  : The breakfast was lovely with just the right selection. The original facility is beautiful. (The more recent addition however is architecturally unattractive). Perfect for weddings!
  : They put us in a room that had a view of a brick wall and air conditioning equipment. I believe it was room 120. We were very disappointed since the hotel was not full but we’re too tired to request a change and we were only there for one night.

  : Breakfast was pleasant, though options tended to be carb and cake heavy. A few more protein options would be perfect. Coffee and teas were lovely.Rooms were great and comfortable. Check in and out was smooth and easy. Staff was involved and caring. Delicious glass of wine on the house each night.Pool, gym and hot tub were excellent and set in lovely setting.House was very charming and immaculate. Lovely gardens. Lots of free parking and location is minutes to shopping, restaurants and beaches as well as Point Judith ferries to Block Island.
  : At this price point there should be automatic daily or every other day cleaning, trash removal and fresh towels. If you ask, they will do this. But should not need to ask. Access to pool requires a trip to the spa desk check in who run the pool separately. Not a big deal, but annoying.Most important: ask about weddings and other events in the large tent out back. They do mention noise from this on their welcome message, but because this is a small complex, the noise in rooms facing the back and tent, the music noise is quiteibe

  : Breakfast was good. I wish there was a gluten free option for the breakfast sandwich, but I guess you can’t have it all.
  : We stayed on a Saturday night and there was a wedding, so the band was playing til 10:30. This was fun and we felt kind of tempted to crash the wedding, but we refrained. It also made it hard to relax in our room. But we understand this is a wedding venue and the music and all noise did stop promptly at 10:30pm.

  : The transformation of the property (catholic girls school) into a destination wedding venue with 8 acres of planted grapevines is a cool feat. The interior design has a modern aesthetic appeal. The rooms are pretty and comfortable. The breakfast is superb.
  : oy. Well, overall we didn't feel very welcome. Some of the staff get it- how to be hospitable, however, most staff are just college aged students there for the summer killing time. We did not like the spa situation and access to the pool (you had to bother one of the kids to open the gate if you wanted to swim, and the pool is geared to lap swimming for outside paid guests). I was frequently asked "what are you doing here?" I had to explain I was a guest. We were offended by some of the comments of the inn manager; again, we felt put off. Too bad, this place has potential, but overall caters mainly to the wedding parties.

  : This is the perfect retreat for a couple.
  : My only complaint is the pool schedule and availability
