Conveniently located, can see the boardwalk from the front porch!! More than enough room for 3 adults and 3 children. We arrived early (930am), planning to spend the day at the beach then check in. We stopped by the office to see if we could park at the location so we didn't have to move the car again, and to our surprise, they checked us in then!! Will definitely stay again and recommend to anyone going up to Hampton Beach.

It was the worse place I ever stayed at.
The stove and refrigerator were dirty . There wasn't a night stand next to my side of the bed so that I could read, until I got drowsy. There were no outlets next to the bed so that you could plug in a phone or sleep apnea machine. An extra towel bar is needed and a space to put toiletries in the bathroom. There was no place to hang a bathrobe in the bathroom. It was cold and there was only a spread on the bed; and we were told that we didn't need heat in the place. We had to move a chair to plug in the TV. The window was left unlocked and we were on the ground floor. The place needs a lot of work and the inside view of the place didn't look like the picture on the Internet. By the way, we ssupposedly got a an upgrade.

Dear Bernie and Jill, you were in the smallest, cutest apartment we have. If you were unhappy you should have told us while here. The floors are new just 3 months ago and there is a brand new refrigerator. Stove not dirty just getting old. Yes, all rooms in this unit are small and therefore there is not enough room for much, but it's cozy and quaint. You stayed with us on 9/9, too early to put the heat on. You could have asked for extra blankets. May I suggest next time you book one of the new condos 400-500 per night. Our rentals reflect the nostalgia that most people love about Hampton Beach. By the way, enjoy life :)

This is cute 3 bedroom cottage with a new kitchen cabinets and granite countertop. Is it an older cottage? Yes, like most places here, but it's clean. Clearly someone walked by and their dog pooped without picking it up. We are happy to take care of it. We care about our guests and our business. Thank you.

This was a last minute booking so our options were limited. The only bright spot was the location to the Seafood Festival. Upon entering the room, there was a pronounced smell of air freshener. The room is in dire need of a complete overhaul. Obvious signs of water leakage in bathroom and kitchen area. The beds were very uncomfortable to sleep on (soft and slanted). The remote control for TV did not work/ desk clerk said to find a volume we were comfortable with by adjusting on back of television. Definitely not worth the money we spent for one night. Would not recommend any of their properties that they own.

This following was sent to Expedia... Dear Rep: It was requested that I write you after speaking with a representative from Expedia. We had a customer that wrote a review that the owner says is defamation of the character of our business and is requesting that it is removed. We been with you many years and have not made such a request. This woman spent one night with us and wrote a nasty review. We are not a Hilton which she was expecting. We are a beach motel. We may be old but we are clean. We fix up as we go along as the money allows. There was nothing that was going to please and her review is unfounded. She stayed in a room that has new flooring and new paint. All rooms have new bedding and exterior doors. Very minor water damage under window. It bubbled the paint. We can't please everyone on bed softness and it is not slanted. We have 16 extra remotes for our tv's. She is not allowed to say she does not recommend any of our properties! She stayed in one! Please remove this from our reviews. Her name is Constance *****. She stayed 9/6.

The person at check in was very nice, but that’s the only positive thing about the hotel. The room was in very poor condition, with duck taped floors and broken floor pieces and mold in the shower. The beds were the worst beds we have ever slept in. Squeaky, uncomfortable that even a blow up mattress would have been better. The hotel is positioned across from a busy bar, so there was a lot of noise level till 4:30 am. The walls are paper thin that you could clearly here the neighbors talking. During seafood fest, the cost is doubled. So to pay $220 for this room was extremely disappointing. I never give poor ratings for a hotel because there are usually pros and cons about all accommodations, but this was completely the worst hotel we have ever stayed in.

Dear James, I am sorry that you one of the rooms that has yet to be remodeled but we are working on it. We have a lot of rooms that have been updated and we continue to update. It takes time. With a 2 1/2 month season and 12 months mortgages it is impossible to do all updates now. Our beds are not old, some like soft some hard, can't please everyone there. You rented a motel room, not an apt or house, so yes the walls are not as thick. A lot of people love Wally's and it does close at 1am not 4;30. Your review is your opinion and we are happy we have many, many happy customers. Thank you. We wish you well.

Dear Christina, Equipment fails. Our staff gave you another fridge to utilize. You know when I came to your room this morning that I turned the cold indicator and it started to run. Our guests are told at check-in if anything is out of sorts or you feel our housekeeper missed to let us know. You failed to do that. As we continue to update this old motel we hope people can realize we cannot do everything at once. Its is old but not dirty. We have a great team. Let's talk about the new doors and carpet on the stairs at the motel! We continue updating...it's a process. We are thankful we have many, many happy guests that understand that.

Choose this ONLY if you have no choice
You can feel every spring in the bed. There was no heat and yet the blankets provided were no thicker than 1 ply toilet paper. The added amusement of a shadless window insured the sun boils your eyelids and forces you out even when it's been a loooong night. Beats sleeping in a dumpster, but for the price it was really weak. The best part was Wally's pub right across the street

Dear "Anonymous", (we know who posted this). We had not received any complaints prior to yours as that bed was purchased 1 year ago. We double checked it and find no springs out of sorts. We do not put shades in our windows, we have blinds and curtains. Thanks for posting this egregious review! Please, enjoy life.

Across from a biker bar but we did not care. We just needed a place for the night. Walls have a lot of patch work. TV stand was the top of the fridge. If you just need a bed for a night, it works. If it were to enjoy a vacation keep looking. No issues with staff however!

Gotta love these Anonymous reviews and the character of those who do this. Our property is aging like all others at Hampton Beach. We do updates continuously, but as any other small business knows...money does not grow on trees. Our rentals are not dirty just some are outdated. You were told at check-in to let us know if our housekeepers missed anything to let us know so we can take care of it. You chose instead, to race to the internet. People like you amaze me at times! At any rate, we wish you well.
