Who it’s NOT for: Modern-hotel / resort seekers — this is an 18th-century inn; expect historic quirks, variation room-to-room, and no full-service resort amenities or spa. Beach-at-the-door travelers — it's downtown in the historic district, a drive to the sand. Families needing lots of space or kid programming — it's an intimate, adults-leaning historic inn; confirm child policy before booking. Anyone needing guaranteed step-free access — a 1791 multi-building inn means stairs and uneven historic construction; confirm accessible rooms before booking.
Biggest surprise: that you can actually sleep in a 1791 house — the oldest inn in the oldest city — with a full hot breakfast, social hour, evening desserts, a pool, and bikes included, on the quiet south end of St. George Street away from the day-tripper crush.
Worth the money? yes for a couple whose whole point is authentic deep history and B&B hospitality in a landmark building.
Best room: a room or cottage with a fireplace and/or jacuzzi in one of the original historic buildings for the romantic, deep-history stay; the separate cottage suits a couple wanting more space/privacy. Exact room/suite/cottage names not verified this pass — confirm on the official site. The full hot breakfast, social hour, and small pool are the included draws.
