Frommer's Review
This well-restored, waterside Georgian town-house-turned-B&B is a calming place. It's got a kind of low-key luxury, as demonstrated in the well-chosen antiques and the plush, Egyptian cotton towels and bathrobes. Prices are a bit high for what you get, but the rooms and the views are lovely. Rooms at the front of the house overlook the sailboat-dotted harbor, and the views get significantly better the higher you go. The largest (and priciest) room is the Postmaster's Suite, with a lovely sitting room and a fireplace. Tip: Prices drop nearly by half in the off season.

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
