The view from our room was incredible! Jimmy was very helpful in navigating the stairs with our mountains of stuff. The room was comfortable and clean however, whatever cleaning agent they use smells horrific. The only other complaint was that the hot water was fairly iffy, but I understand it’s an older building and that may happen. Overall, I would definitely return as we enjoyed our stay immensely. Being able to walk downtown and various dining options and the beach all in one was great!

We had the best time at Inn on the blues! The owners are wonderful! Everyone in town loves them. It is true that if you want to go to sleep before midnight on weekends, this may not be the place for you, but we loved everything about this place and will be back!

The sunset suite was wonderful. Great location and loved the balcony’s off the living room and bedroom. My two issues were how limited and confusing parking was. Nothing to put on your car and you’re crammed into this small lot making you scared to leave the spot if you had to. Also water pressure and temperature was terrible in the shower. The music from the bar down below is quite loud however I knew that going into making my reservation. I would definitely recommend this place and would stay there again. Wish I had discovered this place years ago rather than staying at other properties nearby

Excellent location. Room was clean. Parking was tricky - tiny lot behind hotel/restaurant shared with staff. Repeatedly trapped in space, had to call front desk to move cars around. Restaurant/bar open late. Dance club and karaoke— which is amazing for adults, but not for staying there with kids. Would def return as the location was great for the beach and downtown.

Charm, Location, Clean!

Check in was a little confusing but everyone was so nice! (We had to find the host at the restaurant). That said, the room was cozy, comfortable and SPOTLESS clean! This is an older building with New England charm that is beautifully clean and lovely. Location cannot be better, as it’s right in the commercial center of York. We ate at the restaurant twice and everyone was lovely. Will absolutely recommend this Inn!

Jimmy was the owner and very very helpful. I highly recommend it.! He also owns property on Long Sands Beach. I think it's a Grand Motel? I'm hoping I can get information on that.

Excellent Location; Decent Lodging

Quaint inn with an excellent location, steps away from the beach. The room was comfortable and a generous size and the restaurant below was great. However, the cleanliness could have been improved. Upon checking in, the floor was sandy, there was a stain on the bedding, and we had many ants/spiders in the room throughout our stay.

This place is all about location. It's directly across the street from Short Sands Beach. They have dining and a couple floors with full bars. Sometimes there's a few minute wait because they're busy but I got a table immediately. It can get loud but laid back vibe which is cool with me. Again though, the location sells it. Definitely recommend.
