Dear Light House and Cottages Management, I am writing to express my disappointment with my recent stay at your hotel. For the price I paid, I expected a much higher standard of cleanliness and maintenance. Upon arrival, I noticed several issues with the room: - There were multiple bugs in the room, including mosquitoes, which is particularly concerning as I was traveling with my newborn baby. We did not even open the screen door, so the presence of mosquitoes was alarming. - The room had visible stains on the ceiling, unpainted sections, and chipped furniture, which created an unappealing environment. - The bedding was squeaky, which we could overlook, but the overall condition of the room was far below acceptable standards. - Lastly, there was a strange smell in the room that made our stay uncomfortable. Given these issues, I feel that the room did not meet the quality standards I expected, especially considering the cost. I hope you take this feedback seriously to improve the experience for future guests. As a previous guest here I have had better experiences in the past. I would appreciate it if you could address this matter promptly. Sincerely, Raymond Cruz-Sal

Never stay at Lighthouse Lodge & Cottages again.
The check-in time was listed as 4:00 PM, but when we arrived at 4:00, we were told that the room was not ready. We booked through Hotels.com and believed we had paid the entire total upfront. However, when we checked in with our dog, we were informed of an additional charge. To make matters worse, my credit card was actually charged more than the amount the staff mentioned, without any bill or explanation. The booking indicated that breakfast was included, but when we arrived at the hotel, we were told that it was not. Additionally, the reception lady, CJ, had an attitude that made the situation even more frustrating.

Nice room, Poor customer service
The room was spacious, only basic local tv channels. The Breakfast bag was disappointing all sugar items. Slow to respond front desk was not helpful when trying to book an extra night. They advised that I had to book online. Then the rate went up $80 more. When I shared this with them, they didn’t do anything about it.

Room is nice but don’t expect great service
The staff was hard to get ahold of. On our check out day we called at 10am to ask if there was anyway we could stay an extra 15 minutes past checkout time as we were still trying to get ourselves and kids together. The response was “just be out by 11:30”. And while trying to say thank you, we were hung up on.

I don’t like that fact that the description of the hotel tells nothing about half of the rooms having a sliding glass window with no screen and divided by a tree overlooking a cemetery. I think there should be at least a mentioning of that “little” detail. Plus the wood door frame had rotting and missing wood at the base of the frame where it meets the bathroom tile floor because the shower door had a missing/broken seal at the bottom of the door allowing constant water to spill out onto the floor. We used most of our allowance of towels just to keep the bathroom floor from becoming a flood plain and slipping hazard for the kids. Also both the window that can open and the sliding glass back door with the “view” of the ocean if you looked past the cemetery and people visiting their lost loved ones had no screens on them so you couldn’t even open them for a cool ocean breeze without bugs coming in. The mini fridge in both our room and my mother-in-law’s room had cut off temp control knobs preventing you from adjusting the temp. This sucked the most because the fridge was stuck on Luke warm. We tried to put left over chowder and chips in the fridge but ended up throwing them away due to the worrying fact of food poisoning. I can see they try so “set” the temp to save money but this “adjustment” ended up ruining our food because it didn’t even work at all. I think they should take fridges off their amenities list on their site if this continues. Also the remote didn’t work.

**Review for Lighthouse Inn and Cottages** I recently stayed at the Lighthouse Inn and Cottages and found the experience to be quite disappointing. Upon arrival at 4 PM on a busy Friday, the rooms were not ready. There was a line of 14 people waiting to check in, with only one staff member available to handle the process. This led to significant delays and frustration among guests. Despite the inconvenience, there was no compensation or effort to make up for the rooms not being prepared on time. The excuse given was that housekeepers had called in sick, which, while understandable, should not have impacted the guests' experience so drastically. The WiFi at the inn was spotty and slow, making it difficult to stay connected. Additionally, the cable TV provided was old and antiquated, lacking smart capabilities that are now standard in most accommodations. This added to the overall sense that the facilities were outdated and not well-maintained. The exterior of the property is also in need of significant repairs. It is run down and gives a poor first impression. However, if you stay in one of the cottages, a full-service breakfast is included, which was a bright spot in an otherwise disappointing stay. The breakfast was really good and a rare highlight of the visit. There were also issues with the plumbing in some units, where the hot and cold water were reversed, adding to the list of inconveniences.

Very disappointing
Room was spacious. Pool was lovely and heated. Apart from those 2 things the hotel was not worth the money we paid. View from window was mainly trees which were directly outside with a golf course beyond. People walking past could see directly into our room so we had to keep the blackout curtains closed. Continental breakfast consisted of a small sticky muffin, a small cereal bar, an apple and small bottle of apple juice in a paper bag that you picked up from reception by 10am where you could also get a free coffee. No tea or any alternative hot drinks available. There was no house keeping and our room was not cleaned for our entire stay. I had especially paid extra for continental breakfast and found the grab and go breakfast bags very disappointing and definitely not worth the extra money I paid. Overall a very disappointing experience.
