Pleasant stay for the price. We were there for 2 nights on the second floor- very noisy (street noise) through the night. Our room was not cleaned on the first night so we had to ask for clean towels. We did not have breakfast as there was limited selection but found good options close by.

We stayed at the New Bedford Hotel in order to meet our daughter at the ferry. It was a very easy stay, super comfortable and convenient to restaurants and the wonderful, world-class Whaling Museum.

Quaint Hotel
I am only giving this hotel 3 stars, in comparing it to other hotels across the US and more. However, that being said, this was a perfectly fine hotel in this very small town. Not a lot going on in this town so you can't expect a super elegant hotel. But for our purpose (a nearby wedding), it was fine. Room and bathroom are very small. Bed was comfy but very soft. Decor was done to be stylish in an industrial type of way, but the furniture and toiletries were pretty low end. Feel that it was overpriced for what you got. Staff was super friendly and very efficient. Continental breakfast was included but we never ate it.

Restaurant and wait staff were fun, and we enjoyed our dinner appetizer there. When we returned to our room later that night, someone else had been assigned the room.
