Very clean and really appreciated the "quiet hours". The only thing I could suggest is that for the downstairs rooms on the ends, maybe put a small curtain in the bathrooms. It wasn't an issue but if someone wax on the porch upstairs they can look directly down into the bathroom.

We are definitely going to stay here again. It did need some touch up but that's paint no biggie. The property was well maintained and the staff was very pleasant. I loved how many towels were already in the room and there was a nice spot to put our toiletries on. The price was also so reasonable. I very much loved coming back at night to the fire pit and the grills going.

The room was clean and well-appointed. Beds and pillows were extremely comfortable. The bedspread decoration was a nice touch. We LOVED the deck and the grassy area with picnic tables and a fire pit, too. We wish we had stayed at this hotel when our kids were young -- they would have loved to run around in the grass. Also, the receptionist at check-in suggested the most wonderful breakfast place -- The Keltic Kettle. Best breakfast I have ever had!

We would have rated this excellent all the way across except we had an unpleasant experience at check in. We pre registered as they asked. When we arrived at 2:32 pm my husband went to check in only to be told we couldn’t check in til 3. Ok so we sat in our car and watched 3 other parties go in and come out with the map of the grounds and their keys..?? Hmmm So we decided at 2:57 to try and once again check in.. the fella that told my husband no early check-ins was no longer there.. the gal that was, was pleasant enough she gave us many excuses as to why we were told this. As she was trying to come up with excuses the fella that had talked to my husband was in the room behind the check in area snickering and laughing.. But other than this …the place is a nice clean place to stay while on the Cape

My stay was great for the most part. The property needs a lot of updating and a good maintenance man to keep things up. Bathroom, many loose fixtures and needed updating. Sliding doors dirty and hard to open and close. Heater/air conditioner not very clean and had a bad smell. Coffee pot did not work, very frustrating as I intentionally look for rooms with coffee pots because I’m a coffee drinker, had to DoorDash coffee. Parking should be assigned to rooms, so that you don’t have to park in front of someone else’s room across the lot. A lot of machinery and excess stuff cluttering up back areas of property, making the view less than delightful. Staff was very friendly. Just needs a lot of updating and clean up that’s all. Area is great and it’s a pretty decent location. It’s a good price, but there are some better kept up properties in the same price range. I would stay again if need be.
