There is no staff at this property. Everything on line. Doors have key pad locks. This may be a turn off for most, but we were fine with it. I had trouble with the lock but my call was answered and the problem was taken care of. Turns out the room door lock does not work until 3pm unless you request it earlier. We arrived at 2:55 pm. .

We reserved this property off Expedia. We were looking for a reservation about an hour from Yarmouth. The price was a factor that lead to our choice. We had to check in electronically, before we arrived and were sent a text with room codes the day of arrival. When we got there, there was limited lighting outside and the stairs were of odd size and dangerous. The exterior is in need of a paint job, and the parking was on the street or an ancillary lot that we were afraid to try and access because of the low clearance on our Spyders. We found the room codes did not work and called the number for service. They were able to give us the code used previously and it did work (but did not leave me feeling good). There is no one on property at all, but there is a kitchen area that leads you to believe that there is the possibility of food service; however there is none. All rooms are on the second floor and there is no lift. Stairs were steep. The room itself was clean and had a TV, coffee maker, and small fridge. There were very few electric outlets in the room, and I had to crawl around on the floor to get to the electric power strip that the appliances were all plugged into. We stayed one night and it was adequate for a one night stay. General FYI-Nothing in the town is open late or opens early. We had difficulty finding food for dinner or breakfast.

Very nicely renovated building. Everything inside looks new in this old charmer. Clean and quiet. I've read some people had a hard time entering, as there is a lock and no staff onsite. I just called the phone number listed on the sign on the door and was in contact with staff and was immediately given the entry codes and was in my room in a matter of seconds. There is A1 pizza within walking distance and they have incredible Donairs. Parking was adequate, with street parking in the front or a small lot in the back of the building. TV, coffee, shower, refrigerator, internet (albiet a little spotty). Everything i needed, and a comfortable bed a well. You could walk into town or down to the waterfront from here as well. It's a nice place. I recommend it.

A couple of explanations on my rating: gave staff and service 3/5 (mid) because there was no option to choose N/A. Self Checkin was available, so no reason to meet staff. Facilities are very limited despite the appearance of a bar and restaurant, but we may be too early given the seasonal nature of the location.

Room was very clean and tidy. It was recently renovated so the carpet and paint were very clean and crisp. I asked for an early check in and late check out and was quickly sent a message that it was not a problem. I’d recommend the hotel.
