Our door to the hallway had a big gap under it. I felt like anyone in the hall could hear us talking. No screen on a window left us sweltering all night. Other window had road noise. Great shower pressure! Mattress horrible. Seaview suite was a room with a bathroom and parking lot/roof view. Great breakfast.

This is a very unique experience- blending hotel and bed and breakfast. Private rooms are all classically furnished- private key pad codes so safe with private en suite bathrooms. The mentos on site and available if needed. Great walking trail right behind the parking lot - so we used that a lot. Great trip and nice restaurants on Main Street in Falmouth.
