Oceanview Inn

Oceanview Inn

8/10 Good
"Their hot water was out for two days and they said they needed a part for the system. They did give me a little discount for the inconvenience. They have a good breakfast. Pillowtop beds but I had to ask for extra pillows. They don't tidy the room daily so I needed to ask for towels and toilet paper. Overall it was a good place."

"The room was large and the beds were comfortable. The AC was useless so I’m glad we could open the window and get cool air. Breakfast was sparse, apples, cereal, bread, juice, coffee and tea. It would have been nice to have bananas and yogurt. However there were several great restaurants in walking distance. The staff were friendly and very helpful."

Lucky 7 Casino & Hotel – Howonquet Lodge

10/10 Excellent
"Property is lovely, and the rooms were great. Updated walk-in showers, and nice bathrooms. Patio was spacious and perfect view of the ocean. Lots of parking. Staff was kind and even gave great coffee suggestion when asked where to get a good coffee in the morning. Close to beach front spots to chill, and enjoy a good sunset. Unfortunately we didn’t have time for the pool or hot tub, but it looked nice. Casino was clean, and had newer games. Blackjack table was only $5!! Chill vibes, and attentive staff. A little something for everyone. Restaurant was lacking, and wouldn’t go back. Customer service was non existent, and they will avoid you. No refills, no checking in after food had been delivered, and had to ask for our bill after sitting for a good amount of time. This was on a slow evening. Food was not good (steak, chicken fried steak, fettuccine Alfredo, pizza )Maybe it’s worth checking out their daily specials, or breakfast? Would definitely go back to the hotel and casino, hard pass on the restaurant."
