We are traveling to Block Island at the end of August and plan to stay at the Old Bakery Inn. Does anyone have experience staying there? We have 2 children under 10, and like the convenience of a kitchenette this provides. Just a little nervous because I haven%26#39;t seen any reviews...Thanks for any info. about the Old Bakery Inn, or in general any info. about Block Island!
Old Bakery Inn feedback?
Block Island is a special place. Be sure to venture away from the harbor area, and don%26#39;t miss Monhegan Bluffs.
Old Bakery Inn feedback?It%26#39;s certainly centrally located, though that block gets a little raucous at night ... you%26#39;re right across from the ferry dock and on the busiest main street of Town. On a quiet island, it%26#39;s the least quiet place you can get - on the other hand you%26#39;re just a stumble from what restaurants and shopping are on offer.
Have you considered the efficiency apartments at the Gables? They%26#39;re around the corner, which is a little bit quieter, and I think they also have a kitchenette.
Thanks so much for the reply. Do you have contact info. for the Gables apartments? Is it part of the Gables Inn?
Yes. You have to call 466-2213 and just keep calling, every few hours, until someone picks up. The answering machine is useless, and they don%26#39;t seem to deal with email either.
Thank you for your help!
We just stayed at the Old Bakery.
Pros: Great location; access to a beautiful balcony overlooking the harbour.
Cons:
Noisy. No air-conditioning, but there are fans. Don%26#39;t get too excited about the kitchenette. It consists of a tiny refrigerator, with a non-defrosted tinier freezer compartment and a microwave. There is only a sink in the bathroom, so its not like you can cook and clean dishes.
Thanks so much for sharing your experience. Would you stay there again? Was it clean? We%26#39;re staying the last week in August, so we%26#39;re hoping it might be a little quieter by then?
It was very clean. I would stay there again. The reason we chose this location was because it was pet friendly.
Have a great trip.
Thanks so much!
