Disliked: Cleanliness
We stayed at the Mermaid Inn and found it to be a suitable option for our trip. The location was convenient, and the accommodations were generally comfortable during our visit. However, our initial impression was affected by the condition of the room upon arrival. The bedding did not appear to be clean, the bathtub required additional cleaning, and the shower curtain was visibly worn and appeared due for replacement. We also noticed that the floors were sticky and chose to clean them ourselves before settling in. Overall, we had a satisfactory stay, but the housekeeping standards and room cleanliness could be improved. Greater attention to cleaning and room preparation prior to guest arrival would help enhance the overall guest experience.

The room was pretty clean for the most part. There was some dust and cobwebs behind the curtains. Room was a bit upgraded, but ceiling was disgusting. Bed was super comfortable and room got nice and chilly to sleep! This is a self check in hotel so no staff to talk about. Ice machine could use a good cleaning. King size bedroom could use a small couch. No ocean view from the room, but a two minute walk away.

Personally, I did not care for the online check-in and having ZERO staff onsite. The room appeared clean at first then I noticed gum stuck to the curtains in an effort to keep them shut in the middle...GROSS! And hairs left in the shower/tub combo. The outside of the property needs to be cleaned up some. Location is in a quiet area of MB, so that was good.

Let's go with the positives!!! LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION! Beds comfy, ungraded furniture and refrigerator. We stayed here 3 yrs ago and loved it! Older property, great location, rooms with no frills but clean. This stay, eh I was disappointed. The check in was virtual, like an Air BNB. The interior of the room was either caulked or drywall patched to the hilt. The tub had a very slow drain, notified the property and it was repaired quickly. We noticed gnats in the bathroom and the pool was open but looked like it could use a good vacuuming. The location is great, the response from management was rapid but could use a bit more tidding.
