No person on site but it was needed. Was a short walk to shopping and the wharf. Quintessential New England Seaport. Food options in Rockport weren't great but many within a short drive. Room was good and we enjoyed our time there. Would stay again.

What a lovely place. The room was beautiful and well equipped. Best mattress I ever slept in! The property is well maintained, walkable to restaurants, stores and the beach. The staff is friendly and everything was perfect! I'd live there if I could.

Beautiful inn and fabulous room. Decor is beautiful and feels very luxurious. The host was incredibly accommodating before we arrived. Unfortunately we didn’t get to meet them. Location is great, just minutes walk to shops and restaurants in Rockport. Would definitely stay here again.

Very cozy interior
Amenities were fine (TV, Keurig, fridge)
Close to the main part of Rockport
Only con is the main door locked us out for a brief period (since it was jammed)

The manager is a pleasure.
That said, B&B's second B is no longer. Bathrooms (and some rooms) are miniscule. Their sister property is worth the upgrade, but still no second B!

My wife and I enjoyed our stay at Sally Webster. Easy parking and close to central district of Rockport. Well kept property. Our room included a small walk-in shower and small sink, soft but comfortable bed, nice linens, well functioning air conditioning, refrigerator with freezer section, and Kerig unit. You never meet the inn keepers but easily accessible by texting. No longer offer breakfast which was a surprise to us. Very good housekeeping. Only real negative was lack of hot water for showers.

This inn is clean and in a good location but our experience was completely tainted by the fact that they were totally dishonest about the breakfast. They stopped serving breakfast a long time ago but "conveniently" forgot to update sites like Expedia where people actually do their booking. There was a note in the room saying it was discontinued but after doing some digging in reviews, we found it was discontinued LONG before we booked in May 2025. We chose this place over another very charming inn simply because of the breakfast option. Also, they have loud window air conditioners and if you want to turn it off and open the windows, our room faced a very noisy street. They also cleaned our bathroom and used so much bleach that the room stank for a whole day. That said, the place is clean and the bed pretty comfortable. It's also in a good location to the center of Rockville.

We had a wonderful spring visit to Rockport and the Sally Webster was a perfect location for walking into town and exploring. We loved the decor, the comfortable (very soft and squishy!) bed, and the location. The self check-in is easy, and we just missed the end of their breakfast service by a week or so, which was a slight disappointment but more than made up for by the incredible breakfasts we had at the Red Skiff (with a discount from the hotel). The property is unstaffed, but they were very responsive on text.

Felt impersonal from a traditional Bed and Breakfast. Breakfast was not that good and room layout did not work well.

The property had a lot of character and was very clean and tidy except for a proper lock on the bathroom. You also needed a degree to get the coffee machine to work which unfortunately we didn't.
Also a bit of a shame that there is not the personal presence on arrival.
Finally our booking in May confirmed a breakfast but a note was left to say that due to rising costs they decided at the end of 2024 to stop that and although not a problem, it should be removed from the agreement.

This charming quaint house is the ideal getaway! Beautifully decorated, cozy. Perfect that couple weekend trip and not too secluded from convient shopping areas such as salem. I recommend this bed and breakfast! Great service and they respect your privacy. Book a stay and I dare you not to fall in love with it.

A Modern yet historic Inn
This is the first Inn that I stated in that was self-check in and out. Breakfast was brought to me and placed at my door at 8:00am from a menu I selected the night before. A video walking through the front door to the room was sent via text. The bed was comfortable, and it was quiet. The Wharf is walkable but in February I drove to dinner.

Cozy, clean and comfortable
The Sally Webster Inn was cozy, clean and comfortable. The rooms were beautifully decorated and continental breakfast was delivered to the room. The Inn is only a 10 minute walk from town. We had an excellent stay.

Lovely property. Stayed in the Madame Cheng room which was spacious and well decorated. Walkable to Rockport and the waterfront in less than 10 minutes. Breakfast was really nice, pre-ordered the night before and waiting outside your room at 8pm. Private stay but host was available if needed. Would recommend and stay again.
