Silsbee's by Daniels House

We loooooved staying here! The place is gorgeous and so close to everything worth seeing in salem .

The location and the beautiful, clean kitchen.

The stairs are very creaky so we heard the people from upstairs using them quite frequently early in the morning. We could also clearly hear them speaking through the ceiling.

Location was close to a lot of shops, within walking distance to the water!

Could hear other people staying here but guests are asked to be mindful of excessive noise.

Absolutely amazing . Great location. Place is beautiful. The owner Patrick not have been more helpful. Asked constantly if we needed anything, he gave advice on what to see in the area and some history of Salem

Great experience, thanks!

The location was great. Easy to find and safe to walk around at anytime of the day. Room was wonderful. The bed was firm which my husband mentioned a few times and we needed to ask for more pillows since ours flattened out quick but overall a wonderful stay.

It was a beautiful place to stay, instructions were very clear and I thought the breakfast options were great.

Great location and cool experience. But parking is a nightmare. I thought we had onsite parking but ended up getting yelled at by the owner because we pissed off another person staying who apparently had the right to park onsite. We had to park 3 blocks away and it rained the whole time. Both times I had to contact the owner, he was rude and it just ruined the experience for us. If you just need a place to sleep and keep your stuff, this is the place. Just don't expect any hospitality.

Our experience at Silsbee's by Daniels House for our 7th wedding anniversary was disappointing, and we checked out a day early. Although the room was beautifully decorated, there was no place to sit other than the bed. This made it impossible for us to relax and have a glass of wine or play a game. There was a giant bathtub in the middle of the room, which was atmospheric but impractical. A table and chairs would have better served the space and its guests. My husband's shower was cut short because the hot water ran out. Filling a bathtub of that size seemed unlikely. Although there was a lovely patio outside where we could relax in the summer, it was inaccessible during winter or inclement weather, leaving us with nowhere else to go. The next-door sister inn of Silsbee's does have space to sit, but it is only accessible to guests of Silsbee's during breakfast. We recommend that the owners open up that space to all guests, so there is a place to hang out and relax after a long day. The only gourmet item we found during the continental breakfast was the tea, which was delicious. The website and reality did not align, possibly because it might have been gourmet at one time, but it was not the case during our visit. Nothing appeared to be home-baked except maybe the muffins. There were no croissants and instead of those, there was some very sad looking sliced bread and English muffins. The coffee was made using K-Cups from Kroger, and the bananas were overly ripe.
