Anchorage 1770

All in all it was good. Would likely try somewhere else if we returned Pros: beautiful old historic building. Welcome glass of wine was nice. It has Lovely porches and swings. Great location in Beaufort. Walking distance to everything. Serves a very Good breakfast. Room was quiet in the evening. Nighttime cookies were a nice touch. Clean linens and towels. Breakfast hostess was nice. Now the cons: pillows are like sleeping on a bag of russet potatoes. Extremely lumpy and hard. Had to make a pillow out of the duvet. Could use some room darkening shades as room is bright at night. Neither of us slept well at all. Someone else did mention the Fabuloso cleaning product. The smell is too strong. We skipped room cleanup day 2 to avoid the smell. Bath needs a brighter bulb Room 302 has a very high bed. I have a high bed at my house. However this is too high for guests. Anyone short or with a disability will have trouble. My elderly parents could never stay in this room as they can’t access the bed. Small provided steps are insufficient. Sorry to say the room itself was not very clean. Dirty in lots of places (not just worn) Went from here to a spotless inn in Savannah.

Inn was very outdated and not clean as roaches were found behind the bed. Owner did not respond , after 3 attempts, to us asking for a one night credit as a smoke alarm was beeping all night because the battery needed to be changed. Harley was a great server which was the only positive thing about our stay .

We stayed in the Lower Courtyard room. It was delightful. The bed was very comfortable. The bath was small but workable. It was nice to have the privacy and private patio area. The inn is very nice and breakfast was delicious out on the front porch! The grits exceptionally good. Staff friendly and turn down with chocolate chip cookies and lemon infused water a nice touch. Highly recommend a stay here. There's also an elevator in the main building, a plus.

Disappointed when the local authorities issued us a parking ticket while checking in - the owner said she would take care of it and never did. Calls to her to remedy the situation went unanswered and notices from the city or Beaufort forced us to deal with the ticket ourselves. Considering what Inn charges per night one would have hoped they would have followed through on their word, or bothered to respond to multiple calls.

Wonderful old school manor. Beautifully maintained/restored. Centrally located and within walking distance of everything Beaufort. Breakfast was delicious! Three porches to choose from! Saw yoga class on the upper porch in the morning. Highly recommended!

Great visit with exceptional service and amenities. The owners and staff went above and beyond in making our time there a memorable stay. All the small details were attended to by the staff. Looking forward to future trips. The house is spectacular.

Highly Disappointed. Our celebratory evening was not as we expected. Our room was dusty with a stale musty odor and peeling paint in closet. Dinner reservations was a debacle as the staff attempted to put 4 of us in a window table for 2 and ended up floating a table between the dining room and foyer. We did not stay. The honor bar was dirty, unkempt and extremely sparse in selections. The worst was lack of accountability and good will regarding a parking ticket that they were to pay for. We have since received a fine from Town of Beaufort which we paid. After two phone calls and assurance it would be addressed we have yet to hear. For the rates the Inn charges , the lack of follow up, accountability and good will is disappointing.

We had a wonderful experience at the Anchorage 1770 Inn the week of Independence Day. Our room was one of the first floor Garden View Rooms. We enjoyed the interaction the room gave us with the staff since the kitchen & housekeeping on that floor. Room was clean & the staff kept it that way throughout our stay. Large bathroom with 2 showerheads. Each night we received 2 chocolate chip cookies and some lemon water for turndown service. Great options for breakfast each morning made for a great start to each day. Perfectly cooked eggs, sausage, grits and French toast plus fruit. Diana took care of each morning and checked to see how our stay was going plus offered us suggestions for things to do each day. We had dinner our final night at the Inn. The meal was the second night for the new chef. We enjoyed the meal with one of us getting a Ribeye with charred corn and mashed potatoes and the getting the Prime Pork with purple sweet potatoes & squash. For an appetizer, we had the lamb crostini. Our waiter, Brian, did a great job, but we were looked after by everyone else there too. The chef came around to interact with each of the tables to see how she & her staff had done. We ate all our meals on the front porch which makes for a great setting. Don’t miss watching the sunset from the fourth floor porch. One of nights we were was July 4 and we were able to see several fireworks displays in the area. Grabbed some bourbon & rye one from the honor bar on that floor to enjoy the view on another night. The Inn provided us beach chairs & towels the days we went out to Hunting Island State Park. One day we used their bikes to see the Spanish Moss recreation trail. Walking to restaurants, Reconstruction Era National Park & seeing the new Harriett Tubman statue were nice too. Again we enjoyed our stay and the staff helped make our week memorable & make us already thinking when we will return.

The inn has a musty smell and overall was not neat and tidy. Our room was by the kitchen and main dining area (the inn also has an active restaurant) and we came home later one night to see that the cabinet doors were left open and many items were not put away. Not a deal breaker, but not something I needed to see. From the room that we stayed in, the inn is extremely noisy. We heard a lot of noise from the kitchen/dining staff and were woken up from 1-2:30 AM by a couple arguing loudly above us. The cleanliness of the room left a bit to be desired. There was dust on the blinds and some of the surfaces. The bed was not very comfortable. The armchair had a water stain on the seat cushion. The location is great, within walking distance the main part of town, with easy access to restaurants and shops. The staff was friendly.
