Guest reviews

What guests think

AI-generated summary based on recent guest reviews

At The Thistle Inn, guests appreciate the walkable Boothbay Harbor location and historic charm, but repeatedly note steep, narrow stairs with no elevator and a self-service model with little on-site staff or routine housekeeping.

The room was attractive, spacious, and easy to get into with the room codes. It was also close enough to downtown to walk to many places. The room heater would be my only criticism. It would come on to the desired temperature and shut off once it was reached. The room would then get very cold before it clicked back on and so it was up and down for the entire stay. At times it was distracting.

This trip would have been perfect with the following: 1. lighting at the parking across the street, especially for late arrivals 2. Bottled water 3. Napkins or paper towels 4. Plasticware 5. Cookware for microwave - I left a dish for heating there for the next guest 6. Better bandwidth- the TV did not really work when other guest were there or the restaurant was in operation. No one likes to watch TV the is constantly spinning 7. A WiFi connection Other than these things it was nice, comfortable and quaint.

Loved the quaintness of the rooms, though the stairs to the rooms were steep and treads were short. The food at the restaurant was really good.
