No Money Back - Caution!
My ferry in Yarmouth was cancelled and I had no need for my room, but the hotel.com reservation was non-refundable. Missed that in the reservation. Be careful using this service.

Perfect place to stay when catching the CAT Ferry
Great service and well maintained older property. Their breakfast was a pleasant surprise. Just what we needed before catching the CAT ferry the next morning.

The breakfast included was great , they make eggs custom for you, and have normal buffet items with good choices. The towels were really nice, bedding also. We give 4 stars because the air conditioner was old and made a lot of noise. My husband had to wear noise cancelling ear buds. Sink faucet was not long enough to brush teeth.

4/10 Fair

Photos do not exemplify poor quality of exterior and interior of rooms. Kitchenette and furniture were from the 1950’s. Breakfast was mediocre. Description on Expedia said hotel was short walk to ferry dock, when in reality, it was 25 blocks on a busy highway. We were on the 2nd floor in front with noisy traffic and motorcycles reving their engines all night. I am handicapped and requested a first floor room, and was refused because of booking on Expedia.. I suspect this is partially a weekly rental hotel for the homeless. . All this for $200 night! We would have driven on to another town had it not been for an early morning ferry tide to Maine. Don’t get fooled by BW advertising.

The toilet was not working property so we had to take lid off and adjust chain. Bad odor or dampness and mildew? Wallpaper peeling off. Air conditioner noisy and blows right on bed and couldn’t keep up with moisture in air,
