The room had a horrible smell, musty or moldy. The website showed a very different set up and was a little misleading. Maybe they are renovating but that one was bad. Area was nice outside the hotel. Just needed a bed and shower. For that, it worked

WiFi didn't work all weekend - I was told I may need to go out to a certain part of the yard to get a connection. Room was clean enough and the location was on Route 1, near the beaches, dining and shops but the old school loud heater/AC and the WiFi issue brought the overall rating down. Kind of a letdown considering the location and other options available.

This was your average motel. Anchor Inn is a two floor property with an outdoor staircase to the upper floor. Parking right outside the windows on the lower floors make it somewhat noisy, with car doors closing etc. The walls connecting each room seemed thin so your neighbors activity can be an issue!
