The hotel is in downtown New Bedford, a short walk to the harbor. Our room was pleasant with a high ceiling and large windows. We had service issues with the hotel. Our first room didn't have much toilet paper and no extra roll. The TV was broken. We asked to switch rooms and were sent to an already occupied room. The third room was fine. The hotel bar was closed. I think the hotel had staffing issues the day we were there.

We had a very nice trip to New Bedford and this hotel was in a perfect location to downtown and the ferry to the islands. Hotel was very nice, beds large and soft, clean room. Nice staff even after an error with Expedia, and it all worked out. We recommend NB Harbor Hotel, have a nice stay in a cool city.

This is not a fancy hotel, but it has a cool vibe. The decor is not the usual bland, tan, industrial wallcovering and carpeting. It's clean and quiet, in the middle of a town I quite like: safe, walkable, easy parking. Not a tourist town, though. Shops and restaurants close early.

The front desk staff were very friendly and helpful. The room was clean and had adequate amenities. The view was nice from the 4th floor. There were some issues with the keyless entry to the room, but it was corrected both times with grace. Breakfast was standard continental with a microwave and toaster. I would recommend this hotel.

No parking onsite.Street parking in somewhat unsafe areas. Three stays in different rooms with TVs not working. One room had coffee/tea and cups with no machine to make a cup. Calls to front desk unanswered 8pm and when going to front desk staff yelled at me they were eating dinner.

The desk clerk reacted very efficiently and quickly when we walked into a room that ha not been cleaned. We're we given an upgrade to another corner room. She made sure everything was fine when she subsequently saw us.
