Characterful hotel in fabulous location. Convenient for shops a beach. Good restaurant. Sea view from third floor. No lift so big effort required to get cases up stairs. Adjoining rooms had paper thin walls and lacked some privacy.

Loved our time at this charming inn! The location is wonderful and the service was also great. The only negatives we had was not having an AC and coffee maker. Other than that, a great property to stay at.

We booked an ocean-view room, parking included, for one night. They forgot to mention the scaffolding covering the view side of the building. Parking is available only for the first 20 of 49 rooms, so you have to drive around to find a spot and then move every two hours. The lounge looks lovely, but you cannot relax with a drink there, no food/drinks allowed, which is NOT shown on their website photos. It's an historic building, badly restored. Please see photos... The bathroom and closet are 2-star hotel level. It was disappointing and did not reflect the rating listed. We deeply regret following your advice.

A lovely old property with many many steps & no elevator. Sent on my way without giving me info that I needed bell hop. Knew nothing about local wine options. Not tuned in to customer needs. Great location. Well kept facility.

Property in need of major updates and maintenance. We had to hear constant maintenance sounds of hammering, trucks etc with no transparency that it would be taking place during our stay or concessions to acknowledge how much it detracted from our experience. Front desk staff appeared miserable and exhausted.

The Pine Inn continues its slide toward being a tired old property rather than a charming inn.

Lovely Hotel

Love the hotel. Didn't like the room. It was at the end of a hallway so thought it would be quiet. Unfortunately the maid's closet was also there so when we came back to rest in the late afternoon there was a lot of activity out there, including the use of walkie talkies which was annoying. We would definitely stay here again, but in a different room. It is noisy outside in the early morning as garbage is collected daily in the area due to the number of restaurants. This historical hotel is beautiful inside. No elevator so if you are on the third floor, it's a bit of a hike.

The Pine Inn has a great location and historic charm, but unfortunately, our check-in experience was disappointing. The front desk staff was cold and dismissive, which left a poor first impression. While the issue was later addressed and we appreciated the follow-up, that initial interaction impacted our overall stay. A warmer, more welcoming approach would have made a big difference.

Overall very outdated building with outdated room interior, dead bug on the carpet floor, strange smell although not too strong, and the floor of my room is connected to the stairs, so whenever people walks up the stairs there was a very loud noise in the room.

The hotel is in desperate need of an upgrade…very old & run down. The staff at the reception are rude & not accommodating at all. Seems like the hotel management has changed. It was our anniversary trip & we asked for a quiet room. They gave us the room above where all the deliveries are done 4:00 AM…hence a lot of noise…and then when we told them about it the new person at reception said that it’s one of their worst rooms.
