Oldy but goody
Great location. Inn is a no frills stop; dated but clean. Owner is up front at check-in about electrical shortcomings and the work-arounds. Shower was hot. Bed a bit hard.

We stayed 2 nights. Friendly service, clean room, nice place with lawn chairs with a view on the tidal bore. The indoor furniture is a little dated but clean and functional. Overall a great place for the price. I would stay again. Thank you for great service.

Although an older establishment, our room was spotless and obviously has been renovated recently. The room size was good. We appreciated the table and chairs by the window overlooking the Salmon River at the bottom of the hill.
Bill, the manager, was friendly and helpful, and we really appreciated the fact that the efficient and thorough housekeeping staff-person found a charger that we left behind and kept it for us!
Price and location were major factors in staying there, too.
Happy with our choice.
