An updated motel furnished in a modern comfortable way. Every amenity was on hand from ample towels to two enormous tv's in living room and bedroom. The Nespresso coffee maker was a real plus except instructions were missing on how to operate but manager apologized promising to fix this issue. Access to pool also dock. Lovely little place to stay with most pleasant smiling staff.

We loved the room, the easy check-in and check-out process and the location of the hotel. The room was clean and tasteful, with everything you needed. Our coffee machine didn’t work, and the shower light was out but we weren’t inconvenienced so we didn’t mind. We’ll definitely return again on our next trip to Hampton Bays!

An easy comfortable clean place to stay in Hampton Bay. It has a pool and lawn chairs and it’s right on the inlet of the water. There’s a restaurant with music a few doors away serving hamburgers and wine, etc. There is parking on the premises they have a continental breakfast consisting of bagels, yogurt, and a energy bar, which are all delicious. Check-in is not until four, which generally is a little bit later than most hotels which is three. But all work and there’s plenty to do nearby in Westhampton and Southampton ed ok

The Penny Lane provided a very new and clean room that was nicely decorated. The rug was quite rough and could not be walked on barefoot and the coffee maker in the room did not work. But we had a delicious breakfast that included Goldberg’s bagels and specialty coffee made by a server. It was pouring so we did not get to enjoy the pool. Expedias confirmation said check in was at 2 and Penny Lane said at 4 but we checked in after 5 since we came from a party.

The staff was amazing. The property was beautiful and immaculate. It was located about 5 minutes from town, on a marina, close to the bay and beaches. We were in a cottage with a shared porch. The ambience was friendly and homely. There were about 16 cottages so definitely not crowded (a plus). You are responsible for maintaining your cottage. Cleaning service came in once during our six day stay. Crockery and utensils were provided as well as daily muffins and croissants. You can replenish your towels in the office. For someone used to staying in hotels, it was a unique experience. I would return and I highly recommend this property.
