Peaceful, historic, vintage 2nd balcony porch
We enjoyed staying in a historic building that reflected the history of Apalachicola. Everything was walkable and we enjoyed starting and ending the day on the wonderful 2nd floor balcony porch so common in the area.

This was a nice little room. Very clean. Enjoyed the coziness and being able to control your own AC. Had a nice little floor fan along with the ceiling fan. Nice cold in the room like we like it. Convenient to everything in Apalachicola. Had no Wifi at the beginning of the stay. Called the company and had it working in the matter of minutes. Great customer service. We loved it here.

Second time staying at the Bowery Inn. Stayed in the same room as last time. Everything much the same as last time. Quiet and in a great location close to everything downtown. I walked most every place I went. My go-to in Apalachicola.Love the balcony porch too.

Walkable to downtown Apalachicola. Seamless check-in, good communication, beautifully decorated and very clean, nice wrap-around porch with a view of the water. Private bedroom with private bathroom. Shared kitchen space for 4 units with K-cup coffee maker, microwave, sink, and refrigerator. Peaceful place to enjoy a few days in Apalachicola. There is a nursery 1 block away with all native Florida flowers. One block from live music. Just around the corner is the biscuit factory with great breakfast biscuits. Two blocks from the local brewery.

Charming Past Century Feel
This little inn was convenient, reasonably priced, and met our expectations exactly as advertised. They did caution it's not ADA compliant. My wife had a tough time with the stairs so older travelers "beware".

Great getaway spot
The property is in within walking distance of about everything in Apalachicola. Rooms are small but tidy. Comfortable beds. Very good linens and towels. Not a lot room to store things so plan on living out of your suitcase. Nice kitchen area, great wrap around porch. Easy in and out. Will book again for our next stay.
