Anchorage Inn and Resort

Anchorage Inn and Resort

10/10 Excellent
"The absolute only negative was the families with small children, under 5, in the hot tub making it a bubble bath. Not only is that unsafe but uncomfortable to be squished in with toddlers in diapers. We were only able to enjoy the hot tub for 20 minutes, one night of 4 that we stayed."

10/10 Excellent
"We have stayed at Stone's Throw multiple times and we highly recommend it. The room we stayed in was on the smaller side, but big enough with a very comfortable queen bed. The room had a nice bathroom and both the room and bathroom were attractive and clean. We didn't really see any staff as they have contactless check in, however instructions and communication were good. Parking was convenient and near our room. I should also note that there was a small refrigeraror in the room. The long, expansive, sandy beach is right across the road from the hotel which was perfect. Another big plus is that The Stone's Throw restaurant is right next door. There is inside and outside seating. The menu is interesting. We had appetizers and drinks which were both great. Just to note though, the restaurant was closed on Tuesday and Wednesday during the time of our stay."

Long Beach Motor Inn

8/10 Good
"The room was very clean and well kept with plenty of room. Decor was quaint, sort of 1960's. It was well equipped including a stove, microwave, refrigerator and small kitchen table and also included dishes, utensils and pots and pans. There were 2 double beds that we found to be comfortable. We had an assigned parking spot right near our room. The beautiful long sandy beach is just across the road from the motel .There is also a restaurant across the road, a few hundred yards away (we didn't eat there, so can't comment). The hotel owner strongly encouraged use of the shower hoses upon return from the beach. I thought this was a great idea to minimize any tracking of sand into our room. I would definitely recommend this fairly priced, clean motel."

"Rooms are small but clean. I would suggest removing the big plant so there is more room. Coffee was supposed to be ready at 8:00am but wasn't out until 9:00am. The hotel is right across from Long Sands and can be seen from the room. I would stay there again. There is coffee sold at the general store which is a very short walk."
