The room had an outlet the was hanging out of the wall which posed a safety concern. The hair dryer was missing the on off buttons. In order to use it, you needed to plug it in but then you still can't adjust temp. The AC unit wasn't strong enough and was blowing out a black substance causing the ceiling to appear black. When we looked at the a/c unit closer it was covered in mildew(hoping it wasn't mold) this would explain why we were experiencing weird symptoms like itchy eyes, runny nose, coughing, and sneezing that got better when we left the room(I took pictures). I love a hot shower but the hot water temperature was dangerously high. I closed the curtain and it fell off the runner.

Fixer upper?

The gentleman who logged us in was very nice. Appears they are renovating. The room was good looking and the wood floors were very nice but the paint work was amateurish. The tub (wouldn't drain) and toilet (intermittently running) needs to be repaired. The air conditioning was spitting out some black funk. The bathroom light was full of bugs.

We stayed in the 2 queen bedroom which appears more modernly renovated indoors. Walls are quite thin, but other than that very pleasant stay for the price with proximity to downtown Ogunquit.

I would have liked to have had information about the room heater option. We did not know that there was one in the room or how to control it. Also, unfortunately, the people in the room next door to us (we were 47; they were 48) were very loud and talked loudly, too. Otherwise, I loved the closeness to Ogunquit Center (walking distance), and the staff was friendly. Oh, Also, even though the parking spots next to the building were blacked out, two people decided to park there anyway, and made it difficult to back up in the parking lot. Thank you for a nice stay.

Basic ... and needs some love

Fine, clean ... but needs MAJOR updating. It was October and no plans to swim but pool was gross-looking green. Best thing was location. Easy walk to Ogonquit shops and restaurants. But really, buy a can of paint and spruce the place up!

Surprised by Ogunquit

A proper old school seaside motel which was just what we wanted. Just 5 minutes walk from the centre of town and 3 minutes from the beach. Great cafes, restaurants and bars, the locals were very friendly. The Greenery cafe, almost next door does amazing breakfasts, don't be surprised to wait for a table

“Sea view” is a stretch - perhaps there is a view, but not from any place we were. The property is clean, but old. No elevator. Our room had lumpy mattresses and was clean but very tired furnishing. It does have a great spot for lunch or breakfast within easy walk. We would not stay there again.
