This is a really great place to stay with amazing service, really comfortable beds, and large tvs with streaming services. The ceilings are a little thin (could hear kids running around at points) but other than that this is a great spot for crashing!!

Wonderfully staffed, clean, and great location! Janet was super helpful to all of her guests, and a very welcoming, kind staff member. I will not hesitate to recommend Anchor In to friends and family.

The location was perfect if you want to be close to the downtown shops, food and the ferry. The view of the harbor was stunning and tranquil. The staff was attentive & friendly. The environment was relaxing with a mix of quests of families, couples, and friend groups .. My friend came in from Nantucket and this was the perfect meeting place. I was able to watch her ferry come and go from my private balcony.. I would definitely come back again and again! Cheers to our visit!! Thank you for the wonderful trip !

My family and I were in town last minute because my father had to be hospitalized at Cape Cod Hospital, which is across the street from the Anchor In. I cannot speak highly enough of the service and comfort at this stay; we were under incredibly stressful circumstances, and the kindness, flexibility, and warmth that Mary, Sandi, and the entire staff showed us was unparalleled. The rooms are beautiful, the location is great, and I can't thank them enough.

While the staff is lovely and the location is convenient, the overall condition of the hotel leaves much to be desired. This is not so much a reflection on the cleanliness of the facility, but the age. I stayed here with family over 2 decades ago and I would wager that the bathrooms, flooring, and a large portion of the furniture have not been updated since my last stay. If not for the newer television installed in the room, a photo of my stay from 2001 would be hard to distinguish from a current one. This hotel has location going for it, but it would be great to see some changes made to justify the cost of staying here. A view of the motorboats in the harbor can only take you so far.
