Check in was great, the gentleman at the desk very knowledgeable of the area and happy to provide us with some tips. While the room was clean and cute, this was the last night of our honeymoon and the room was unimpressive being its basically on the street with heavy traffic.

The room was clean and nice. Nothing super opulent, but nice. The best part about the Whalers Inn is its proximity to town. We walked to dinner every night from the hotel and the seaport and aquarium were a very short drive away.
