The picture shown is not Inn By the Harbor, but their sister property across the street, however, Inn By the Harbor has a much nicer courtyard overlooking the garden and pool whereas the property shown here overlooks the parking lot. Room was somewhat dated but very comfortable bedding and double queen room even has a kitchenette! We enjoyed the wine and cheese served in the lobby for happy hour and had a nice walk to State Street for dinner and walk down to the harbor in the morning. Overall, a lovely stay.
