Whetstone Bay Lodge Room 1 - Sleeps 2 · Whetstone Bay Lodge Room 1 - Sleeps 2

We stayed here during a stretch of extreme heat, and unfortunately, our experience was very disappointing. While the basic housekeeping seemed okay and the motel has an older, rustic charm, the room's air conditioner was completely unable to cool the space—to the point where it was actually warmer inside the room than it was outside. Because the room was not comfortable or safe for a full night's sleep, we had to leave in the middle of the night and find alternative accommodations, ending up not staying for our booked three nights. On Day 2, management did offer to switch our room, which we appreciated, but since we had already found somewhere else to stay, we politely requested a refund for the remaining nights. Unfortunately, our follow-up messages regarding the refund were never answered. Given the extreme heat issues and the lack of communication on the refund, we wouldn't feel comfortable returning or recommending this property in its current condition.

For an old building, and in a very small town, doing the best they can. Positive: Location good. No breakfast offered. Bed was comfortable. Negative: Vacuuming not done well. Some small rocks on floor behind door. Dusty around walls. Otherwise bathroom clean, linen, towels clean. Rooms and bathrooms are very small. However I know the motel is old, old and enlarging would reduce numbers of rooms.

Only book a night at a time since the cancelation policy is strictly enforced

A good experience with the self-service check-in and check-out. Just a bit small in the room. Positive: Location was great. The downtown bar had good food and was entertaining. The close-by breakfast restaurant was great. Negative: Needed a bit more space along one side of the bed.
