First, Schooner Bay is actually right on Route 1. It sure can use some updates. The room was large but then we noticed it may have just seemed that way because there was no dresser. (Never seen that before.) The bathroom was crazy tiny. All this was heading for a 1 rating until breakfast. What an amazing home cooked spread. Could you just stop in for breakfast??

The good: Breakfast. The front desk staff - she was very helpful. It’s dog friendly. Charming nautical decor. That’s all I can say for the good. The bad: our room stank of old, stale cigarette smoke. The carpet was old and dirty. Tiny bathroom with old toilet and bath. No lightbulb in one of the lamps but no matter, there was no outlet to plug it into. Shades don’t block out light so room was bright all night. Thin ceilings - the woman on the floor above us was letting her dogs jump on and off the bed all night and while she was showering in the morning and it was LOUD. Slept poorly as a result of that and too much light from the parking lot. Bed was clean but we found a pair of dirty socks in o e drawer and a long black hair on the bathroom floor. Won’t stay here again.
