Great overall stay. Great location with friendly staff. Having to pay for parking and the size of the room was our only areas of improvement. Other than that we enjoyed our stay at Milo.

Hotel Milo is across the street from the ocean. A few minutes walk to Stearns Wharf and State Street. Jeannines’s is an excellent breakfast cafe located on the corner. Ask for a room with an ocean view or garden view. We had an alley view where the valet parks, etc. There is construction — so make sure you get a quiet area. Our room was nosy early in the morning.
