Hampton Beach night

The room was about what you would expect for the location and the price. The bed was very comfortable the room had a refrigerator in the microwave. Was only there one night and did not use the shower so cannot comment on that. I will say the room did not have heat so if you’re going and it’s gonna get chilly at night be for warned.

Very moldy bathroom walls and tub. We had to go buy bleach and used flip flops to shower. The water in the tub backs up so the drains are not clear. The hot water was amazing. We used our own sheets (they have linen service it is not done in house. Thats a plus) for the price and a place to stay for a few hours it wasnt horrible. Oh bring your own towels too. Those were tiny.

My wife and I were here for 3 nights. They put us in a room with a bathroom that was literally 6’ x 5’! Outrageous! On top of that the tiny 4x3 bathtub is an accident waiting to happen. Slippery with no anything on the floor to keep you from falling. Dangerous! The office has weird hours so we never had a chance to complain. Old, old motel. A few updates. I’d never stay here again!
