ViewPoint Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great location."

Anchorage Inn and Resort

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel/resort is all about location. It's location is prime, right on long sands beach. All 3rd floor rooms have balconies that overlook the beach and ocean. The best sunrise in York is right outside your hotel doors. The 3rd floor rooms are a bit small and dated but we only slept there...too much to do around the area. Finally, the pool areas are fantastic. Service was top notch."

Ocean Sands at York Beach

10/10 Excellent

"Our room was super clean and had everything we needed. It was also renovated and modern looking. Cute modern mini fridge and tiny kitchenette with sink, microwave and Kurig with couple of k-kups - all you need for a few days stay. We loved our stay and I would book there again with no hesitation. Though couple of things I would change. Starbucks in the lobby- is open only till 11am. It would be great if it was available in the afternoon, like, let’s say, till 3 or 4 pm. Shower head- rain style- decreased already low stream pressure. Maybe something simpler would work better. No kitchen utensils or cereal bowls etc, so if you are planning to cook something- even in microwave- bring your own dishes. All in all - wonderful, we loved it! "

Inn on the Blues

10/10 Excellent

"Accommodations were very clean! AC was good. parking was good, but tight for 2 cars as we rented the 2 bedroom suite, so we had 3 couples in 2 cars. So, we were not sure how to park for 2 cars and needed to park one of the cars at another location. please leave spare garbage bags to use for the trash bucket in the kitchen as the trash started to overflow on the 3rd day of our visit. We used our shopping bags for the trash that did not fit in the trash bucket. Not a big deal, but it would be more convenient to have spare trash bags. Thank you. we would recommend staying Inn on the Blues to our friends. overall, It was very good accommodations."

The Cutty Sark Motel

8/10 Good

"The location for the hotel is fantastic, which justifies the price for the room, which is very simple ( but clean). The only true negative is that the bed was old and very lumpy, and the towels were small and very basic. The decor is dated, but that was not really an issue because of the amazing location and view ( and very nice staff)- BUT - they really need to address the comfort of the beds. It would be a reason why we would pick a different hotel next time."
