Great location, restaurants are walkable. Small breakfasts in morning was just enough to get you going. Heated pool, hot tub in private setting and fishing pier made for relaxing days! Looking forward to staying again later this year. Great stay!
Everything was clean and ready when we checked in. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The young lady doing the breakfast was exceptionally friendly and set the tone for a happy day!
We had a lovely stay and enjoyed our balcony which overlooked the water and provided a beautiful sunset view. The staff was very helpful and friendly. We enjoyed breakfast with fresh coffee.
, eggs and bacon. Overall, we were pleased with our accommodations, the central location and proximity to areas of interest and restaurants.
The waterside Inn is one of the most friendliest places there. We have been staying there for many of years to celebrate my birthday. If you want to relax this is your destination. The rooms are alway clean and staff are great.
The room was nice and clean and every day when you are not there the house keeping comes and cleans the room and changes the trash and the pool is nice and the hot tub everyone that works at the motel room is very nice

Fresh breakfast, jacuzzi for public use upstairs, wonderful view and seagull songs in the am. Nearby, walking distance very good restaurant.
Waterside Inn was wonderful, we would return in a heartbeat. Friendly, helpful people, beautiful deck overlooking the bay, great amenities, coffee in room plus a hot, generous breakfast, hot tub with a view, easy parking, elevator with carts for easy transport to room, easy access to town and Chinoteague Wildlife Refuge.
I usually stay here as it is affordable, in a quieter part of town, and every room overlooks the water and Wallops Island. The staff is very friendly and called to let me know I had left a insulated cup behind. Highly recommend giving this place a try.
The staff was friendly and helpful. The room was clean & comfortable. We felt safe in and around the property. We elected to have breakfast out, I have no doubt it was as nice as everything else. We will definitely stay at this hotel again!
