The room was lovely in a historic home with access to everything we were looking for. The staff was extremely friendly and hospitable. The location was perfect- across from Congress Hall, around the corner from Washington Street Mall, and just a short walk to the beach.

Parking was easy and secure. The one bedroom suite was spacious. We had access to all of Congress Hall’s amenities. We visited The Brown Room last evening for a nightcap and enjoyed the live music (guitar player).

The place is very clean quaint. A little dated and there was no fridge or microwave in the room, but we were not bothered by it. Great location right by the main strip, and you can also use the Congress Hall grounds as the two properties have the same owners. It’s also right across from Congress Hall. My husband and I really liked it.

Beautiful resort-a chess to all of Congress Hall’s amenities. We lived our one bedroom suite: it had a covered front porch with rockets and a private back garden with two comfy chairs and a small picnic table. We lived the live music at the Brown Room

Major misrepresentation of actual rooms appearance . Stayed inside main house rooms, that are very old, tiny claustrophobic with few antique partially dysfunctional and broken furniture items. Our first room had impossibly small shower and sink less than the size of the airplane ones. Were able to upgrade to a bigger room, but the old smell and overall discomfort was impossible to fix.
