Unfortunately, we were kept awake both nights by the carousers until 2:00 am or so. The odors from the pizza place dumpster next door wafted our way, and that wasn't too pleasant, either. The breakfast was great as well as the views from the porch. I suppose if you come to the island to go out and party at night... More

I found the location and outdoor shower fabulous! When I booked this location I was looking for a place not too far from the ferry and wouldn't need a vehicle to get around and enjoy the town, beach etc... I got exactly what I was told by Cindy the Innkeeper Manager. I feel she represented the Gothic very well to... More

The Gothic Inn just changed management and it's a wonderful place to stay with great staff and affordable prices. We stayed in a few different rooms in the Inn, but they also have apartments if you can get them. It's in the heart of town, making getting anywhere very easy on foot. No need for a car. Cute, clean and... More

What a great place to kick back and relax. Easy walking distance to beach, town, rentals. Staff is so accommodating and polite. No hassels what-so-ever. Really nice complimentary breakfast which can be eaten on the porch over looking the ocean. Couldn't ask or more!

We have stayed at the Gothic Inn for almost 10 years now and love it! They have quaint period furnished rooms and a great porch to just hang out for the continential breakfast they include, to play a game or just read a book. The porch has ocean views and is just lovely. The staff is very nice and goes... More

We stayed one night in one of the apartments. The price and service was very good, but the place was not very clean. Every time we were in the room, we had to exterminate ants that were all over the kitchen counter. There was used soad in the bathroom and it was not clean at all. Breakfast was very good... More

This is the PERFECT place to stay if you are looking to experience the charm and history of Block Island AND modern day beach town activity. The location is perfect for getting around the island without a car, near beautiful beaches and great restaurants. My husband and I returned to the island after 20 years to stay at the Gothic...

The Gothic Inn was warm and welcoming, particularly the staff members that I interacted with the most, Emily and Cindy. The room was bright and airy. Sitting on the porch for dinner was utterly relaxing. I would recommend this Inn to anyone and everyone!

If your looking for a clean, close to everything bed and breakfast, on BI, this is a great place. Very laid back, friendly atmosphere, private location, yet close to everything. No frills, on a personal level....

I think I lucked out- I got a room on the top floor overlooking the beautiful beach and ocean. My room was clean but small. Would have been ok for a small couple. It has a nice wrap around porch and the inn takers are very pleasant and bring you whatever you need. I don't think I would have been... More
