About this property

Dove's Perch, An efficiency Studio at Robin's Nest Inn

Dove’s Perch is an efficiency studio situated in the southwest corner of the property and often drenched in the warm glow of morning sun. Furnished with family antiques and mementos, it makes for a sweet and cozy home away from home. The bedroom is wrapped in soothing lavender color, and along with a comfy queen bed promotes a wonderfully restful night’s sleep. The sitting room is a separate space with armchairs for reading, a hostess bar (with small fridge, microwave, coffee maker and dishware), and a dining table for two.
Dove's Perch is one of two units in Robin’s Nest Boarding House, which is just five minutes from the heart of Port Townsend. Infused with color, the style integrates the casual elegance of the past with the contemporary comfort of the present. This is the perfect place for travelers who are looking for a modestly priced, spotlessly clean and restful place to lodge.
We are located on top of Castle Hill, near the century old and reportedly haunted Manresa Castle. It's a short walk to see some wonderful views of the Port Townsend's historical skyline. Uptown and downtown are both 1.7 miles east and Fort Worden is just 2 miles to the north. The total radius of Port Townsend is a little over 9 miles, so everything is close by.

Lovely Getaway

Everything described in the listing is accurate. Check-in and check-out is flawless. Host provides a Keurig machine with coffee/tea and a microwave. She also supplies some granola bars for those who like a quick and go breakfast. Mini fridge and bowls/plates provided allows you to have breakfast or yogurt in the mornings. Nice to have your own space. Thank you Robin.

Sweet

This is a lovely little spot. The only downside is it doesn’t have a kitchenette which we prefer. It’s very close to downtown but not in it which we love. A sweet garden in a quiet neighborhood.

Lovely property for quiet Port Townsend stay

Entry to property is through a beautiful flower garden with water features with a few places to sit and enjoy. The unit was nicely appointed and had sufficient kitchenette to make breakfast or snacks. It is on the edge of town so very quiet. Robin pointed me in the right direction for some local activities. Overall a great stay.

Adequate but not well equipped

The property is well located and clean. Things we didn't like: Steep stairs up to the rooms- I think not indicated on the description. Kitchenette: is simply an unplumbed closet with no sink. There are a few dishes, but in order to wash any of them they'd need to be taken to the bathroom and washed in the small bathroom sink. Chairs: There are no comfortable chairs or sofas to sit on; only 4 straight chairs in the "living area." We never saw the host; just sent her a text as requested when we left. Would not choose to stay there again.

Great location and host

We enjoyed our stay in Robin's Perch. It's clean and quiet, and Robin has thought of many details. She lives downstairs and is friendly but not intrusive -- gives her guests space but is helpful and responsive if you need something (which we did). The location is good: out of the main hubbub, but just a short drive to Water Street (downtown) attractions, an excellent food co-op, the Farmer's Market and historic Victorians on the hill, the boat yard (enjoyable to explore), and Fort Worden. We rented e-bikes from NW Solar Rover (in parking lot on Water Street, near intersection with East Sims Way), and rode west on the Larry Scott bike/hike path (eastern section of Olympic Discovery Trail), which starts at the boat yard.

Excellent stay in a lovely home!

Our stay was perfect. Robin is a wonderful host. Our space was clean and quiet. We enjoyed making coffee with the Keurig and pods provided by Robin. The booking process and check in and out procedures were seamless. This is a lovely property and is an excellent value. Robin has another room upstairs for rent also and renting them both would make for a perfect girls weekend getaway. Thank you Robin and Niko! Your home is lovely!
