Will be back.
Pros:

LOVED the location proximity to the beach. Beach was very beautiful, clean, and sandy.

Cons:

There was nothing that we did not like about this property. Except…we were told there were no lord rooms to extend our stay another night. Later checked online and there were several 🤷‍♀️

Good location but there are better accommodations in the area for the price
Pros:

Location was great. Being able to walk to the touristy section of York was nice. This made it so we didn't have to use our car as many times as we have during previous stays in the area. Dinner pricing was what we expected.

Cons:

Pricing on some of the breakfast items was expensive. Parking during events isn't considerate of hotel guests and guests are not notified that parking could be an issue. Expensive for what is available. No pool.

ok
Pros:

The view was great and the folks at the front desk were very helpful. The bed and the new linen were great

Cons:

Door to the deck was missing a screen so we could not hope the door and enjoy the sound of the ocean. Pillows on the chairs were dirty and looked 20 years old.

Nice winter getaway spot
Pros:

Old school hotel with real keys! We visited right after New Year's Day to spend one night. I went birding across the street on Short Sands Beach in the morning. Complementary breakfast foods to pick up yourself. The in-house pub is open at night. Our room was large and clean. It's just what we needed for a mini getaway.
