Alan, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

A good stay, nice size room and walking distance to shops and restaurants. Plenty of parking and not too noisy for the proximity to the road. A shout out and recommendation for Kevin's corner Irish pub, a five minute walk away and excellent drinks and food (pub food). The owner Kevin was a delight. Breakfast back at the Circle lacked variety but was adequate.

Amazing stay. Wish we’d booked for longer than one night. Cliff the owner couldn’t have been more helpful and welcoming. The pool area was great and being able to walk into Hyannis was a huge bonus. Would highly recommend this hotel and we will definitely be back!

Stayed here to rest our eyes on our drive and loved it. It’s very quiet and comfortable and reasonably clean. The bathrooms could be a little cleaner though but other than that we would stay here again.
