“The Hotel Salem's location in the heart of the old city places guests steps away from the Salem Witch Museum and other historic attractions. Its modern decor and rooftop terrace are pluses, creating a boutique feel. While some past experiences have been mixed, a friendly staff and in-house dining add to the appeal for those looking to explore Salem's past.”

5/10

the location was acceptable because it was close to many shops.

The room was small. It reminded me of the length of the bed. there was also limited space for bags and clothes. the bathroom had a sliding door that did not properly close so you could see someone sitting on the toilet through the gap in the door.
