean and not in your modern conventional style of hotel. There’s a bar on the ground floor with several tv’s. They do offer a limited free breakfast of coffee, pastries, cereal, juices, and bagels. This is an improvement that was lacking before. The staff is always friendly, welcoming, and accommodating.

“Breakfast” was probably the worst I have had at a hotel. “Free” parking was blocks away.
