Amenities like hot water were absent.

This stay was regrettable. I rented three rooms here for my extended family. The hotel charged $30 more per room per night than listed in our hotels.com reservation. Our rooms failed to provide sustained hot water for more than 2 minutes, TV, and—in one room—functioning lights. While the other issues were never resolved, the kind front desk staff, who seemed afraid of their manager, took the time to switch a lamp from an unoccupied room, of which there were many. There was also a jagged piece of metal hanging off of the broken bedframe, which my husband bumped when getting into bed and was lucky he didn’t hurt himself on. The reservation details promised a hot breakfast buffet. There wasn’t anything but some pre-wrapped pastries that were not complimentary. Ishan the manager didn’t resolve any of it and said to call hotels.com.

Review of Anchor Inn/ Marina Inn

This was a nice place at a reasonable price. I was housed in the adjoining property, the Marina Inn, since the Anchor Inn was closed. The Manager, Chloe, was wonderful, and very helpful. Overall, a nice experience at a quiet time of the year. Charles Jamison.

Ann

Disliked: Staff & service
We had to cancel our stay as there was a tropical depression with flood warnings and rip tides AND the beach then closed due to medical waste (hypodermics) washing up on the beach and beach closing. We lost our deposit as we cancelled 12 hours after the deadline for cancellation. Anchor Inn said it was due to Expedia. Expedia said it was due to Anchor inn. The finger pointing was disappointing. It looks like a great place to stay. Chincoteague is a great place to visit. We hope to find another time to come.
