Wonderful

This place needs a lot of help. It wasn't cleaned properly. The living room rug was dirty and not vacuumed. Things were breaking and generally just very old. I like quaint and classic, but this was just not that. Most of all the basement door was unlocked and someone could easily get in. I had to prop up a broken chair underneath the door knob to feel safe. It appears the lock was broken from the outside. The refrigerator was very noisy. The place has potential but you need to pay attention to details. The location is great.

Great location
We loved being able to walk to the downtown area. We also loved that we were close enough to walk over the footbridge. Mama D’S which is part of the property is a great place for breakfast.
It was just the perfect size for 2 people. Very clean and perfect location

Reviewer Comments:
Very cozy and cute small apartment with antique touches. Location is central and easy walking to restaurants and activities. Bedroom is upstairs via steep and shallow stairs. Not a problem for us but a consideration for anyone with mobility issues. Overall we were very happy with our stay and would definitely stay here again.

We were so happy with our stay! The property was very well taken care of and perfect for a small family or group. It’s also in a great location within walking distance to all the shops and restaurants and right across the street to the water! We would definitely stay there again.
This is a cute place right in the village. Easy walk across the footbridge to the heart of town. Accommodations are comfortable. And, we highly recommend Mama D’s for breakfast!

Loved the location! Short walk to downtown with plenty of shops and restaurants along the way. Breakfast steps from the door! Snug Harbor met our need and more. We found it clean, cozy, and had enough space for our toddler.

Love this place!
What a wonderful place to stay in Boothbay Harbor! The location is perfect. Everything is within walking distance, yet it is very quiet and comfotable. Plenty of room for my wife and me and the antique nautical treasures throughout the apartment helped set the tone and mood for our stay. Will definitely return.

Boothbay Opera Week-End
We stayed in this lovely apartment while in Boothbay to go to concert at the Opera House. Unit is very clean and well equipped. Excellent location so you can walk to everywhere in town. Great restaurant next door for breakfast if you want a treat.
