The Ship Motel

We stayed there two nights on the lower level. Kristina, the manager was good to deal with, Kayla was very pleasant in the phone, all the people hanging out around the office outside were also very pleasant. Kristina was there our entire visit and if you needed anything she was on it! Fresh coffee is put out on a cart in front of the office every morning and ice is available in the office. There is no housekeeping services between days (we actually don’t mind that at all) but you can get fresh linens every morning before 9am. Location is amazing! Park your car and don’t use it again! Free parking is a plus too! We had two doubles, the rooms are tiny but we weren’t in there for anything except to sleep. We pushed the two beds together so move away from the wall and AC - worked great - then put it all back before leaving. There was a musty smell in the room and the ac is quite loud - loud enough to drown out hubbys snoring so I didn’t mind lol The tv is small if you plan on watching it often - we didn’t. The room is in much need of repair and updating. It’s old and tired. The rooms are clean though and I check the mattresses wherever we go- all good and no bugs!! We cleaned up really well as there are garbage bins super handy. You can’t beat the location, the staff and honestly for the money and as much time that we were in there, we would stay again! Check out my other reviews for places to dine!

The rooms well lighted, with plenty of plugs. The AC and frig were cold. Everything was clean and we had fresh towels every day. No coffee in the rooms but the office provided plenty of hot coffee each morning. They also had hot water and you could use their Keurig machine. Ice was plentiful and free in the office. The rooms were a bit small with two large beds but we had plenty to do outside and the rooms were quiet to sleep in. The staff was friendly and helpful. The facility was well maintained and the flower beds beautiful. I would highly recommend a stay at the Ship Motel.

I have no idea how this place has got the score it has. As you drive up, the first impression is good. Nice flowers and a clean looking place, there it stopped for me. The greeting might as well have been a shrug of the shoulders, it felt like one. The room was small and cluttered with furniture, that made what little space was available, unusable. We were greeted with the normal post Covid sign ‘To protect YOU, there will be no housekeeping’, when is this limp excuse going to stop. There is no tea or coffee in the room, it is downstairs by the office. In our case at the bottom of the very steep and dangerous stairs (especially when carrying a suit case). This was the place everyone congregated to drink coffee, talk and smoke. If you are upstairs in the first 2 or 3 rooms, be prepared to be kept awake or woken by either inconsiderate guests or even worse cleaners (or possibly manager) waiting to do the rooms. They start congregating, smoking, drinking coffee and chatting about 6am. A good point is the position of the motel in the middle of town, but it sorely needs a serious look at customer care or even an acknowledgment there are any guests there at all
