The Northport Inn

Hotel for people who don’t go to bed before 11 or 12. Rooms were extremely noisy. Band downstairs until 9:30, (at least on Sat), could hear TV in next room as clear as if it were in our room. Room small but clean, and if you like bar soap for your face or lotion for your body, bring your own. Bed sagged towards middle. Great location. No staff available. Would not stay there again.

The Northport Inn is an interesting property. From what we read, these are new owners. It is clear they are investing in the hotel, with a beautiful lobby area. There are only nine rooms, all on the second floor; accessible by elevator and by a staircase. The rooms themselves, however, are a different story. There is no front desk; you are sent a code via email to unlock your room. If you code doesn't work - like ours didn't - you have to call a phone number and get a new code. This worked fine but was an unsettling experience. Our room, number 3, was an ADA-accessible room with a huge bathroom. The rest of the room was a nice large size, as well. But it was the details in which the Northport Inn fell short: ＞ The in-room refrigerator was ancient and visibly beat up. ＞ The in-room coffee maker didn't work. ＞ Instead of an in-room microwave, there is a microwave on a cart in the hallway, presumably for all guests to share. ＞ The smart TV screen was laughably small. ＞ The "table for four" mentioned on the website had just two chairs. The table itself was very tiny; if there had been four chairs, they probably wouldn't all fit. ＞ The couch/sleeper was not comfortable or steady. ＞ All of the furniture, shelves, etc., appeared to be rehomed from IKEA. Further, some pieces of furniture shown on the website - a recliner-type chair and a coffee table - were missing from room 203. The Northport Inn clearly has potential but it's not yet the "luxurious, sophisticated inn" it professes to be on its website.
