The apt (suite) was really cute for the money. It was so close to oquinqut but not in the full traffic. Quiet room and stay. Only feel it needed a serious update from 1980s decore. But it was VERY clean. And the ocean view was not of a beach or ocean. But of the marshes the property over looks. I would stay here afain

This a a sweet little place with a long history in town. It's close to great restaurants and just a mile to Wells Beach. It was clean and affordable for our off season stay.

Disliked: Staff & service, room comfort
When we first walked in, it smelled like a nursing home. Mattress was horrible. Rolled into middle. Room was hot, ac was just intermittent. Our fault we didnt see small sign about dirty dishes. Cost us $25 for 2 dirty coffee cups left in sink. There was a small mud hole near stairs to our room. Overall, overpriced for what we got. Stayed in much better places in Maine.
