“Had a very pleasant date nite dinner at OLI. It was fairly busy when we arrived and hostess staff was busy but fine once she got to us. The Side Door jazz club was having a great concert and some people came for that. I had a delicious filet mignon, great crisp root veggies and delicious mashed potatoes. My husband started with NE clam chowder which was filled with clams and delicious cream broth. He also ordered salmon cakes as an app and I had more than I wanted: delicious. He chose the pork tenderloin and liked it very much but not as much as I liked my filet. He also complained that the menu was limited. I was happy with it: meat, fish, veg entrees. We were too full for dessert. We were very happy to see the Inn busy again.”

“My husband and I stayed here in August for a few days so we could explore the area and spend time with my brother and his family, who were renting a cottage nearby. My mother came with us and rented her own room. It was the perfect home base to return to at night after spending an afternoon on a Lights and Sights cruise in New London and a day at the beach with my brother. The room was clean, spacious, comfortable, and affordable. We liked that it had well-stocked kitchenette with a full size refrigerator. The owner was friendly and accommodating when we made our reservation, and again when I had to change it to a different date. We were easily able to get into our room using a code. It's a super short drive to Niantic, so we could easily drive to the bakery in the morning to pick up breakfast sandwiches and grinders for the beach and had plenty of restaurants to choose from, including in nearby Westbrook. My only suggestion is for the room to have at least one comfy chair, as it is plenty spacious to fit one and I would have preferred to not sit on the bed at night to watch TV or on the breakfast bar stool to drink my coffee, though I understand this is a personal preference. I ended up bringing in a beach chair for these purposes.”

“My daughter had her wedding here. It was perfect. The wedding planners were gracious and helpful. From the photos on the dock and the cocktail hour where guests were greeted with signature cocktails to the delicious food and excellent service, it was perfect. Excellent hotel staff also.”

“What a wonderful experience! My husband and I love taking weekend gateway to different places. I came across the Inn and couldn't have been happier. The bed and breakfast atmosphere was just what we needed for our Valentines Weekend away. The staff was friendly, breakfast was delicious the view while having coffee was breath taking and relaxing. The menu was just enough. The room was our favorite, the decor, the layout, the cozy feeling we felt while staying there. By far one of the most quiet places at night. THIS was exactly what we wanted to recharge and relax! The inn provided cheese and wine in the evenings and cookies! YUMM, coffee bars set up in both buildings. It was perfect for us. We will be back we enjoyed our stay so much! Thank you to the staff for making it even more memorable.”

“This was bar none the perfect spot for our girls weekend. Every single detail in this home was special and intentional. There were slippers for us, gorgeous plates and serving ware, tea options, a record player (with an amazing selection!), books, and the coziest bedding of all time. The decor is objectively stunning and seemed to nail both a cozy and a minimal/lodge vibe that made everything feel special. The fireplace was easy to use and instructions were clear, and the hosts were extremely communicative. We all agreed it would be hard to top this place, so we may just need to come back year after year.”

“Gorgeous hotel and immaculate rooms with a friendly staff and great hot water pressure! Love the live edge table and bench too! And having two chairs was super convenient!

Rooms: Immaculately clean and super convenient with plenty of space and all the amenities you need. Sink with a large counter, hanging area for clothes, tub/shower combo with hot water and good water pressure, a dresser with several drawers, plenty of outlets, good lighting, a wonderfully convenient and gorgeous table, two chairs (very comfortable), and two beds.

Safety: Very nice location. Good visibility to the parking lot. Locks on doors were standard but effective.

Walkability: There is a wonderful little Himalayan cafe next door that offers a discount for guests. There is another restaurant across the street called the Tea Kettle that serves breakfast and lunch.”

“Was lucky to find this place on a friday night in the summer at the beach. The staff is awesome. Had a flat tire the morning I was checking out. Front desk people helped me with a compressor and directions to a tire place. Really nice people. The room was fine. Nicest econolodge. Breakfast is pathetic, but coffee is available 24/7. Don't need much more than that...thank you for your generous hospitality.”

“So I’ve stayed here a few times now and I’ve got to say the location is beautiful! Right by the playhouse and a few really good restaurants. The rooms are cozy with a modern classic feeling very cozy. I’ve noticed the people that stay here are all very easy going and kind ? plus the young man downstairs is always around to help if I need it! It feels like a small community right here in the building. Will absolutely be staying again ?”

“I have had to stay here for a few weeks until my home is ready to move in. The staff has been incredibly kind and helpful, the front desk staff, Jessica, her mother Brenda, Manu, Sam, Steve and the other grounds man. I feel safe here as a female traveling alone. Thank you to everyone- it’s a family run place, and they treat you like family. ?”
