Wonderful Inn!
Lovely hotel, great attention to detail. The staff was so eager to go out of their way to offer assistance. Everyone from the housekeeper to the staff behind the desk were so kind. Great experience. My only complaint was a customer who turned the common living room area into his own personal office and was sharing names and details of real estate transactions for all to hear. Should have been asked to take it elsewhere.

Creaky old building, there’s a 2” gap under the door, and the only security is a chain clasp. AC doesn’t work so I tried to call the desk, the phone doesn’t work. I got three staff members to come up and they couldn’t get the AC working, and refused to replace the phone. Stay clear of this place.

Old world charm would best describe this hotel. I chose it mostly for its proximity to Marginal Way, but would choose it again for so many reasons. When we checked it, someone was playing the baby grand piano in the lobby & warm cookies were waiting for us. Our room was spotless & beautifully decorated. We were given suggestions for dining. The heart of downtown & shopping were within easy walking distance. It’s nice places like this still exist & take you back to a time of class & elegance far removed from the hotel chains that dominate so many resort destinations. Without asking, we were told we could leave our car several hours after checkout if we planned to continue to explore the area. Experiences like this property provide are few. Hoping to return & stay longer.

Very helpful staff gave us a quick overview of Ogunquit and we felt comfortable heading out to explore right away. The hotel is located close to town. Afternoon cookies were a welcome surprise after a long day in the car!
