This classic guesthouse, formerly known as the Overlook Hotel, has been in the same family for generations. The younger generation has taken over and given the inn a stylish face-lift. The inn is located in a quiet neighborhood a short walk from the center of town. It is perched on a hill, so rooms on the third floor have distant harbor views. Wraparound porches surround the inn and serve as the communal area for enjoying the sunshine or meeting fellow guests. Inn rooms are on the small side but smartly decorated with antique photos in sophisticated frames. It's a minimalist look but it works. Some of the more deluxe rooms have private balconies. All rooms have extras like robes; beds are made with Frette linens and goose-down comforters. Breakfast, which features hot delicacies like quiches and frittatas, is served with great hospitality on the ample front porch. The entire inn property is covered by a wireless Internet service.
