Bicycle Street Inn

10/10 Excellent
"We’ve stayed on the island many times, but this was our first time staying in the downtown area. The Bicycle Inn did not disappoint! We were able to check in at noon when we arrived, which was wonderful. We had 4 adults and a child, so stayed in a room with the pullout bed, the room was large and so modern. Everything was perfect and such a convenient location—we will definitely stay here again our next time on the Island!"
