It is a quaint , small inn with a long history, just located in the harbour corner. It seems like running by Indian owner now, I don’t feel it is clean enough, eg. I even didn’t touch the breakfast fruit, bcs I clearly saw the dirt on the grape.

Location was very nice and peaceful. Be aware this is a century home with no air conditioning. Only a problem if very warm temperatures expected. Supplied breakfast was excellent. Rooms were unique as is the building.

This is a unique property right near the water. Each room is unique, full of antique furniture, and modern upgraded bathrooms. The shower had good pressure which is often hard to find. The included breakfast had many options, but could use a little more imagination.

This property is under new owners and, athough the service was very good, the upkeep and quality of the breakfast was not at the level of the previous owners. The 3 guys who remodeled and redesigned the property gave excellent service and a breakfast that was second to none!

Antony

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Breakfast had these awesome ratings but it was really, really poor. Parking was in an adjacent hotel but not allowed outside Thatch which was odd when there are a minimal amount of rooms. It meant parking, carrying bags and then parking again. There was limited staff and you had to search for them if requiring anything. for instance the coffee machine was out of water and we had to wait 20-30 minutes for a member of staff to appear in the lounge to refill. The place was cute and had some views, good location for the ferry especially on the back of a long journey but everything about the property and service could be drastically improved.

Great historical property located on a harbor, that was comfortable and interesting. Unfortunately, we missed their breakfast, as we had to leave before breakfast service started at 8 a.m. They did provide a to-go bag of goodies; the only recommendation I would make is that they not heat the bagel (they gave us the bag the night before) as it was hard as a rock by the time we left in the morning and not easily edible.
