3.0 star property
10.0 out of 10, Exceptional, (12)
"This roomy studio located in the Seabright neighborhood is comfortable, uncluttered and beautifully decorated. It has a stall shower with a separate vanity, a compact but well appointed kitchen with a large worktable which doubles as a dinette and a comfy queen bed. On a very rainy and cold weekend, the row of hooks for raincoats, jackets and sweaters was well appreciated. But it is the location that makes this property special. We walked to the Crow's Nest in the harbor for Thanksgiving...
