Beautiful view of the ocean. Bed was very comfortable. The bad: we ate dinner at the restaurant attached to, but not associated with the hotel. Even though the food was good, the service was terrible. We waited over 1/2 hour to even get waited on. There was maybe 10 people total there. I got the soup and salad bar and my husband got a club sandwich. His sandwich took over a 1/2 to get.

The view is obstructed by a loud highway full of traffic, trees and a parking lot There is NO air conditioning, it says they do but it doesn’t work. It was really hot We stayed here only for the AC and it didn’t work. I woke up at 4 am burning up .. you’d think you could open a window or door but the sound of traffic and people in the parking lot will keep you up.

Beautiful area, very clean rooms, this is our 4th time staying at Howonquet Lodge and would stay again. The Casino has lots of complimentary beverages, would be great to have more options for hotel guests too. Coffee ran out twice in the morning which was unfortunate and only two types of caffeinated tea.
