Westerly Motel

The Westerly had everything I needed and I hope to stay there next time I am at Ocean Shores.

The pictures and condition of this property are in no way indictive of the current condition. I imagine they were taken when the property was refurbished many years prior. It was in general disrepair, window screens broken or missing, doorknobs and locks that appeared to be cheap and unsecure and that was without access to see the condition of the actual rooms. It is operated by Days Inn down the street, that is where the amenities (pool, spa, continental breakfast) are located and there is no one on site to check in or provide assistance. We arrived pre-check-in to find some people drinking and smoking in close proximity to where our room would have been located. We traveled to Days Inn and asked to see a room and the reception desk told us there weren't any available to look at, that the cleaning crew was delay and that the room would not be available until after the posted time. After additional consideration, we decided to forego our stay. I attempted to receive a refund but was told to no refunds, no exceptions. This property is totally unacceptable base on the pictures represented and one would be wise to consider other options. It's a very poor business practice to refuse a refund based on the conditions being different than what is represented. It appears to be a quaint older motel, we found it to be anything but.

This was a great little place. The kitchenette was better supplied than a recent Airbnb I stayed in. The place was down to earth and cozy with soft sheets with blue designs and a quilt on the bed. It felt very comfortable and I wished I could stay longer. The proprietor has a check-in time range but made accommodations for my late arrival. Place has been remodeled and they allow pets. I recommend this place and would stay again. It was a good value and is a local business.
