Charming old hotel. Needs work, but is like an old home.

Good

Very clean, never a wait for the shared bathrooms. Great location!

Very quaint and original to early 1900’s Inns. The look was nostalgic and views were beautiful from a wrap-around front porch with plenty of seating. Breakfast time could be extended slightly and more variety of snacks. It could use mirrors in the room and more comfortable mattress. Overall we enjoyed the stay. The staff was very friendly and accommodating to our needs.

The property had a good location but it could have had Wi-Fi.

Glenn the Desk manager was Excellent

The Narraganset Inn was clean, friendly staff, and in a good location

The Inn is classic and very pretty on outside. Inside is very basic- we had a full bed, a little sitting area with a round table, and then a bathroom. The shower was extremely small- barely able to move. The windows were missing screens - so unable to open all but 2. There’s no AC in the rooms- extremely hot. If all windows were able to open it wouldn’t have been as bad. Staff was very nice. While they couldn’t give us a late check out they did allow us to use the upstairs shared bathroom to shower off when we returned from the beach at night. It’s not luxurious, but the price is one of the best on island. If you’re willing to not have an AC and no pool then you should stay here. The location is in New Harbor- not the center of town, but close to several really great restaurants. The Oar, Dead Eye Dicks, Shoals, Payne’s- breakfast.

See Glenn at front desk Made out stay perfect!

Very small rooms, no a/c.

We really enjoyed our stay. The building is historic and well kept. The staff was very friendly. The cleaning staff kepps everything very clean, including the shared bath. We had a fan in our room, which kept it comfortable. We really enjoyed our four day stay.

It was a cozy small inn, staff was super friendly! Slightly annoying the windows wouldn’t stay up with no air conditioning (some windows did have wooden props to hold them up but not all) overall I was able to book a room on the 4th of July for the day of and it was a nice quiet place and we could see fireworks right outside our window.

Narragansett Inn was very charming, comfortable and clean! It is in a beautiful location near the harbor, in a quiet neighborhood. I highly recommend.

Really don’t know where to start, but shame on me maybe for not reading the amenities and overall info more carefully. 1 or 2 shared toilets with the entire floor, and 1 shared shower. Whole place is very dated. How it has a 7.2 rating is perplexing. No A/C, walls and ceiling are beyond paper thin, beds just uncomfortable, staff just seems indifferent overall.

Stayed one night … might be alright if you’re eighteen, but not for me. Compare it to the bunk house in Yellowstone.

Quiet, quaint property with basic amenities on block island. The staff were welcoming and the room was basic but clean and comfortable. Location has beautiful pond views and is a short 1.2 mi bike ride from the beach and downtown

Gorgeous location, friendly staff! Highly recommend staying here.

My wife and I travel a lot and are generally not picky. But this was disappointing. As my wife told the front desk employee, we paid a luxury price for a youth hostel experience. The walls are paper thin (thanks, dude coughing two feet away from our head across the wall all night), the entire house is super noisy (stairs, doors, etc.), the quiet hours are not enforced (so many loud drunk people coming in at 1-2 am), the bathroom on the 2nd floor was shared by 4-5 rooms and was nasty -- the shower especially, my wife had no hot water for her shower in the early evening (!!), the room was very small and the bed surely not a queen as advertised, no AC, and just a rundown joint in general. To top it off, when I reported that the ONLY outlet in the room didn’t work, she was like, oh, that always happens, here I can fix it. And came up, pulled the bed from the wall, and wiggled the adapter until the lights came on. I was like: uh, I’m an electrician, and that is a super fire hazard! She shrugged, but I insisted she get an extension cord so we could plug in to a safe outlet. I can't believe we paid over $300 per night for this hole. The only positives are: location and access to other New Harbor establishments; and the $15 buffet you have access to 1.5 miles away at the 1661 Inn (which, by the way, feels much more like a "real" hotel -- actually a nice place to stay and eat). I’d look elsewhere unless you like youth hostels and fire hazards.

Great location, the staff was great, overall very convenient and accommodating. The rooms are very basic but exactly what you need. Will definitely be staying here again!

It reminds me of my own house

Based on some of the other reviews of this property, I would say if you're not familiar with old homes or you're a "fault finder" by nature, then this probably isn't the hotel for you. However, if you're a glass-half-full kind of person, then I think for the price, this is one of the best values on the island. Yes, most rooms have to share a bathroom but we never once encountered a delay in our schedule because of having to wait, etc. - it simply didn't happen. And yes, the bathrooms are original with some tile repair that wasn't the best in the world, but the water flows, the soaps and shampoos smell wonderful, and if you look at the news - it's light years better off than the people in Jackson Mississippi's water supply right now. The perfect spot in the early afternoon or late evening is on the expansive front porch, where there is always a great view and a nice breeze. The staff are very friendly and accommodating. To sum up this review, if you want AC and perfection, pay $1,000 a night and stay elsewhere. If you want the very best you can buy for your dollar and can pretend you're living at the turn of the 20th century, then I think you'll be pleased with choice. We survived - and thrived - for a whole week here.

The outside seating area is beautiful and you can hear the live music at night and sit by the water to listen.

Just very old and over priced , needs to be updated

The staff and view at this property are absolutely wonderful. The property is old but clean. We found it charming. The muffins and coffee in the morning are delicious and there are a couple of places to get a bite to eat next door. It is an easy mile walk into the town. We will stay here again. Please remember there is no air-conditioning but the screened window opens and they provided a fan. The view in beautiful. The bathroom was shared with others on the floor and was clean with fresh towels.

Great staff

Like: fabulous water view, great rocking chairs on veranda, staff were happy and helpful, fluffy towels, and true sense of a vacation spot from days gone by. Less preferred: definitely "charming" translate needs some upgrades..old furnishings could berepainted or replaced. Lack of mirrors. Better lit walkways in back of bldg. All in all I would happilyreturn

Loved the history of the building, the lovely hard wood floors and doors, friendly day staff, great coffee, and a wonderful view

Nice staff. Very clean.

The views are beautiful. Close to places to eat.

Great location and easy access

Staff was amazing! Friendly and helpful staff made us feel right at home and welcome! Homemade muffins were a delicious surprise! Will definitely be back!
