Inlet Lodge

If you’re looking for a cheap place to sleep, shower, and change clothes this is the hotel for you.

Pros: super friendly staff, room was clean, bed was comfy, location is right on the boardwalk which is super convenient. There are microwaves and mini fridges in the room which I didn’t expect so that was a nice surprise!

Cons: the place is run down, there’s really no other way to put it. stains in the carpet, the ceiling, everything looks a little dated everything smells a little musty.

I can hear my next door neighbor snoring in their room as i type this- is it a “family establishment”?no it’s a hotel under a bar with extremely reasonable rates. would i stay here again for a week long trip? no. would i stay here again for a last minute getaway with my husband? yes 100%.

Have been staying here for 10+ years. The staff is friendly and the rooms are quaint. There is no better place on the boardwalk that has better access to the tram and the beach.

I would PROBABLY stay again. I’ll start with the cons. If you’re looking for a nice place to add to your beach experience, this isn’t it. You check in at the bar, the motel definitely needs updates and better cleaning, see pics. No microwave, towels smell musty and are like dish towels. Super small room, musty smell. Shower door tracks are disgusting. Shower and toilet not cleaned very good at all. Hallways and room doors are so old and outdated, don’t seem secure. No steel doors, all very flimsy wood doors.

The pros are the location!! Right on the boardwalk by the action. The price is great. They let us park in their lot at like 12:30pm even though check in time was 3:00pm. Staff was nice upon check in. Instructions to get to the rooms seemed weird but it ended up working out. The little balconies on the back of the building were nice. The bed was clean and comfy, no bed bugs, surprisingly. I liked the nautical decor in the room, I feel like they’re trying. A/C worked wonderfully. TV/cable worked well, staff was nice. It was convenient to have the restaurant/bar in the same building. We had breakfast and the prices were reasonable. The bartenders were super nice. It was right next to the rides but we didn’t hear a thing which was great.

Would I stay again?? It depends. If it’s a last minute trip with my girlfriends, sure. If it’s a trip with my mom or daughter, no. From my understanding they only have one king sized bed room.
