Comfortable Night

Beautiful location on short sands beach in York. There was a storm during our stay, and the waves just across the street from the hotel were amazing. The hotel was very clean and comfortable and the staff were very welcoming!

Generally a nice visit.

Our stay was comfortable and enjoyable. The loaction was great and convenient. property was nice. Our only complaint was the room temp. It was very warm. The temp.outside was notnthatnworm but the room was hotneven though temp on thermostat was set at comfortable temp. air conditioner did not help cool room. In addition the AC unit actuallynhad front cover fall off in middle of the night, which was startling. Other disappointment was that on check out staff did not ask about our stay or if everythjng was okay. just took the keys and send your allset. with barely eye contact. There was not a lot of activity in the lobby at the time. We did however enjoy our stayand woyld go back.

Overall great motherday weekend.

Overall stay was great. Service was on point. We were there mothers day weekend. Wish we madenit for mother day brunch but my only gripe was they had only limited seating for families. When we tried to book was only for parties of 2. So our family of 3 couldnt go.
