This was an ok and very basic motel stay. The “cabin” room is very small—- just enough room for a bed and tiny table with 2 chairs. There is no closet and virtually no floor space (you won’t be putting out a yoga mat!) However, the price was right, and you can walk to the beach. Like all of grayland, everything feels a bit damp and foggy…. Motel room included.
The interior and exterior brought back many beautiful memories of Hawaii where I am from. The peacefulness and the interior design made me feel at home. Distance to the ocean was easily walkable. In case of power outage, bring flashlights and water.
So these are little cabanas is what I got. I didn't stay down at the main hotel down by the water, but at main hotel I don't think you can even see the water anyway it's so far away. I would stay in the cabanas over the big hotel. the room was super clean newly remodeled it looks like to me. I would definitely stay here again. big beds, hot water, and good water pressure lots of parking.

Solid spot for clamming nearby and checking out the annual cranberry harvest festival. Units are older. Some have kitchens and some don't. There is a fire fit and chairs to lounge on. From the oceanview units, you can walk to the beach and avoid driving over for clamming (don't forget to mark how to get back though!)

The property manager was very friendly and welcoming. She was wonderful to deal with. The room was clean but ,I believe because of the age of the property, there is an unpleasant oder. We had a 2 queen bed cabin. It was very small but did have everything that was needed for our two night stay. There is not an ocean view from the cabins but it's an easy walk to the beach.
It was smaller than I expected. I thought a cabin would have a kitchen. But the microwave worked very well for the over night stay. It was about a 10 minute walk to the beach. I was hoping for a view of the beach.
Super cute little cottage style room. The 'cottage' is split into 2 separate units, and we had 1 side. There is no air conditioning, but it was cool enough in September that we left the window open to cool the room down (we're from Canada). The ocean is close and just down the little road, that we walked and caught the foggy sunrise. Very comfy beds, pillows and sheets!
This property was misrepresented on your website, the conditions of the cabins, office for checkin and general upkeep of the facility immediately turned us away. We did not even bother to get out of our car. I am notifying Capital One Visa to dispute this charge,
Unacceptable conditions and upkeep, not worth any amount of Money
Sincerely,

Ocean was visible and beautiful ftom the room. The kitchen seemed to have everything though we didn't cook there. The jetted tub's drain never fully closed but held enough water to run for 20 minutes without dropping below the jets.
There was no ocean view but a very short drive to the public beach. The room was clean and quiet. Check in and check out were super easy. The beds were super comfortable. We didn't use the kitchen but,
it seemed like a very adequate kitchen. I guess My only complaint would be that there wasn't enough seating in the living room and the bathroom is tiny. But it is a small cabin. We enjoyed our stay and would stay there again
So the last time I stayed here was in 2022 and it had a swing set and sand pit for kids. This stay it was gone, Which made it really boring for kiddos.
There was mold in all the windows with dead bugs. The porch was covered in huge spiders. There is a coffee pot but with no water- you have to provide your own water to use it. The fridge kept falling apart every time I opened it.
Overall- it wasn’t as good as it was in the past. I did like being able to check in early. That was huge to me. The staff was kind and friendly. The beds were clean, although didn’t feel Ike a queen felt more like full size. The tv was huge in the room which was really nice.
A gem of a motel within walking distance of the beach. A little shopping nearby, including an excellent hardware store, but Westport is just a few miles down the road for more options.
