Door latch had suffered earlier damage and was not completely repaired when it was repaired sometime before our visit. Basically, the door didn't close tightly due to the previously mentioned repair as there was an approx. 1/2" or more gap present when the door was closed. Definitely a security issue.

The staff was very helpful and accommodating. The room, view and overlook of the bay was both restful and easy on the eye. I would have liked to have had 2 luggage holders as well as screens on the doors. We would definitely stay there on our next trip to the area.

Deborah

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort
The room was clean, nicely decorated and beds were comfortable. Staff were excellent and very helpful. Breakfast including freshly made waffles was great. The hotel is a bit older, but definitely well maintained. The only downside I had was the smell from the marsh in the evenings, but there’s not much the hotel can do about that. I just had to remember not to open the balcony door, which I really wanted to do to get some cool cooler air Into the room. That also meant sitting on the balcony in the evenings was not practical. Otherwise I had a great stay and will definitely go back in the future.

Disliked: Amenities
The room felt worn. The top surfaces of the furniture were beat up and so sticky nothing could be put down on them. I had a walk in shower that had good water pressure but because of the way it was installed the floor of the bathroom got wet despite using the floor mat. The pool was nice and to me the best part of the entire property.

The staff at the Waterside Inn made our Honeymoon absolutely wonderful! Wendy was kind enough to help us when we were going to be late for check in, and the room was better than our expectations! Breakfast was a delicious, simple experience that we both enjoyed, and we loved the views from our room and the spa! Thank you so much to the staff here for their large part in a trip we will remember for the rest of our lives! We do intend to return, and we cannot wait!
