    Fantastic hotel, really clean and well kept. Location is fabulous. Every member of the staff were fantastic and could not do enough for you. All very helpful and efficient. The pool area is beautiful and after a full days adventure it was lovely to come back and chill by the pool. Great that pool is open until 10pm too. We would recommend this hotel every time!

    great location, nice room and friendly staff.

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    It was a good stay at Mason Inn. Convenient location, pleasant staff. The coffee, cookies and fruit were a nice touch, as well as the welcome drink. I'm just not sure why you have to charge for parking? It's a small inn. Anyways, something to think about on my next visit. Overall, we were pleasantly pleased.

    The place itself is small and nice, the room appeared clean but had a dusty smell and I found 2 spiders. It was a nice room overall and the pool was nice but not sure if it’s cleaned daily. Staff was nice, overall it was a decent stay.

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    Nicely updated property in a good location - close to shopping and the water!

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    We loved how close this hotel is to the beach and pier!

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    If you are noise sensitive I’d say pack some earplugs as you never know what kind of neighbours you’re going to get. Only noise that bothered us was the AC unit in the room. They work well but are much too noisy for us. The staff mentioned that they are considering replacing with much quieter ones and that would make us return with a five star review. Perhaps skim the pool a little more often to keep ever present bugs in check. All told a great hotel.
