Run down
Pros:

Centrally located.

Cons:

Lack of care: bed sheets torn and stained. Continental breakfast was sub-standard for even basic items like cereal, toast, and yogurt. Even though the property had better ratings than most hotels in the area, the experience did not live to the ratings. It did not feel worth the money paid for the stay.

A great place
Pros:

Staff at front desk were super nice, informative and were able to navigate us with plans we made. It was nice to feel at ease in an unfamiliar place. We were on the ground floor, I could not hear other guests.

Cons:

Ice machine didn’t work it was a tiny inconvenience, just walked to the main building. There are no phones to contact the desk if you need anything or have questions. I have a cell, no biggie, but my parents, if they stayed, would panic I think.

Charming Schitts Creek-esque motel/hotel in a great location in Fairfield. We walked into town (20 min).
Pros:

Location was ideal for us! Loved the vibe- was very schitts creek post renovation! Really a spruced up motel but done tastefully and was clean. One staff member was very disengaged but the second lady we had (she had some red in her hair) was phenomenal and perhaps the best hospitality person I’ve ever met. There are free parking passes for the beach, they may forget to tell you but they’re worth 40/50$!!!! So worth asking. Breakfast was really good, better than some chains we’ve been to.

Cons:

Pricy for what you get, but it is a decent place. Pool is old and rundown but clean and comfortable. I wish they wouldn’t use all disposable plates and cutlery - it’s 2026!! Would have been good to have a plant based milk, for allergies and vegans, had to bring my own.

Great for the price and location!
Pros:

Great location, clean rooms, friendly staff. Reviews almost deterred me from staying but I’m glad we did. Perfect location for a girls overnight with a beautiful clean pool and local beach nearby- along with good local shopping, nail salons and sushi! Will stay again! Shoutout to Samantha at the front desk for being particularly helpful and friendly!

Goed hotel voor één overnachting als je niet al te hogen eisen stelt
Pros:

Gemakkelijk te bereiken, goed ontbijt, vriendelijk personeel en een zwembad. De kamers aan de achterkant liggen veel rustiger en hebben geen geluidsoverlast van de weg.

Cons:

Zeer gehorige airco, direct naar het bed.
Te weinig handdoeken voor het aantal personen aanwezig, waarvan één ook nog vol gaten. (Dit werd overigens keurig opgelost door het personeel bij de receptie).
Douchekraan aan vervanging toe (de hendel viel er steeds af)

Had a wonderful time. Mr Ed is very nice always greets you with a good morning at breakfast & Samantha at the front
Pros:

Everything I’ve been coming here for 4 years already, the breakfast, the outdoor pool & especially the close walk to the beach, Dunkin’ Donuts, the Duchess & the liquor store.
I’ve told my friends & family to stay here also & they have stayed & they loved it also.
Hopefully I could come back in September for my 62nd birthday

Cons:

The Diner is closed & the price for the stay.

Got the job done.
Pros:

Staff was really helpful, switched our room easily and was very helpful when our daughter had an accident.

Cons:

In our first room the refrigerator didn’t work, we couldn’t figure out the shower and the hotel phone to call the main office didn’t work (staff told us they need to be removed from the property).
