;
296a Commercial St; r without bath $90-159;
)
Set back in a quiet alleyway, this guesthouse has a bonus: free bicycles. Rooms are ba-
sic - it's more like crashing with a friend than doing the B&B thing - but you get kitchen
privileges and lots of ops to meet fellow travelers.

Want to
really
get
away? If unspoiled sand dunes and a 19th-century lighthouse sound like good company,
book one of the three bedrooms in the old lighthouse-keeper's house. Cool place -
powered by solar panels and a wind turbine, and literally on the outer tip of the Cape,
miles from the nearest neighbor.

good value.

BOUTIQUE HOTEL$$$

( 508-487-4242;

; 12 Johnson St; r incl breakfast $229-419;
)
Sophisticated and relaxed, with smiling Buddhas, orchid sprays and a European-
style spa. Each guest room is inspired by a different gay literary genius; the room themed
on poet Raj Rao, for example, has sumptuous embroidered fabrics and hand-carved Indi-
an furniture.
Eating
Every third building on Commercial St houses some sort of eatery, so that's the place to
start.
