The cutest inn. The room was clean and cosy. Staff was great- Tyler the bartender was GREAT, he was friendly, offered amazing service, and was knowledgeable about the area when we had questions. I will make this recommendation for travelers- if you are arriving before 11am and want to come in early to either leave your bags or check in, just contact the property beforehand to let them know. Since it is an inn vs. a large hotel they are not staffed round the clock so you can’t go in at any hour without the door code (which for security services is actually great). I would recommend and we’d stay there again.

I’ve waited to write this and don’t know where to start. We walked into a room with no duvet cover, just a dirty insert, a piece of sew-in weave hair on the ground, missing drinks from the fridge, and a very moldy shower curtain. We let them know but it was never remedied. Not good. They offered to buy us dinner but were so understaffed, and using paper tickets, so we got tired and went elsewhere. Then came screaming seagulls being fed outside DAILY at 5 am, then the 4 am fire alarm that evacuated us all night 2, but was never explained. They also didn’t tell us that you have to press a tiny black dot to lock your room, so it was open the entire time. Safe! The staff was nice but they come in too late and they overbook for the staff they do have. All hospitality went out the window! Cups upstairs were visibly dirty, they only offer cheap Keurig coffee, and it was just a huge let down for us. If you have allergies, whoever renovated this place is inexperienced. There’s cracked grout and uneven tile all through the shower, and the shower head sprays directly onto improperly sealed original windows. Talk about a mold bomb lurking behind those walls. It was NOT a five-star experience, which was my reason for moving us here, but we should’ve stayed at the Hawthorne. With more staff and attention to detail, this could’ve been nice. I was also charged for the missing drinks, and overcharged by $100 in taxes. They got it back to me, but it took several calls. Don’t expect high-end!

The property itself was very cute- your typical vintage Inn with a tavern underneath. Upkept nicely and staff was great- the only thing I would note is that it was very cold in the attic suite we stayed in. Staff advised the heat wasn't on yet for winter and tried to assist but the thermostat in my room was broken. Other than that, our stay was comfortable :)

Great place to stay. Very nice and unique. Great food in restaurant. We had the haddock. It would have been nice to have a mirror in the bedroom and small wastebasket. The window was open to get some fresh air inside but extremely noisy all night! 5:12 am there was a delivery to the Inn. Extremely loud truck.

I would say this comes close to being one of my favorite hotel stays ever. The room was clean, modern, welcoming, and cozy. The amenities were great- the breakfast provided in the morning by the coffee bar was awesome! Staff was extremely friendly. The whole building itself was very charming. I have already recommended to friends and family who are thinking of visiting this area. It was a quick drive to Salem. I loved it here. Thank you for a fantastic stay!

Very clean and comfortable room; this is no chain that tries to lipstick a pig - this is a gorgeous and clean little mom and pop. Places like this are a true gem. Staff was incredibly friendly. Probably the cleanest hotel I've ever stayed in; felt like home. Excellent dining on-site, no need to even leave. Plenty of options close by if you do however. Worth it.

Our stay at the Bell Inn and Tavern was terrible. We booked our room nearly 4 months in advance, as we were scheduled for an important event nearby. Since we had an early call time the next day, we had planned on spending time in the Bell Inn’s Cellar the evening before our event. We were looking forward to it. None of that happened. Upon checking in we were informed that a wedding reception would be taking place in the Cellar that night and it would be unavailable. We had a quick lunch at the bar, only to find the staff extremely stressed with wedding preparations, and thus bordering on hostile. We left for several hours. When we returned back to the hotel after dinner at 9:25 pm, we were informed that last call at the bar was at 9:30 pm. As a result, we ended up back in our room (204) by 10pm, only to find that our room was directly above the Cellar and its patio. Consequently, there were dozens of loud drunken people celebrating less than 10 feet from our window. When we went downstairs to see if we could be moved to another room, we were told it wasn’t possible. In fact, other than a disingenuous “apology”, nothing was possible to improve the situation. We were offered nothing. We were told that they would try to quiet people down, but obviously that didn’t last because people celebrating at a wedding reception are there to have a good time. In the end, we spent hours stuck in an incredibly loud room, as uninvited and involuntary participants in someone else’s wed
