“The inn's location places you steps from Nantucket's downtown, yet on a quiet street; inside, the rooms mix updated bathrooms with the charm of an older building. I especially appreciate the innkeeper's personal touch, from the homemade quiche to thoughtful recommendations. A stay here, while reflecting the island's prices, is worthwhile.”
