Very Good

The place was very nice and well setup. The amenities were very good. The staff were very pleasant and helped with plans for the day. Would definitely visit again.
This is a middle income, blue collar motel great place to use for a base good place to sleep. Extremely good staff. It’s clean. It’s comfortable. It’s not a five star hotel if you’re a Karen go somewhere else if you’re a regular person, it’ll be just great.
Room was clean and well stocked. We arrived after the lobby was closed, but a phone number was posted on the door. After a quick call, I was instructed to where I could find my room keys! It was so smooth! Excellent, honestly I couldn't recommend this place more.
The room was clean & quaint. Parking was limited, but there was an overflow lot down a ways. The shower was dated & not made for anyone over 5 foot tall. It was a great price for location compared to the other options.
Parking permit issued at registration. Property is clean and well maintained. Went to dinner at nearby Powder House Lodge which was recommended and was excellent.
The staff were very pleasant and very accommodating. The room was huge!! It was probably one of the biggest rooms I have had. All areas were very clean. Lots of parking. It was in a very walkable area to shops and restaurants.

Liked: Staff & service
Disliked: Amenities
We booked and paid for a larger room with kitchenette. We didn’t get that room and there was no ability to change rooms. Staff were nice. Room was rundown and dingy-looking. Won’t stay there again.
When I have previously visited Keystone, I have stayed at “big name” brands, but I will not be doing that again: my loyalty now lies with Keystone Boardwalk Inn. It was absolutely delightful, a well-preserved and charming update of a classic motor hotel. The staff were very attentive and the perk of having coffee and a coffee maker in your room was nice! The WiFi was the only downside, very slow, but didn’t mar the overall quality.
We attempted to stay. however when we arrived the lobby was closed and there was nothing online stating when the hotel would close. super frustrating, would not recommend this hotel to anyone
