This is an older place but was comfortable. My husband and I both had a great nights sleep. The gentleman that checked us in was very friendly, helpful and responsive. It was very close to the tidal bore viewing and near plenty of restaurants.

Liked: Cleanliness
Located right off a main highway. It’s an old motel. Rooms were clean, but everything needs updated. Tried to get coffee at 8 o’clock in the morning. But the office said it was closed. They have refrigerators and microwaves in the room, which is nice. They should add a coffee pot.

No coffee maker in the room. A kettle and instant coffee was available at the front desk. Our room was by the outside stairs and it was very noisy.

If you need a last minute place to crash then great. Some lamps didn’t work, the room was an oven and the portable ac was very loud and didn’t cool down the room enough - shut it off in the middle of the night.
