Reviews and Ratings
Our anniversary trip was made special by the spacious and nicely furnished rooms with a view of the pool and ocean, even though the rooms themselves were more like a regular motel. The service was helpful and upbeat, part of one of the greatest packages we've ever enjoyed, even though some promises were unfulfilled. Location-wise, the hotel was beautiful, near an excellent beach, and perfect for relaxation between whale watches in Gloucester Massachusetts. The dining experience offered home-cooked Spanish dishes in the morning but could have had more options for the price. Overall, a great place to stay for a bed and breakfast experience.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were clean and comfortable, but some areas like the bathrooms were not up to par. On the bright side, the bed was cozy, and the breakfast was a nice touch. The service was friendly and helpful, making my time there more pleasant. However, the location had its drawbacks, with issues like cleanliness and lack of amenities. Overall, it was a decent stay with its ups and downs.
My stay at the hotel was delightful! The rooms were nice and very clean with spacious bathrooms, offering a view of the Atlantic and a porch with comfy seating. The service was professional, warm, and personable, although there was a slight issue with not being thanked upon checking in or out. The dining options were basic, with some items containing preservatives and not much variety. Overall, a great value for a quiet coastal getaway.
