Our room overlooked the picturesque port of New Bedford with great views of ships and sky. Our room was also very quiet and we had a suite which really helped at bedtime as I could sleep while my husband watched sports on tv. The complimentary breakfast was good and I was quite pleased to see non-dairy options--oat milk. We loved the location, on site parking, and will be returning.
