Disappointing
I've stayed here years before and it was so much better. The check-in service took forever and us having to come back multiple times. They first gave us a room that still wasn't cleaned. Bed a mess, pizza boxes on the table, etc. Just was not a good stay compared to years before and especially for the price of one night.

Overnight w/ late check-in.
All in all, a pleasant and peaceful experience. Chosen for location as much as for the property's unique history, CVH is a place I would gladly recommend to others. Don't expect a lot of frills but do expect a quiet and charming environment. Waking up to the sounds and scent of the ocean can never disappoint. Late night check in was quickly provided by a friendly night manager via an intercom at the parking lot gate. Parking on site was reasonable and convenient. I'll be back.

The hotel is very quaint and we enjoyed our stay overall. The walk to the beach was the highlight. Walking distance to the town was a huge plus! The only complaint we had was the bathroom was very small and not as clean as it should have been.

the 2 things I did not like was that if you arrive before 4pm you were charged 30 dollars. they also did not say you have to pay 15 dollars each night to park in there lot. We paid over 700 dollars for 2 nights I think we should have had free parking.

The room was dirty and smelled bad the bed was behind a half wall so you couldn’t see the TV and the TV didn’t work. And the check in clerk wouldn’t even let us in the parking lot because she couldn’t be bothered on her ‘mandatory break! We will be asking for a refund from Expedia.

The main strength of this motel is its proximity to Shadowbrook restaurant, just a few minutes walking, perfect for avoiding driving after enjoying one of the restaurant's amazing wine offerings. The motel is also by the beach, but it is not on the beach, and any view from the ocean-side rooms is blocked by other buildings. There's a nice kitchenette, and everything was visually clean, but an odor of staleness permeated the room. The staff was friendly, but the nickel-and-diming policies were annoying.

As always a easy, nice stay. Super convenient. Friendly staff. Only side note is this new $15 a day parking??? What is that about? If you want to raise your rates, raise them but don't hide them in the "parking fee".

We stayed in room #133, which is the end unit right by the bridge and busy street. It was noisy because of the people/car noise, but the location was amazing! No views though. Spacious room with a gas fireplace. Pull-out couch with a 2nd bed in living room and another bed in the bedroom. Stove/oven was small, but big enough to cook on. Full-size refrigerator. Would stay in this unit again, even with the noise.

I didn't know where the office is. There isn't great customer service for the price you pay. You can leave a voicemail and no one will return your call. There's an arrow pointing to the office but it is not the office. Bad service and guidance overall. Views and to sightsee ok, but I would recommend staying somewhere else.
