The property had a table outside my room where people congregated. It felt weird. I was asked to not have visitors. I traveled 400 miles to see friends. If the hotel does not permit visitors it should operate as a correctional facility. Even jails permit visitors.

Great location near Shelter Island with good access to local food, drink, and entertainment. Better than expensive corporate hotels in downtown. Come out here and then take a 15 ride to downtown.

Staff was not very friendly. Check in is glassed in and very small. They are not pet friendly as the clerk asked me twice "no pets". He stuck check ins at the end of the building. I didn't feel very safe as the room was at the end of the building. The building needs a facelift. Not very welcoming but the price was good. Stayed one night. Housekeeping was very friendly.

I have stayed here several times and maybe I was given a “good room”. This time I was given a 1st floor room that was really dirty, linens were old and worn and outside noise was bad. Sadly I travel often for work and I don’t think this place is worth it to save $10 anymore.
