First time here and definitely plan to return.
Erin, 1-night trip

Loved our stay in Cabin #7 so cozy and cute with a loft, hot tub and fireplace with our own private backyard, very quiet and relaxing, we will definately stay here again 😊

1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We loved the fenced in backyard to the cabin with private hot tub and fire pit and grill, we enjoyed being close to the pool, and just a short walk to the beach so we were far enough from the noise. The bed was not very comfortable, but otherwise the cabin decor and amenities were great. We will definitely be back!

Pleasant stopover

Pleasant stopover, staff were accommodating and helpful. As for accommodations, think simple cabin that's been nicely painted. Has fridge, microwave, table - all the basics. Lower comfort rating because the beds were well past their expiration date (creaky "box spring", thin, worn out mattresses). Still, I'd stop here again for a quick stopover.

Room or Hobbit Hole?

They said that we had an Ecno Room, and that's what it was. A bed and a shower. There was no Closets, and no Burrows. We had to put our cloths on the floor, and then there was not enough room to move around the room. To be honest, this was not the room for us.

Needs a deep clean

Very dirty. Layer of grime across all the blinds and the bathroom had not been cleaned. Mould on the panels on the ceiling and extremely noisy area.

2/10 Poor

Didn’t end up staying here I found something else

Would give no stars if I could. Horrible experience with these guys!!!! They refused to give me a refund after saying they would fully refund me I still have the text messages. Getting in contact with a person to help us was hard they have no office. We went to check in the door was open, the sheets for the kids beds were missing, not to mention the mattress have no covers protectors they were dirty and gross and had black hairs all over them. we had no towels, the floors were dirty and my truck was bigger than the building. The other people checking also were saying how unhappy they were and the doors were open and I heard a lady say “did they even clean the room!?” So I’m not the only one upset. I watched them drive away to find another place to stay as well. I did not stay here I stayed somewhere else that was much better and luckily had openings.

10/10 Exceptional

The rooms were so cute! So clean. Love the Monopoly names! I could use a little more parking because it’s hard when you have more than one car for your party. The lady that stayed on the property was so nice and checked with us to see if we needed anything and that we had everything we needed. Not a long walk to the beach. Would definitely stay again!

Cute little room

We had a family emergency so we didnt get to stay at the hotel but it was a cute litte room.

Les informations que j'ai reçu dans mon courriel ne fonctionnaient pas. Le code de ma porte , le WiFi. La chambre devait être prête à 16h , lorsque nous sommes arrivés et avons demandés à la dame qui fait l'entretien si la chambre était prête, il était terriblement bête , m'a demandé d'où je venais et m'a dit de la laisser travailler lorsque je lui ait dit que je venais du Québec. Elle a commencé à nettoyer notre chambre à 15h50 donc pas prête à 16h et lorsque je lui posait des questions , elle était super bête et semblait susceptible par mes questions . Chambre propre mais très petite et pas de rangement. Nous entendions la télé de la chambre d'à côté.

Mal entretenu, chambre beaucoup trop petite, trop cher, douche très vieille et pas l'air propre, les employés s'en foutent, vieux et mal rénové. Pire expérience à vie. Très cher pour aucun service

Très cher pour chambre minuscule.

Chambre minuscule, pas d’eau chaude, très cher pour ce que c’est…

2/10 Poor

There was nothing we liked about this stay. We were there from out of state for a basketball tournament. We never once saw any staff . Never given any Wi-Fi information. Space we thought we were getting was advertised to have enough space to accommodate and a kitchenette. We had to purchase air mattress and room didn’t even have a microwave. Bathroom shower was super sketchy. We never found the hot tubs that were advertised and the pool had actual worms in the bottom. Horribly disappointed and will NEVER go back and will definitely let our area that travels there with multiple teams to not go there.

Very clean very friendly only thing is the bed is not very comfortable

The rooms are messy, tiny, and not always in the best shape. I do not plan to stay there again. The beds are uncomfortable. The windows don’t always work. You can’t cover the windows.
1-night trip

2/10 Poor

The place is not safe. After a short time at the place, (we arrived in the evening), we found that a knife had been stuck in one of our tires. Our room smelled of marijuana, there were dirty sheets outside our room door sitting area and an ash tray with a cigarette butt. Some of the inhabitants seemed sketchy and watched us, the motel desk person was unfriendly and unprofessional, there are no lights outside at night...we felt the place was dangerous. We left the room and had to find another hotel late at night and had to have our tire replaced the next day. Booking MG ruined our vacation. I tried to contact them many times, no one will respond. AVOID!

Close to beach

The room I was given (room 4) was pretty dated. The bathroom was especially out of date. There's a lot of noise here from the busy road outside. I got a really good price, so I didn't complain. The bed was comfy, and the mini fridge worked well. The pool was nice and seemed to be well maintained. The beach is about a 3/4 mile walk, so you can walk to the beach from here to avoid paying for parking. Overall, I was happy with this stay for what I paid (less than $100 a night). If the price was higher, I probably would've went somewhere else.
3-night trip

4/10 Fair

Shower was not short friendly, toilet took 3 or more flushed to go down, stains on carpet, bed was very stiff and noisy, had to ask for towels every night, the last night was told they were not going to make a special trip to give towels, there was no filter in the window ac unit and it had an inch of dust on it (I have bad allergies), window was broken and could not close or lock it , screen door would not stay closed and would flop in the breeze, bricks to porch were not secure and tripped a few times, dresser was missing the bottom to the drawer, refrigerator was hard to open due to it rubbing on the carpet every time you opened it. The pictures posted on Travelocity were very misleading and I wanted to leave the next day but my husband said no . Please take this as constructive criticism. Best Wishes, The Schrom’s

Hotel had just opened back up has a nice pool good location buildings need some tlc alot.of minor repairs need to be attended to.but i would go back again hopefully they will fix it up a little befote then
Mark, 3-night trip

4/10 Fair

While it is clear that some thought was put into the decor of the rooms, the room we stayed in was very small with no curtains on the windows in either the bathroom or bedroom leaving us feeling like we had little privacy. The shower also ran lukewarm. While it met our basic needs for the night, it was a pricey room for the experience
