Have stayed at Lane's several times while visiting family in Liverpool, my home town. I have a fondness for the property as I know the Lane family. The new owners need to make some improvements to the interiors to refresh this historic landmark. Mattresses are very very soft. The room had no blankets. Wallpaper has been painted over, some is peeling, looks sad and old. Hallway carpet is old looking. As always, the restaurant has a very good dinner. The tea biscuits "made with love" were quite tough. The restaurant needs to be advertised!!! Don't let it go unnoticed! The parking lot needs the following: repaint the handicapped mark on the spots; make sure the old Christmas decoration is cleared away and that there are no bolts sticking out of the pavement, a real hazard; repair the handicapped ramp, it has slippery sections that are worn away. Really hope you take care of Lane's and make it a gem of the South Shore. Listen to your overworked server, she knows!

The room and building needed repairs. We couldn’t get the room warm enough. Not enough lighting or electrical outlets (needed to plug in four things). Had to unplug one of the lamps so we can charge the cell phone. The front desk closed 10 minutes after we checked in.

There was some debris on the carpet when I first walked in the door which didn’t give the best first impression, so I think they could do a better job of keeping the entrance way clean, but aside from that I enjoyed the place. Much more of a B&B feel and a great alternative to the no character Best Western. Bed was very comfy, room was huge. TV should be across from the bed rather than at the side as it starts to hurt your neck having to turn to the side. Staff were friendly. Would recommend if you want something with a bit more character and easy going vibe.

We checked into one room that was not cleaned and we moved to another room. Both rooms had issues including, mold, dust, cobwebs, paint peeling off walls, filthy microwave, dirty fridge, crumbs in the drawers, door had cracks and a hole which you could see the outside, pipes knocking and water running throughout the night made it difficult sleeping, dark and dreary room and the curtains had so many picks that they were no longer blackout curtains. request. Website said breakfast was available but once checked in we were told it was only available on the weekends. Convenient location and scenic views. Overall a very poor experience. This establishment has gone downhill over the years and requires updates and proper cleaning.

A gem in Liverpool!
We were in Liverpool to attend a concert at the Astor Theater. We enjoyed a delicious meal in the dining room at Lanes. The service was excellent despite the staffing level being inadequate. Our room was spacious. The room showed its age, but it was very clean.

Small older hotel. Area was on the inlet with the fishing ships nearby. Easy walking area to restaurants. Beautiful sunrise and sunset. For an older hotel it was good. Could use a bit of an update. Stairs outside to the upper level. Restaurant on site but we chose to go to a local restaurant. Quiet area.

The house is HUGE and old, built in the late 1700's! The rooms are beautiful amd huge, well ours was, we had the King Suite. The house is right on a lake so it is beautiful. There is definitely not much to do in the immediate area but we didn't mind. If you do stay, go down and have supper in their restaurant. 12 out of 10 recommend. The food was super delicious, and even though it seemed like they were short staffed the staff were phenomenal. Extremely kind, efficient and very friendly. This is about a 20 minute drive from Bridgewater so if you just want to relax and have a nice quiet weekend, Lane's is the place to stay!

The Inn is old and needs lots of upgrades. The staff is not available at many times. I had to go to the desk three times to get a staff member to check in. They seem very uninterested in giving service. Not sure if that is because I used your booking service . Would not recommend this Inn to anyone.
