The staff went above and beyond to make us welcome. Professional yet so friendly and helpful. There are two wonderful restaurants just steps away from the hotel. I would stay here over the chain hotels nearby. Great value for what you are getting. And there's breakfast!

The hotel has a classic, historic charm with comfortable rooms and a cozy lobby area that feels more like a bed-and-breakfast than a typical chain hotel. The staff were friendly and accommodating, and check-in was quick and easy. My room was clean, quiet, and nicely furnished with a comfortable bed and vintage-style décor. The continental breakfast was simple but fresh, with coffee, pastries, and fruit to start the day.

Great value and location

The rooms here are very spacious and clean, and it's great having a desk and chair and also large refrigerator. Very easy check-in and room key codes (sent by email). Location is outstanding for proximity to historic, art, and Longwood Gardens. Coffee shop right next door is fabulous, too, as is floral shop. Staff very welcoming and rooms quiet (some street noise from Rt 1.
