Great customer service great amenities.
Pros:

I LOVE This motel. However I will say the room was not as clean as it was as last time I stayed.

There was a wet folded towel put away for us to use. And a dirty pube towel hung from our shower…. For the price i definitely think the room should have been cleaner than we got. But other than that i will be back since I LOVE the amenities and customer service is always great. And can’t find complimentary salmon chowder anywhere else

Mom and Daughters Trip 2026
Pros:

The balcony room was perfect ! The only issue was when someone was outside smoking on the bench by the river walk ,smoke would come in our room 🫤 had to close the door . The view outside was beautiful . Maybe a little more thorough cleaning of the bedding skirts. I prefer more light in the bathrooms . Staff was amazing !!!! The free smoked salmon clam chowder at 5pm was delicious. No issues with parking . Walking distance to all the shops and ocean .

A Fair Experience
Pros:

The stay was fair. The breakfast was good guality and the dining room was clean, though the young girls restocking the food were less than hospitable. The front desk was trying hard to help accommodate us on a few issues. The A/C in our room would not cool down all the way and he said he would move us to another room but we stayed. There were poop splatters on the underneath of the toilet seat, which gives me pause on the cleanliness of the rest of the bathroom. And our tv remote did not work so we had to get another one. The hotel was beautiful and the front desk staff was very nice, just had some issues.

We felt welcome and valued.
Pros:

The staff is invariably cordial and capable. Coffee and juice were available around the clock and the complimentary breakfast was delightful. Every possible appetite was accommodated. All of the residents we met were happy and outgoing so everyone must have been enjoying their stay just as we were.

Best hotel in seaside
Pros:

It was a wonderful time and experience, the staff was absolutely amazing, the amenities are great! They have a pretty good breakfast choice each morning. 100% would come back again. We travel to the seaside area at least 3 times a year and this is now our forever hotel when we visit.

The bed was comfortable, breakfast was good, just for $350 a night I would expect more but location
Pros:

Only room we could find in area due to soccer tournament and sand castle contest.

Cons:

Room was a little tired and unable to get dark due to the blind on the door. Nice being walking distance to beach but view was not of the river but of the bridge.

It's a nice place to stay
Pros:

It was a good experience. My daughter got to use a hot tub for the first time. We loved the room and had a partial view. It was a last minute decision to stay. I would return if I was in the area 😀
