"For the price I thought this place was just okay. It was very expensive and the rooms were small. You could hear every little noise from the hallway, in the adjacent rooms and in the room above. I would pick another hotel if I go back to Nantucket."

"The hotel is fantastic, I wish I could give 5 stars but the property has the thinnest walls, so everything done next to or above his heard clearly. The noise on the sidewalks are as if inside. Great location, staff is awesome. Just noise early in morning and late at night."
