2 star hotel. Front desk wasn't helpful. Asked where to get clam chowder and the front desk said, " I don't know what that is..." The area is KNOWN for clam chowder. Room was super basic. I asked for a quiet room, and they put me on the corner next to the street. Only 2 other cars in the parking lot.

Close to the beach, clean room. They called me the second day to ask if we needed anything! There aren't really any amenities or even a waiting room, but the space was great for the price we paid.
