The hotel is unique—not a cookie cutter, generic kind of set up. That said, while our room was clean and comfortable, it was jammed so tightly with furniture in a too small space that it was difficult to get around the bed. There was not enough room for our suitcases to not be in the way.

Disliked: Cleanliness
So the stay was convenient. I will say it was within walking distance to the ferry, dining options around and a whale museum. Nice little historic area. Safety-wise there were some homeless but people didn’t bother you as much. My room wasn’t cleaned properly, but again it was doable as I tend to wipe things down anyway. There were stains on the curtains and used shower gel still in the shower. The bed was ultra soft but not too bad. The staff was okay. Neyla was very friendly and knowledgeable about area. The other staff was not as friendly or warm. But they did their job nonetheless. The breakfast was continental style but there was a little bakery a block away, where you can get fresh baked goods. I would say the hotel has the location going for them. Being within walking distance to most of what you may need and a ferry ride away from Martha’s Vineyard.

My family had a great time while we were kn town for the Martha's Vineyard African American Film Festival. The location was convenient for us to get to the Ferry, parking, grab dinner. We will definitely stay here again.

The staff was nice but the room was very dirty…hairs in the sheets, looked like the bed was not cleaned between guests…bathroom hair and floss on floor …there was 1 towel in bathroom, the staff did bring towels right away. Had to walk down 3 flights of stairs with luggage since elevators were not working The area around the hotel is seedy…lots of homeless…the waterfront which is 10-15 min walk is nice near the ferry. I would not call this a boutique hotel…no food service at the hotel restaurant, maybe cause it was a Sunday? lol would find somewhere else to stay
