No coffee to be found, but there was 1/2 and 1/2 and bagels to cook . Rooms were clean and comfy ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Quincy 10 Aug 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities My family and I stayed here for 4 days and we absolutely adored this place. Let’s just say every time we went out somewhere, we wanted to just come back to independence inn. It felt like home! It was the most relaxing vacation we’ve had. Will definitely be coming back in the near future. ##### Quincy Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Pyara 9 Aug 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities Room was small but nice. Had a private bath. My room had a small sofa where my little one was comfortable sleeping. Would stay again. ##### Pyara Stayed 1 night in Aug 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Julie 24 Aug 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Peaceful Get Away Place Very clean and comfortable room. Lovely furnished property, both inside and outside. Very peaceful surroundings. One of the owners was there in the morning and he was very hospitable, showing us around and sharing information. There were board games to play as well as a piano. Lovely place to stay! ##### Julie Stayed 1 night in Aug 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### laura 25 Aug 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities The inn was lovely with a nice historic charm as expected. Self check-in was easy. The room was clean and had what we needed as well as the common kitchenette area, however leaving early we did not want to wake anyone so used it minimally. We were not aware that the restaurant and bar had closed and found ourselves at the deli for some pizza. Overall experience was nice and would return if we were in the area. ##### laura Stayed 1 night in Aug 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Carmel 24 Aug 2023 Property was nice room a little small and a little too far from the location I was going to ##### Carmel Stayed 1 night in Jul 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Leah 13 May 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### weird in a nice way It was a low-frills room but clean, comfortable, and dark enough. Tap water was not delicious, water pressure strange. It was cool staying in a really old inn! I liked the ambiance and had a good night of sleep. ##### Leah Stayed 1 night in May 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Siddharth 14 Oct 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities we checked in around 9 pm and was dark out. no staff at the location . felt little spooky at the beginning, called the Inn Keeper and she explained about the building. It was a old building but it was clean . had a small kitchenette which was very convenient for us. they had every thing you need for a Breakfast. i had not issues for a one night stay. beautiful lake near this stay. ##### Siddharth Stayed 1 night in Oct 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Leigh Anne 5 Oct 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities Disliked: Staff & service, amenities We never saw a member of the staff, it was self check in and out. There was supposed to be breakfast included, nothing. Maybe during a different season? The building was built in 1832 and was very charming. The rooms were comfortable. Kind of off the beaten path and no restaurants or stores around. ##### Leigh Anne Stayed 1 night in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### CHRIS 4 Nov 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Our experience at the Inn was remarkable. If you are looking for a central place to go and explore the area, this is it. The owners and the staff were exceptional. Anything that we needed was addressed immediately. The food at the attached restaurant was second to none. The Independence Inn has old world charm and New World management which makes it the perfect place to stay and enjoy the beautiful New Hampshire foliage or any of the many other interests that the area has to offer. I would recommend The Independence Inn to anyone. We hope to return again soon and look forward to seeing the owners again. Thank you all for your hospitality! ##### CHRIS Stayed 6 nights in Oct 2023 ### 4/10 Poor #### Andre 15 Aug 2024 Place lacks from being able to meet someone as we expected for a place identified as an Inn. Advertised continental breakfast is basic in a self-served kitchenette on the middle floor without any adjacent sit-down area. Mini-fridge in room was not cleaned and had leftovers from a past customer. Parking was good. ##### Andre Stayed 1 night in Aug 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Janelle 4 Oct 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities This is a no-contact Inn with a phone number for the Innkeeper posted. Very nice room, but the latch on the bathroom door didn’t work so you had to place something against the door to keep it closed. The lamp bulb by the night stand was dead but we switched it with another one in the room. We appreciated the breakfast offerings, kitchenette, white noise machine, and reasonable price. ##### Janelle Stayed 1 night in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ben 8 Sept 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Over all very cozy. Good place for our family to crash at night. It was very self serve in one way with putting sheets on the extra beds, but the staff took the time to fire up the ACs for us, so it was nice and cool on a hot summer evening. Room was clean, but the fridge was missed when cleaning out and a dirty cloth was missed in the tub...these things happen sometimes! We would definitely come back to this inn and explore the area again if opportunity comes up. ##### Ben Stayed 1 night in Sep 2023 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Tesla MedBed Center, East Dubuque](https://www.expedia.co.uk/East-Dubuque-Hotels-Tesla-MedBed-Center.h1076011.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Place Titusville / Kennedy Space Center](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Titusville-Hotels-Hyatt-Place-Titusville-Space-Center.h44354265.Hotel-Information) > > [Clarion Inn Nashua](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Manchester-Hotels-Clarion-Inn-Nashua.h1516.Hotel-Information) > > [The View Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kayenta-Hotels-The-View-Hotel.h59418009.Hotel-Information) > > [Fireside Inn & Suites Gilford](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Laconia-Hotels-Fireside-Inn-Suites-Gilford.h1536870.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Grand Vacations Club Ocean Tower Waikoloa Village](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Waikoloa-Hotels-Ocean-Tower-By-Hilton-Grand-Vacations.h28763131.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Dakota](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Killdeer-Hotels-Hotel-Dakota.h9760278.Hotel-Information) > > [The "Big House" with..
