    The location is fantastic, right across the street from the beach and just steps from the shops and restaurants at Short Sands. We have visited York many times, so we didn't need much assistance, but check-in was easy. It was completed at the hostess stand, and a staff member escorted us to our room, Sunrise #2. This property is more of an inn than a traditional hotel, offering a smaller, more personal experience. Parking was available in a small lot behind the building, and we had no trouble finding a space. The rear exterior could use some updating, but it did not affect our stay. Our room was located above the restaurant. There was music in the evenings, which didn't bother either of us, but travelers who are sensitive to noise may want to keep that in mind. Our room was clean and modern, with ac, and the shower had plenty of hot water. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and would happily return. The location and comfortable accommodations made it a great home base for a York Beach getaway.

    We loved the location. The staff was very pleasant. The rooms were clean and bright. There wasn't enough storage space. The bathrooms were very small and it would have been really helpful to have a medicine cabinet to store toiletries. There was plenty of space in the room for a dresser to be able to store clothing, etc. It would have been great to have blackout curtains as well.

    Location was everything! Room was updated, comfortable and tidy. We attending a wedding and our welcome event was here the night before the wedding so it was so accessible. Would stay again. Great for couples Limited hot water and low pressure. Desk chair broken, blinds broken. Not family friendly. No front desk- self checkin and you hd an actual key to the room.

    The view from our room was incredible! Jimmy was very helpful in navigating the stairs with our mountains of stuff. The room was comfortable and clean however, whatever cleaning agent they use smells horrific. The only other complaint was that the hot water was fairly iffy, but I understand it’s an older building and that may happen. Overall, I would definitely return as we enjoyed our stay immensely. Being able to walk downtown and various dining options and the beach all in one was great!

    There was no kettle or proper cups. The floor was a little sticky and the room was sparse.

    Room was very nice, clean. Extremely limited parking, blocked by others vehicles. Very noisy until 1 am on a Tuesday night. Convenient to Short Sands beach.

    Close proximity to the beach The bathroom could have been bigger

  • Engine customer Aug 2025

    Location unbeatable. Live music until midnight each night, quite loud in the room but maybe the top floor rooms don’t have this issue as much.

  • Engine customer Jul 2025

    We had the best time at Inn on the blues! The owners are wonderful! Everyone in town loves them. It is true that if you want to go to sleep before midnight on weekends, this may not be the place for you, but we loved everything about this place and will be back!

    This is not really an inn; it is a restaurant/night club

  • Engine customer Jul 2025

    More privacy from the windows would be nice not just curtains but blinds. Also would be good to let people know about the sets of doors on this room when they stay with kids. Kids could exit from the bedroom or the living room not just the main door. I wish there was a dresser also. No where to put clothing besides hangers so we had to live out of suitcases. Harder for a longer stay

    Great spot for a beach getaway.

    Close to shopping and the beach Loud music one night until 130 am

  • Engine customer Jul 2025

    The location is right across from beach. We parked our car and did not use it til it was time to go home. Staff and owner of the Inn were very friendly and welcomed us as if we were family. Very accommodating to all their patrons. . Honestly nothing. Wish mother nature was as accommodating as the Inn was but still didn't stop us from enjoying our stay

    The decor, location, comfort and view. No mirrors in the bedrooms. Only one bathroom far from main suite.
