We loved our stay at the China Clipper. So close to everything and it's tough to beat the setting. Kristin is a wonderful host and the breakfasts each morning were spot on and delicious. The room didn't have a view and was a bit spartan, but very comfortable. Nobody ever used the hot tub and being that it was shoulder season, it wasn't terribly busy. We would most certainly stay again.

My wife and I had an amazing several day stay at the China Clipper Inn. It reminded us of a Bed and Breakfasts you see in the movies. The Inn Keeper, Kristen and son Rafe are amazing hosts. They do their best to ensure a great experience. The room was very nice and clean. The breakfast is incredible. You will not be disappointed. We are already wanting to plan a return trip.

8/10 Very good

I loved the Victorian atmosphere of the Inn. The breakfast was different each day and was wonderful. (Quiche, biscuits w/sausage gravy, bacon and eggs with banana bread, and always fresh fruit) The staff was welcoming and helpful. Oh and the patio was just so cozy for sitting with a book and looking at the scenery! The furnishings were comfy and the little lamps were so cute. The extra plugs/charging stations at each bedside were extremely thoughtful! There were interior sitting areas with books to read upstairs and downstairs if you wanted to relax outside of your room. Very peaceful. Coffee, tea, and fresh water from a dispenser were available all day for our convenience. Not crazy about the bathtub/shower because It was not installed with good support at the bottom and it gave a little when I stepped in. It was a fiberglass shell-type. It’s one or two small blocks to some great dining and shopping. So you don’t have to drive to dine. Other than that, it was a pleasurable stay.

I liked the style of the house and the decorations. I loved the concept of eating breakfast at the dinner table with other guests. My only complaint was that we did not know how to get tv stations on our nice TV. The instructions on the tv were not helpful. It was the inn keeper’s day off. We were given instructions on how to contact her if there were any problems, which we decided not to do.
