Fun location in a classic American seaside town, great spot for a couple of Nova Scotians to explore the area and make a daytrip to Boston. Room was a little old and cramped but clean enough and functional, although a microwave would have been good. I wouldn't stay here in peak season though, the town would be jam packed, and the hotel was loud enough in October due to overlooking the pool and kids playing soccer in the parking lot. I can't imagine how bad this would be in the summer. Overall a hit, we enjoyed the stay, but it ain't the Ritz!

Cute spot

Nice little spot for a quick off-season spot. Located close to everything but just far off enough to be a little quieter.

Our stay was great. The only issue we had was that there was hair left in the bathroom from the last person who stayed there. I'm not one to complain so I just cleaned it myself, not a big deal. Other than that, our stay was great! The room was comfy and the rest of it was clean!
