We booked at the last minute for a 1 night stay and I picked this place because of the reviews for cleanliness. I totally agree that it was clean, updated, the bed was comfortable, and easy to park. There was a fridge and microwave and space to spread out. I would absolutely stay here again

So very disappointed by our room at this property. We were assigned a dog friendly room, #113. The shower / tub did not drain, the toiletries were used. All but one bottle. There was just a tiny amount of the body wash left in the tiny bottle and no replacements. The worst was the black mold growing all along the bottom of the fabric shower curtain because of the tub not draining when showering. I chose this hotel because it was well reviewed and I'm not one to leave many reviews. It was just gross and I feel like potential visitors should know.

Staff was very nice, room fairly clean except it smelled of mildew. The bed was made daily and fresh towels were provided. You could not hear the people in the next room, however because the floors are not carpeted you could hear kids running around upstairs.

This was my second visit to the Anchor. It’s a short drive to the beach, the beds are comfortable, and the pool kept the kids entertained. Unfortunately, parking was a challenge for our two rooms even though we only had one car, the Wi-Fi was poor, the TV didn’t work in one room, and the sink didn’t drain in that same room. Our second room didn’t have these issues—it was clean, with comfortable beds—but overall, the problems were enough that I wouldn’t stay here again.
