CHECK IN WAS NOT GD ,DOOR LOCK WAS A JOKE.Otherwise nice outdated property with a good breakfast!
Cute hotel in an easy to travel from location. Rooms were decorated tastefully (and wood floors which is always a plus in my opinion!) and plenty of parking.
Grounds were well maintained. Outdoor gazebo and nice pool with plenty of seating.
Older property with a typical Cape Cod feel. Not fancy or upscale but had all the basic amenities. Contactless checkin. No paperwork. Just a text before we arrived as to room number and door lock combination. Limited lobby hours 7:30am-10:00am. Very pleasant staff. No complaints.
Very nice, clean hotel. Staff were helpful, standard continental breakfast, no issues with parking. Wished the view was better (standard motel style with rooms around parking lot) and pool was open.
This is my 2nd stay there in a month. Nice cozy place! Well maintained and clean. Next trip down the cape i will stay there again. And prices are very reasonable!
We stayed for one night at the Escape Inn and thought it was great. Check in was easy, the room was very clean and the bed was comfortable. The property was quiet and pretty. Parking was free and easy and we enjoyed a swim in the pool. We did not partake in the free breakfast so I can't comment on that but all in all we enjoyed our stay and would come again!
Nice, clean, centrally located. The staff was very helpful. Breakfast was ok, the pool was small but clean. Not too much around of interest in walking so istance.
As an owner of a vacation property.. I know what it takes and this place has it.
Very clean tastefully decorated very comfortable, and the owners are great!
I will be back!
The property is well looked after and everything is catered for. Staff were really helpful.
Only issue was the unreliable WiFi which we managed to get sorted the following day. All in all a great stay.
