Frequently Asked Questions

What are your rates?

Please click here, enter your dates, and click 'Check Availability' to see our rates. We offer the same rate to everyone and do not discount for memberships such as AAA or AARP.

BOOK DIRECT and SAVE! When you book direct here with us, you avoid service, cleaning and parking fees that come with all 3rd party sites like Hotel Tonight, AirBnB, booking.com, expedia.com & VRBO.

When is check-in and check-OUt times? 

Check-In begins at 4PM daily. Check-Out is at 11AM. We do offer Early Check-Ins at 1PM for a fee of $50 if you are interested in arriving early. This can be selected when booking on our site or by calling/emailing the inn. Due to our apartment style rooms which require extended cleaning times, we do not offer late check outs.

HOW MANY PERSONS CAN BE ACCOMMODATED IN EACH STUDIO?

We have a maximum capacity 3 persons in our King Studio - Village View and 4 persons in our King Studio- Garden View. All other studios accommodate 2 persons only.

ARE YOU pet FRIENDLY?

Yes, two of our studios can accommodate dogs (sorry, no cats). The Deluxe King – Street View (1 dog max) and Deluxe King – Garden View (2 dogs max) are dog friendly. Our dog fee is $50/dog per night. ESAs are not exempt from fees. If traveling with a dog, select ‘Traveling With A Dog" when booking one of these two rooms here. Dogs are never permitted on furniture or in beds and may not be left unattended in apartments. Guests who arrive with unannounced pets will incur a $500 penalty fee.

DO YOU HAVE AIR CONDITIONING?

Each guest studio has a dedicated central air conditioning and heating specific to that room. There is no shared air between apartments for the safety of our guests and staff.

DO YOU OFFER DAILY HOUSEKEEPING?

All of our apartments are considered “housekeeping units.” That term denotes that daily housekeeping is not provided. Your room is fully equipped with a washer/dryer unit as well as any housekeeping supplies. If ever you need additional amenities – such as shampoo – during your stay, simply contact your personal concierge.

DO YOU OFFER PARKING?

We can accommodate one vehicle with each reservation. Parking is FREE when you book directly through our website or by calling 603-436-2778.

Parking is $29 per night for all reservations booked through third party channels (such as booking.com, Hotel Tonight, expedia.com, VRBO and AirBnB).

ARE YOU LOCATED ON THE WATER?

We are located about 100 yards from the waterfront, but are not directly on it. The quiet, less traveled northern beach of Great Island Common park is a 3 minute walk from the inn. Take Walbach St. to the end of Ocean Road.

do you have quiet hours?

For the peaceful enjoyment of all our guests, we have quiet hours (no loud TVs, amplified music, gatherings or unattended dogs) that must be observed daily between 9PM and 7AM. Guests must respect this policy or they may be asked to leave early.
