secret gem of the North Shore

such a wonderful place to stay! it's nice and quiet at night, and the bed was so comfortable. i wish i could have stayed longer!

Never Again!

The sheets and towels were clean. The bathroom floor was slick and the plumbing was LOUD! They provided a box fan to help the A/C that didn’t work even though it was set at 62! The family room had a small kitchenette, refrigerator and microwave.

This was amazing for the price. It was literally a 4 minute walk to the beach. You cannot beat the price and I can't recommend it enough, especially for families on a budget.

Perfect location. Owner nice and room was clean and quiet.

2/10 Poor

No, No, No...find somewhere ELSE

From check in until check out, I was nervous about the other "guests". Welfare/ homeless housing???? No coffee available in rooms OR office until after 8am. Ceilings falling in bathroom AND soap/ shampoo provided was less than desirable. Had 2 elderly women sitting outside rooms with many luggage bags from 4pm OVERNIGHT. I left at 745am, they were still there. Staffing argued with them multiple times and it was LOUD. Photos wouldn't load.

Diamond in the rough

Great price, barebones accommodations, but perfectly adequate and clean with great beach access and pool. Really charming in its spare authenticity. Bring your own towels and toiletries. And cash for the owner who sells anything you need for a $1 or 2.
Mary, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This is a cute little place. I imagine that, years ago, this beachfront motel was a great place to stay, just because there was probably a lot of fun stuff around to do back then. I still absolutely enjoyed my stay though, because the staff was wonderful, and the rooms we're clean and quite nice for the age of the motel. I'd probably consider going here again, just to check out the haunted house next door in October.
CHRISTOPHER, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Okay, it was a funny little beach side motor inn. The lobby is a small room packed with snacks. The owners were funny and nice. To me it was just as good as any luxury hotel, a comfortable place to sleep and shower. There are little shops and restaurants and a grocery store in walking distance, and the beach is across the street.
Andrew, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Good stay

The location was what sold this hotel for me. Didnt bother with the pool, but the beach only has swimming when lifeguards are present. The rooms are in the process of updates but the floor in my room was uneven and the door was very tricky to lock/unlock/open. The a.c. units are window units so their efficiency is as expected. Bring your own shampoo and it wouldnt hurt to pack an extra towel. The staff were very friendly and helpful and the location is good for the beach, food, and mini golf right next door.

8/10 Very good

I really like it here! The staff is nice, the rooms are equipped with microwaves, mini fridge, body wash, comfortable beds, and nice size TVs. The check-in/ out office conveniently has a variety of snacks and drinks to choose from if you want to buy.

Nice and spacious and quiet, was a great place would definitely stay again
Geraldo, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

This property had a lot of potential but ended up feeling more like an early season Schitt’s Creek motel than the listing suggested. The room was not as advertised, and the floor slanted noticeably. The shower pressure was so forceful it sprayed everywhere, and the curtain couldn’t contain it. To make matters worse, the water drained slowly. The window AC unit didn’t work, leaving the room uncomfortable, and the EV chargers were also out of order. Overall, it was a frustrating stay. With some attention to maintenance and honesty in advertising, this place could improve, but as it stands, we would not return.
Caroline, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Very close to the water.
Shaun, 1-night trip

Beds were comfortable and clean. It looks like they are trying too fix up the place. Dresser draws were full of comforters so you couldn’t but things in them. Had a kitchenette but didn’t use it. No silverware, only a butter knife stuck to a mouse trap tape.bathroom light flickered and shower stall was dark. It was an experience with very comfortable beds.
Elizabeth, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

Online photos deceptive

The pictures are incredibly deceptive. We thought this was going to be a cute retro motel with recent updates. We arrived and there was debris and trash in the front. Tried to give it a chance and still checked in. Clearly out dated and run down. Got to the room and the walls were dirty, everything felt unclean. There was a couple fighting next door. We decided we could not stay there as it felt unsafe. We told the clerk we felt unsafe and decided to go home. She was kind and told us it was safe and did offer another room but it was clear to us that was not the issue. There is no way we would have actually slept. We ended up driving home (tons of traffic, totally exhausting) and cutting our trip short. When hotels.com called to get us a refund, the hotel refused. Do not book. I’ve stayed in plenty of cheap hotels and have never felt like I had to leave.

This is my second stay here. I was not disappointed. The front desk service was warm and thoughtful. The room was clean and tidy

4/10 Fair

Be warned

Be careful when staying there. There was a roach in the bathroom. The lights kept flickering as if there was going to be a blackout. The Air conditioner wasn’t cold as it should be for a summer day. They charged $5 cash to upgrade the room to a king bed and still processed it on the internet when it was booked for a full-size. Very shady business practice.

Charming Anachronism

It's a cheap motel that's rough around the edges.
Paul, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great for the price

Pros: clean room with fridge and microwave, plenty of hot water in the shower, blackout curtains, easy beach access, free wifi Cons: power flickered off for a few seconds at least twice in the evening I did not use the AC, the mic, or the wifi to know how well they worked.

2/10 Poor

Just don't.

Just no. run down with some very low budget "improvements", like abandoned wall ac replaced with a tiny, leaky window unit. Holes is dresser from previously bolted down tv's, high step into shower tripping hazard (and dark), Quilted blankets hung on window and all around the room (for "soundproofing" I was told, fire hazard I think) Only positive notes amazing location across from beach, reasonably clean bathrooms but funky carpet and bedcovers. Owner is a friendly guy.

One and done

We stayed here the night before swim across America in Glen Cove. Although check in person was very pleasant the check in office was a bit off putting with plexiglass covering all but a small opening and covered in papers. The room on the second floor was clean but desperately needed updating. There was a large patch on the bathroom door as if someone had punched it. We were very put off by the man in a room we passed with his door wide open in his underwear on his bed. Very odd. There was an overall feeling of needing to keep our door locked and blocked. Not sure if this a long stay other type of motel but the pictures of this motel were not accurate.
