Terrible management with terrible owners. The rooms seemed decent, but after losing a very close loved one, they were very rude to my family and stole our money from us. I've never met more unprofessional people. The manager responded to us accusing us of lying. Don't give them your business if you enjoy being treated like a decent human being because I can assure you, if you have a problem, they will treat you like absolute garbage.

I recently stayed at the Inn for a private birthday party. I first want to say that the Inn is a beautiful place to stay. Close to everything and the view is beautiful. This is about one particular person Lynda. She was the rudest, nasty person i have ever met. I have never been spoken to like that ever. I know we did break some of the rules, but there is definately a better way to go about it, if she had been a little bit nicer about it , it would have had alot better results. Then to wake up in the morning with a letter under my door telling me i was rude! I did not receive a welcome guide with

Stayed at the Inn this past weekend. Attended a friends birthday party & had a room with 2 queen beds. At around midnight, the manager Lynda Ferguson, just walked in our room to tell us to be quiet & told us only 2 guest are allowed to stay in the room & if we didn't leave she's was going to call the police. So 1 of my friends & I had her leave in our pjs, she wouldn't even let us change into our cloths. She walked us to the door like we were children. She's was not friendly & she was rude from the time we got there & she just got worse through out

We've stayed here annually for years. Great location. This year was not a good experience.
Our request to amend our original reservation from 8 nights to 6 (due to 2 covid related travel change issues) was denied. Zero flexibility to a NO CHANGES WITHIN 30 DAYS policy despite the pandemic. We hadn't even asked for a refund - just a credit towards a future stay but were flatly refused. So we ended up having to pay for 2 nights (plus service fee) for an empty room which we could not use.
Housekeeping services were not provided unless you specifically requested them every day. By noon

The floors are very thin and building is old. You can hear the people walking or doing any activity above you. It's not just a little noise from the guests walking, it's like they are in your ear.
We did not sleep a wink.
Thankfully Karen was extremely helpful and was able to move us to the 3rd floor on our final night.
Please do not stay on the 2nd floor.

The inn was very pretty, great location, beautiful view, clean, quaint and great service. However, the BED was so so tiny and uncomfortable that we will not be staying here again unless they get new mattresses. The “queen bed” was a full size - no bigger. My husband and I could NOT sleep comfortably. The mattress was so hard that I woke up with back pain every morning. Unfortunately it’s the only place to stay near our family so we couldn’t find other accommodations. It’s a shame because the cost was so high for the room and you don’t get what you pay for. Very

We stayed at the Inn in September - I hadn't been there since it was the Clipper Ship and I have to say it has been updated very nicely! I think the harbor really benefits from having such a lovely hotel right there. We walked to the lighthouse (my favorite place) each morning - just the perfect way to start the day. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful about what to do in town - what was open and closed due to Covid etc.

Stayed here for one night and I wish I could have stayed longer. The place was clean and the bed was comfy. They had a descent indoor pool, wasn't heated but it was still nice. All the staff was friendly and always there if you needed something. Beautiful view from all of the rooms! I would recommend staying here and I would come back.

This was a last minute choice for stay in between Hyatt Regency Cambridge and Lamb and Lion Inn Barnstable. We had planned on avoiding the coast because of all of the hurricanes, but the weather turned so nice, 85 degrees and sunny. This Inn had excellent reviews and lived up to all of them. They have no elevator and too many stairs are out, but the first floor rooms were wonderfully decorated, comfortable, and had great view of the harbor. They no longer run a pub because it was too disturbing for the guests. However, the pubs and restaurants are really close and everything is strolling distance

We had stayed there last year for a mother /daughter weekend . We liked it because it was close to my son in Marshfield and the village so close.
We made reservations a few months back for this past weekend 5/4 through 5/7
We arrived and went to the room so far everything was nice until we used the toilet
It was not seated in the floor properly. We called the desk as we were on the road to visit my son. We explained the situation and the lady said she would have maintenance go and look at it would we be in room ? We said no we were out and did not know what tine we would be back . She said well

I booked three rooms at The Inn at Scituate Harbor for the night of my wedding online through Expedia. I called a day later to book one of the rooms for the night before my wedding as well. However, the manager told me that they could not accommodate that request, not because they were full, but because I would need to book the room for two more nights, not just one. So the three rooms I booked already don't carry any weight? They don't really care about your business, I would look somewhere else if I were you.

The Inn At Scituate Harbor is a comfortable place to stay in Scituate which is close to the harbor. I was there for my uncle's funeral on a cold March weekend. The views are amazing and the price is affordable. My only small complaint is the heat in our room was not on so it took a little while to heat up. Also the blankets for the winter could be a little warmer. We asked for more blankets from the front desk which helped. But definitely a great value.

Extremely disappointing to stay to say the least. Rooms were not ready on time, front desk staff was unapologetic about this fact, and were even arrogant when we needed to simply change in the rooms we paid for well after we received our room keys. If you have any other local options, choose them first. It would be a struggle to find a more rude group of people in any business.

If you enjoy small inns with friendly staff and clean rooms, you will like this inn. located a very short walk from the town shops, with a restaurant attached the location is ideal. our room looked out over the harbor. be for warned, Ma law does not allow you to bring your own alcohol to your room if the establishment holds a liquor license. the baker of the continental breakfast was late so we ended up searching yelp for a breakfast but fresh coffee was available when I went down at 6am and fresh fruit and cereal came out at 7.

Great spot!! Very convenient location. Right in the center of town across from the harbor. Welcoming lobby with a nice small town feel. Not at all like a B&B but not like a chain hotel either. The people that work there are very friendly and accommodating. The corner room we got was huge with a comfy Cal King bed. There was nothing I would change about this place. One of the owners Karen mentioned that during the busy seasons which are spring through early fall the place books up pretty quick. Scituate is really a picturesque little town worth visiting.

If you're visiting Scituate and need a place to stay, your options are pretty limited. There are a couple B&B's but the Inn is the only hotel in town. For me, it's a great option!
The views are amazing, the staff is incredibly friendly and the rooms are fine. At $150-170/night, I'm not expecting The Ritz! I expect comfortable beds and clean rooms and they exceed my expectations.
The Inn has been around for years but the new owners have done a great job with their updates. We try to visit for a few days each summer and every year, it's better than the last.

I stayed here recently, and the rooms are just ok. The carpeting is a little old and the decor is a little drab, but it was clean. I would probably give them an average two to three stars if I hadn't had such a horrible experience in the downstairs bar area. I witnessed the bartender humiliating the wait staff in front of customers, and the manager, "Linda", did nothing about the situation. They were understaffed that evening, and the young waitress was getting berated for what was clearly a poor management issue. It was really uncomfortable to watch the young girl being verbally

I checked in to the Inn at Scituate Harbor after a long weekend at a friend's wedding. The top floor room had a gorgeous view, the room was cute, and the whole experience was a peaceful retreat. I went downstairs to grab some food and the bartender was really friendly. Overall, it was a fabulous vacation from my vacation!

I booked a room here just before it reopened so I wasn't sure what to expect since there are no reviews. It's a little pricey if on a budget, but compared to other places in summer towns with similar types of locations, it's about the same and there was no minimum night stay.
The rooms aren't fancy; standard hotel decor, not renovated. However, everything was clean, the bed was comfortable with new bedding, a fridge and iPod alarm clock. The bathrooms are outdated, but they do give you Crabtree and Evelyn toiletries.
