Shabby chic
Pros:

Shabby chic property with the one of the beg views on the island. Very old house covered into a hotel with steep stairs and paper thin walls. So would recommend depending on the price you have to pay. Don’t expect high end.

Cons:

Thin walls, untrained staff, bar closed on weekend in June. Very small room
But cozy.

Pros:

No employee at hotel from early evening til morning. All doors to very public street unlocked all night. Felt unsafe, my husband agreed. Door kept cracked open to creepy basement with light on. Very little lighting otherwise. Air stuffy, told at first not to open windows. Later sent email that ‘split’ air system does not heat, use base board, turn knob, did so, smelt like burning dust, so shut right off. Slept in clothes per the above. Had to request refund on amenities charge added that night, did receive refund readily upon request as there was no food, no bar, no pool, bad tv, not many lights, no safety. All that being said, bed was comfortable, bathroom large and clean, room small, location good with excellent view of sunrise and interesting retro lobby.

Pros:

Front desk servicewas great. The location was convenient and we liked hanging out back and enjoying the water view. It’s a very, very old building that desperately needs updating. They painted swipes up the walls and added tons of surfboards as their decor (a shortcut to actually updating) The light fixtures are lovely and bohemian and the bathroom was updated but the shower is so small I can’t turn around (5’4”). The room was tiny. The rooms were pricey. Someone else might like it but it was not my cup of tea.

Pros:

If you are looking for a hotel that is on a beach, this is good place to stay. If you are looking for a quiet stay, this is not your place. This is a old wooden structure with no carpet in rooms or hallway. Noise transmission was much higher than most hotels. Our room was much smaller than expected and although we had an ocean view, the windows had labels that said “ enjoy the view but keep windows closed “. The windows had counterweights removed so they wouldn’t stay open. Disappointing to not be able to open ocean view windows and hear waves lapping on the shore.

The Perfect New England Fall Beach Fix
Pros:

Such a lovely place to stay. I stayed in a queen sea view corner room with 3 amazing windows overlooking the crashing waves. Had a windy day or two to enjoy the sweet and comfy indoor common spaces too. The outdoor areas are amazing and just a walk down the steps for long walks on the beach. Walk to all the best restaurants (ones that are still open, a lot close this time of year but still plenty to choose from) highly recommend dinner at Winfields, the bar at The Main (Spring House) and Kimberly’s, and lunch at The Mohegan. The Block Island Beach House is the Perfect New England Fall Beach Fix!
