What guests think

At Inn on the Square, guests consistently praise the walkable location near downtown Falmouth, ferry links and bike path, the friendly staff, and the handy indoor pool, making it a convenient base for short visits to the Cape.

Rooms are generally comfortable, though many describe dated décor, thin walls, and occasional maintenance issues like tricky doors or inconsistent water pressure. Cleanliness is often noted positively, yet reviews also cite musty smells and inconsistent housekeeping or delayed room readiness. Parking is convenient, but the lack of elevators in some buildings, amenity fees, and an on-site restaurant that serves breakfast only are common drawbacks. Expect a convenient, midrange stay with trade-offs between comfort and dated features.

Room wasnt ready until after 5 pm. Then was charged extra fee for amenities which I was advised at the desk but I got the room through Expedia. I asked for a discount for the inconvenience of the room not being ready but was advised they could not do that due to booking through a third party. I asked that they not charge me the extra amenities fee for the inconvenience and was advised thay also could not do that. Upon checking in there was several other groups of people also waiting for their rooms which were not ready. There also is no elevators in the building.

Had a nice time at Inn on the Square! Friendly staff. Our room was with a lovely view of the town and near the Inn swimming pool. Lots of free parking. Very convenient location being right next to a Diner, shuttle to ferry to Martha's Vineyard (where we visited for a day) and near the town center so we could explore nice restaurants, stores and a playground with the kids.

I have been staying at Inn on the Square consecutively for the last 6 years on business trips to the Cape. The property including rooms are very dated. This is the second year that I stayed in the cottages building. The room was clean, but very outdated, bathroom could be refreshened, wallpaper missing, the room was very musty, I had to open the windows and run the air unit to refresh the room. I suffer from terrible allergies, and the moment I walked in the stale musty air hit me. The beds are very comfortable. I had an issue with my television, but the front desk manager came over at 9:30pm to try and fix it and had engineering over in the morning to fix it, as promised. I always enjoyed staying here for the convenience to the ferry to Martha's Vineyard and upper cape where I have business meetings. It is very convenient to down town for restaurants and town hall where I need to get too. This was always a great property, but I may consider alternate accommodations when I return.

The property has more potential and could be a bit more upscale. There was an unpleasant odor in the room, probably from moisture being on Cape Cod. The tub has soap scum that looked really dingy and unpleasant. I did not shower because of this. Again, this property has potential to be much more desirable.

Dear Newport Hotel Group, I hope this message finds you well. I recently stayed at Inn on the Square in Falmouth, MA and wanted to share some feedback about my experience. While the location was pleasant, there were several aspects of the stay that were disappointing and significantly impacted my comfort: 1. Excessively Thin Walls: Noise from adjacent rooms and the hallway was very noticeable, making it difficult to relax or sleep peacefully. 2. Uncomfortable Bedding: The pillows provided were extremely flat, offering little to no support and contributing to an uncomfortable night’s rest. 3. Room Location and Inconvenience: The room was located directly near the main entrance and lobby, which met us with unpleasant scents of food from Percy’s Breakfast and lingering scents throughout the evening. I chose Inn on the Square expecting a restful and quality experience, and unfortunately, these issues made the stay less enjoyable than anticipated. I hope you’ll consider addressing these concerns to improve the experience for future guests. Thank you for your attention to this matter. Best, Maximilian A. Welz

We stayed off season 12/25 and 12/26. I read that the property was noisy but we found the room very quiet maybe because there were few guests. Room was clean and comfortable, but a basic hotel room. Shower water pressure was poor. We paid $125 per night including taxes and fees and were very satisfied at that price. Staff was polite and competent. Very easy to walk into town. Breakfast in the restaurant was good although Crabapples a short drive away was better.

The property is very dated. The floor was very squeaky and you could hear everything that's going on in the rooms next to you because the walls are very thin. For 2 days out of 4 that we stayed, we were woken up by the workers outside banging on the walls. Pool is kind of useless without the sauna.Room service was not great since we had to call the front desk for items that room service forgot to replace or didn't replace on purpose.

I would not stay at property again. Staff were unpleasant and unprofessional. Several people checking in had problems with staff and had to wait a long time to get a room. A bed was put in my room which made the room unsafe to stay because the bed blocked the door. We had to climb over the person sleeping in the bed to go to the bathroom. The worse stay I have ever had in forty years of staying in hotels. I was assured and reassured that the extra bed would fit comfortably in the room. When I called several days ahead to request an extra bed I was told that it was not a problem. If I had known the true set up I would have stayed elsewhere. The staff and the morning manager were not helpful. The manager was incompetent and sarcastic. This was a terrible stay for my three grandchildren. Never again, I should have stayed at the nearby Palmer Inn.

This inn is in a great area in Falmouth. Easy to walk to downtown for meals, drive to Queens Ferry to Martha’s Vineyard. Double queen bed room was adequate and the bathroom was spacious. Only concern was after one shower, tub completely clogged and we were transferred to another room. The inn and staff was pleasant, housekeeping may have been understaffed, as one could tell vacuuming was needed. The restaurant on site, Percy’s Place was nice but is not open for dinner in case you do want to leave the inn. As other reviews have noted, their pool area doesn’t look the same as their picture- the wood tones are painted over in all white, taking away from the warm, relaxing feel we were looking for. All in all, a nice stay.

Great location! You must eat at Estia for dinner - definitely a highlight! The hotel was clean and mostly quiet. I did hear the neighbors speaking loudly one night. Persy’s which was attached was a good breakfast value. There was another coffee shop nearby and a consignment shop across the street but they have winter hours so I missed it. The MV ferry is nearby and we took a day trip over after we checked out!
