Discovery Inn

My girlfriends and I needed a place to stay the night before our sea kayaking tour because although we are adventurous, we are also practical. The discovery inn worked out just right. We didn’t have a car on the island so we dragged our roller bags from the ferry dock up the hill to the inn. It was only about a mile walk and there were sidewalks the whole way. The inn itself is more of a converted motel than a typical inn. I didn’t see an elevator but considering we’d just dragged our bags a mile, what was a few stairs? But keep that in mind. There were four of us ladies so we booked two rooms with 2 queen beds each. The rooms were nice and functional. Slightly dated, but comfortable and it didn’t feel worn or old. Just think brown neutral tones. But the need was comfy, the room was clean, and the lady at checking was delightful. The desk is not open 24 hours so if you lock your key in your room after hours and forget to take a picture of the paper with the after hours number on it, well that could be a bit of a pickle. And the keys are like house keys, not the new electronic cards. It’s conveniently located to the downtown area and we felt just fine walking to and from dinner. The room came with the like shampoo, body wash, lotion and a keurig with a variety of coffee pod choices. It was more expensive than I would have guessed for the level of room and lack of other amenities you’d expect for $280/night in the middle of September. But it served its purpose.
