warm and cozy

The location was an easy walk to and from the ferry for me, and I found the room cozy and well equipped. It was a blustery March day and I was happy for the excellent baseboard heating as well.

The Martin house was clean and the room was spacious and well decorated. I particularly liked the walk-in shower. Unfortunately, the room I chose did not have a television (but it is quite possible that others on the property do have one). I was a bit dissapointed in the breakfast. It was more of a continental breakfast and the pastry the second day was a bit stale. Other than that, my stay was enjoyable.

Nice property overall

Great location and property. Quaint room and we loved sitting on the porch and in the yard. We’d definitely stay again. The only complaints are minor -the manager seemed grumpy and obtuse and the complimentary breakfast was low budget. Fewer higher quality ingredients would be better than a wide variety of breakfast junk food.

Liked: Cleanliness
I had the smallest room in the property, which was fine since it was the least expensive and that’s what I wanted, but the single bed mattress was cur in such a way that I rolled out of the bed two times onto the floor. And there was no television. Even a small TV would have at least been appreciated. Had we had bad weather or I didn’t feel well. Other than my iPhone, I had no way to know what was going on in the world nor the forecasted weather. This was a great inconvenience. Television sets are so inexpensive now , I wish kind of amazed. I was going to take the ferry across to Cape Cod and I had no idea what weather to expect.

Hotel was nice, but not worth the money. They advertise that they have a widows walk on the roof, in reality it’s been closed for years. The photographs show many lush gardens, they have not been kept to that level. There’s nothing really wrong with the hotel, but it’s not worth the money they’re charging. For that price point you would be much better off at 21 Broad Street.

Not Great

We chose the Martian House over other similar properties because it was acquired by the Greydon House. The property has been refurbished but that is where it ends. Rooms are damp, bathroom so small that the door must be opened to use the toilet (in a larger sized room!), disgusting beach chairs that were rusting, a strange breakfast (pop tarts and various boxed baked goods), and a virtually MIA inn keeper that we never saw. Be warned that the stairs from the street to the front door and the internal staircases are extremely steep, plus you will be carrying your own bags up/down (no staff on property other than housekeeping who were so lovely!).
