    Location: the hotel was near all the shopping and restaurants, Freeport's shopping area, and many eating places and other attractions. Dined at Johnny Rockets, it was relatively near the venue. The breakfast was savoury and there was a huge variety of appetising food.

    steep stairs

    The rooms were filled with charming decor and had a very cozy vibe. My bed was super comfortable. Connie, the innkeeper, was helpful. Breakfast exceeded my expectations each morning with delicious homemade options. The location made it easy to stroll to LL Bean and the shops in Freeport. I did notice some Wi-Fi issues . The steep stairs might pose a challenge with mobility issues.

    There are nice gardens and a comfy lounge area to relax in after exploring the town. The bathroom could've used a bit of an update, but it didn't spoil the experience at all 😊

    The room was comfortable, with snacks and lovingly crafted decor. Springing out of bed to enjoy a good homemade breakfast made the mornings special.

    the wifi connection was spotty.

    The homemade breakfast was a good treat, and our service dog felt right at home. The warmth of the environment.

    My kids wished there was a pool or play area for them to enjoy.

    Cozy rooms with thoughtful touches made our stay enjoyable. Steep stairs in the old building were a bit inconvenient. Close to shops and nice breakfast options. Great for walking tours around the area too.

    Delicious Breakfast and Cozy Vibe

    I loved the cozy ambiance and good homemade breakfast with freshly baked blueberry pancakes and fruit parfaits. The thoughtful touches throughout the inn, like snacks and unique decor. Being just a short walk from shops added to the convenience. One improvement could be clearer guidelines regarding room policies for families.
