We’ve been coming to the Stanton House Inn every few months for the past two years and just love it. It makes an excellent alternative to the bland anonymity of a hotel, being small enough to feel cozy, and yet sufficiently “hands off” to allow for a good sense of privacy. The ground floor has three living rooms, where you can sit, relax, read, and even work, without the goldfish-bowl feeling of a regular hotel lobby. Rooms are very clean, and beds really comfortable. (I happened to be in lobby when cleaning staff came in—three young women exuding good cheer and energy with every movement.) But this place is not for those who want full service (e.g., there’s no staff on site after 4 PM on most days). Also, this being a house rather than a hotel, not every room is the same in terms of convenience.
