We stayed on the second floor corner room with queen size bed. Ocean view. There was no air conditioning but didn't need one because the ocean breeze came right thru the windows and there was an overhead fan above the bed. Very clean and up to date furniture More

Have stayed here the past 2 Taste of Block Island weekends. We get the room with the ocean view and no a/c. The room is clean, the inn is close to everything, the restaurant downstairs has good food and friendly staff. Have no complaints. In fact, have booked it again for this coming spring! Block Island tends to be expensive,... More

After reading some other reviews i was a little nervous but it turned out to be a perfect place for us. We stayed in room 10 on the third floor. We got our excercise climbing the stairs. The room was clean and up to date with an ac. No detectable noise from the bar or the street. Check in and... More

This inn is located over a bar on the main street. There is no lobby - you check in at an hotel up the street. Most importantly, it has no parking. If you bring your car, you will have to park it on the street, and move it every two hours during the day. Parking is so crowded in town... More

Stayed there so we could be located central to beaches and etc...Room was dated,slanted floors, tiny bathroom and musty smell. Big bucks for the room. We stayed there August of 2010. When weather turned we felt traped in a musty cage. Left a day early and was glad to be out of that room. Too much for the condition. Good... More

I stayed with my family at the Water Street Inn this summer and had what can only be described as an awful experience. I believe I recall when this hotel had its own check in desk, but now shadily it is lumped in with the harbor side down the street. First off the rooms are insanely expensive for the quality... More

The good: the rooms are a little sparse but we didn't really plan on spending a lot of time in it so no big deal. As long as you aren't in one of the front rooms, you have a window a/c unit which keeps you cool during the hot summer days. It looks like they make at least a minimal... More

Loved the location and the view of the harbor. Great bar and restaurant on 1st floor. Walked to everything. Open windows offered the great ocene breeze and the late night island banter and laughter of which we we part! Can't wait to get back Michael & Ginny More
