Visited From 9-16-18 to 9-20-18. Omg this place is great! Stayed in the 2nd floor apartment unit with great views of Provincetown and the bay. Super clean, quiet, with All the amenities we needed. Minutes from the Atlantic Ocean, private beach, and restaurants everywhere. Not to mention pet friendly with K9 family members enjoying their stay as well. Thanks for a great spot. Will definitely sat here again when visiting.

Cozy beach motel. Clean, in good repair, and serviceable though shows a few laugh lines from weathering the coast since the '70's. Nice access to the bay side of the beach and easy drive to P-town.

Its nice, clean and cozy, but they don't do housekeeping every day. Also you don't have a view to the beach, you only have the walk way trail, to the beach.

Nice and quiet. Perfect location with private beach. Very clean and close to Provincetown. Don't take a taxi. There is a shuttle that runs into town every half hour for 2 dollars .Will definitely stay again.

Easy check in. Room was clean! Sheets and towels bright white. Allergies did not bother me which is a huge plus! A/c, coffeemaker, nice small fridge and freezer. Just wish they gave me two caffeinated coffee packs instead of one being decaf. Beware...beach full of seaweed and not raked
