We wanted a property that had a fabulous view and would enable us to walk to dinner at Coast Guard House. The Atlantic House checked both boxes. We arrived early, tired from travel, and were able to check in early (for a $35 fee). Ivan was great carrying my wife’s incredibly large and heavy suitcase up an imposing flight to our second floor room (we were aware there was no elevator). Our room (201) was facing the ocean with a small deck on the side and an ample sitting area. The furnishings are very tired, the fitted sheet kept coming off the king bed ( which, truth be told was not uncomfortable). The bathroom oddly had the sink in the sleeping space but the shower, while as tired and in need of the same refresh as the room, had great pressure. The common deck was also a nice feature with tables and chairs (no umbrellas so the full day sun was a bit toasty). Coffee and a VERY modest “breakfast” offerings were terrible. All in all, the two major points were met but having arrived there after a spectacular few days at The Inn at Stonington it was overall a disappointment. Nice folks, very tired property. ( and as an aside, more costly than Inn at Stonington for a room 1/2 the size and much older and craggy though we were aware of the cost when we made our choice, just not the incredible disparity)
