The Manager and her co-worker were extremely friendly and accommodating. They invited us to sit in the lobby, played music and provided refreshments! I absolutely recommend this place. We were stranded as the last ferry out was canceled and they made our night fun and memorable. Room was clean and comfortable.

8/10 Very good

The staff were extremely helpful and willing to go the extra mile. The main draw for me was walking distance to the Martha's Vineyard ferry. Hotels on the Vineyard in August -- if you have to ask, you can't afford it. I was in the older motel, so the bathroom was a bit cramped, which is way I gave 4 stars, but everything was spotless and there was good A/C. Highly recommended! ( oh, one more thing - unlike the big chain hotels, they sensibly have lightweight blankets in summer instead of giving you a comforter more suitable for the North Slope of Alaska in January.)

What a gem! Lovely, clean, close to so much, and remarkably nice staff. My daughter loved the pool.

Great experience. Everyone was super friendly and accommodating. They even went out of their way to allow me to leave my truck in the parking lot for an afternoon after my check out.

Great location - about a 10-minute walk to the Steamship Authority. Beautiful views of the bay from the rooms. Kindness of the staff also a plus.

Nice retro motel experience at a very clean and well maintained property with gorgeous views across the Vineyard Sound. Upon arriving, we just found ourselves taking in the view and chilling for the remainder of the evening. No need to go anywhere else! Bed was very comfortable. Becky was friendly and attentive and went to the trouble of calling us after checkout to let us know we had left something behind, which arrived carefully packaged at my house just a few days later. Her care and attention was greatly appreciated. Thank you!

A lovely motel with very clean comfortable rooms. Heated pool was awesome! Very conveniently located. Friendly owners and staff. The only thing missing is the exhaust fan in the bathroom.
