The Cozy Cove
Pros:

20 minute walk to Salem proper. Room was decorated well. Love that there was a women's touch to the rooms (make-up towle). Staff was helpful and communative. Not bad for an re-branded motel.

Cons:

Stay was Friday to Monday morning. Clean towels, but trash left on table Sat. Also, bed not made up second day. I am unsure if this is standard now. No cleaning staff on Sunday.

Disappointed
Pros:

Very aesthetic rooms

Cons:

Sadly we woke up in the middle of the night with ants in the bed that had come in from the skirting board. We did inform staff on checking out that we were unhappy due to the ant infestation, and was advised that management would contact to discuss our concerns but have yet to receive contact. Other areas of the hotel are currently undergoing renovations, meaning it wasn’t always as peaceful as we would have liked.
