Great Inn, decent food, great staff, awesome views. The Inn really needs to invest in air conditioning for room 7 located on the 3rd floor. The thermostat never went below 82 in our room. My husband and I slept with 3 fans blowing on us at night. I would suggest that the Inn stop renting this room or do something... more

This was our first trip staying on the Island. Payne's Inn was wonderful. We had Room 2. It was beautiful and the view was fantastic. The Inn is decorated beautifully and it was quite clean. The breakfast was tasty and filling. There were cookies in the afternoon. We had a wonderful taxi driver Richie who recommended two great places to... more

We were pleasantly suprised when we arrived at Payne's Harbor View Inn. The place is run well and is beyond clean. Our room was on the 3rd floor and the room and the bathroom were huge.

My husband and I felt very relaxed during our two day stay at Paynes Harbor View Inn. We were greeted by a very nice woman by the name of Carol. She showed us around the inn and explained where we could find whatever we needed. She told us about the delicous Paynes donuts that are made daily..and she was right.... more

I have never been to Block Island and always wanted to go. I heard about Payne's through a friend. She told me it was a brand new hotel and it was very pretty and nice. Yes, it was a brand new hotel and yes it is pretty and nice HOWEVER.... It is August and I was put on the 3rd... more

Came here after friends stayed and said it was all-new. All I can say is new was about the only positive thing about Payne’s. The service was non - existent.
