The view from the deck is breath taking. Unfortunately the room needs major work. The doors to the room and the deck would not close properly without slamming it shut with your body. The deck doors would not lock, and the screen doors would not open properly. The hot water turned cold whenever you filled the tub or took a shower. There was no place to hang your towels when you were in the shower unless you used the toilet paper holder stand. The remote controls needed instructions to use but there were no instructions available. The bed was horrible, the springs were shot and it was like sleeping in a pot hole. I would not recommend the hotel.

Charming property, excellent location. Cleaning staff was outstanding! Minor problems with broken screen door handle on porch, main door to room warped and hard to open/close, emergency exit door at end of hall was broken. Room was huge, clean and comfortable.

I couldn't recommend this property more highly - the location is extremely convenient and fairly central, but somehow (at least with a room facing the harbor), I never heard ANY noise from the outside! The owner is friendly, helpful, and down-to-earth (and don't get me started on his adorable dog), and the cleaning staff are friendly and thorough. Breakfast choices were basic but 100% satisfied my breakfast needs and the coffee was great. It was also so pleasant to relax over breakfast on the porch watching the world go by. The bed was comfortable and there was plenty of storage space for clothes, etc. Having a tiny balcony over looking the water was a special touch. Check-in and check-out were a breeze. The one downside I would note was the very strong mildew smell in the room - but honestly I think this is something that you almost can't avoid in a B&B that's in a classic older building and right on the water, and it didn't bother me too much. I would stay here again in a heartbeat - and in fact, I plan to!

We stayed in waterfront queen. View was beautiful. Room itself was small. Drawer space was mostly built in under the bed. Cleaning woman was awesome and so sweet. The house Labrador, May, was a mellow sweetheart. Breakfast offered was limited but fine. Owners werent very social.

Overpriced and Underwhelming

We stayed at The Anchor Inn Beach House in Provincetown, and honestly, it felt wildly overpriced for what we got. The room was tiny and outdated, especially the bathroom — damaged tile, stained grout, and a wall-mounted hairdryer that didn’t even work (and no backup). The old-school metal key was quirky until it stopped working reliably, and there’s no one at the desk 24/7 if you have issues - just a phone number. The walls were thin (hello, neighbor’s 7am phone call), and the mattress had clearly lived several lives, though the bedding itself was super clean. The location was great, and the woman who cleaned the rooms was genuinely lovely and helpful. But overall? You’re paying a luxury price for motel-level vibes.
