Ok stay
Older beach hotel which would benefit from some TLC. Great location on ocean blvd. Room was small but comfy. I did not see any staff during my 2 day stay, no housekeeping which is not unusual these days.

I arrived after dark. Free parking lot was hard to find in the dark and very small with cars parked close together behind a pizza place. No gate or attendant. Room was clean. No conditioner or hair dryer. Microwave & frig in the room came in handy.

Location was the only good thing
Location was convenient, right on the Hampton strip. Room had loads of peeling paint and broken door frames. No hot water. Patio door was broken and not lockable. VERY limited parking, we had to pay in other lots to park our vehicles. Lots of furniture in the hallways, maybe a renovation is underway? It worked for our quick overnight.

Really bad first impression, hard to find the entrance, dirty carpet, messy lobby, feels unsafe. The room was fine, clean, with everything there: a fridge, a microwave, tv, comfortable beds, little balcony with the ocean view. Tiny bathroom, you have to wait for the hot water, but it was not really hot but just warm. Basic breakfast, very small parking. The room was fine and I had a comfortable sleep, but would not stay again.

For the price per night it was not a good value, walls are paper thin, two flights of stairs to get to the rooms. There is no parking and for the price to have to pay for an overnight spot was extra. Very out dated decor and tacky decorations. Was really not impressed with the owners, they never asked any questions no mention of good things to do or dining or even offer info about the accommodation. For 300 a night it wasn’t even balcony side. Will not be staying there again. No extras were included in that high price for one night.

Not as advertised- queen was a double bed. Pull out couch? Well there wasn’t room to pull it out to even try. Pictures using a fishbowl lens…. I should have known better. Coat rack falling off wall, slider to 3” wide doesn’t open but 1/4 of the way… because the room is leaning to the front of the building. Bathroom was clean, bonus. Otherwise, room was about 8’x8’. Dark,dingy. $300 a night? They should be ashamed.

The Moulton is the definition of New England hospitality. A 100 year old hotel that is clean and well furnished with new mattresses and crisp linens. Care is given to make the whole space feel relaxing. The location is ideal, and the AC works great. The staff is amazing and treats everyone like family. In fact, the entire hotel makes you feel like you are family. The common area is comfortable and inviting. Complete strangers gather there nightly to visit and share the ocean view. Thank you to the wonderful family that runs the hotel, we had a better vacation for having stayed at the Moulton.

Never again
Small hotel kinda thought that no hot water for showers told the gentleman up front he said should be all set. Ice cold showers 2 days. Had to move microwave to find an outlet to use it no outlets anywhere really to charge things floors looked very dirty and at almost 300 a night I expected a little better. Might as well not have a balcony I’m a little heavier 330 pounds I couldn’t make it to there bed was in the way my kids 13-15 said it was tight out there and the brackets for railing was falling off. Good luck

Convenient location with oceanfront balcony
The location was perfect, as we were there for the seafood festival, friendly staff, clean. Hotel rooms could use a bit of an upgrade - the lock on the door was falling off, the bathroom towel and toilet paper holders were rigged up with a piece of wood, one bed was very comfortable, the other was sunken in and squeaking. Balcony was nice to sit out and enjoy the view but only fit 2 chairs facing each other.

The only good thing about this property is location, right across is the beach. Other than that, the property is almost ran down, receptionist didn’t speak English, so hard to communicate. The “free parking” ad, is very misleading, not clear. My guests ended up paying $10/night, when I told them that it’s free parking. And last, for the money I paid, I could have gotten much better accommodation. Had a chance to check the are; now, I know better.

Apparently you reserved a small room with one queen bed we do have larger occupancy rooms two queen beds sofa beds and Jacuzzi tub it’s all depends on what you like to reserve number two we do not provide parking at all so if we did give you a parking spot as a courtesy you should thank us for that that you did not have to pay

Great staff; old and outdated accommodations.
Hotel staff was very pleasant. Picture of room not at all what room looked like (was very small and cramped; hardly enough room to walk around). Was a bit of bait and switch.

First off the parking is not guaranteed. so you may or may not have a parking space reserved for you. I did have one the first 2 nights but not the last 2. I had to park on the beach where it was free from midnight to 8am and then get up early and find a space. When I called at midnight to explain this I was told there was nothing that they could do. They did find me a parking space and I got a $100 ticket for parking there. I would say that the place was clean but it is just so old and needs major updating. Bad paint job and bad dry wall in the bathroom. The shower was really small and not all that powerful. The AC unit worked great for the first 4 nights and had some issues that last night we were there. The free breakfast wasn't that bad either. There was also a communication barrier at times. My wife said that the toilet was backup up and she was given toilet paper. Then after explaining that she needed it plunged out, she was given a plunger. Not what we expected. Also the picture is a bit deceiving as the room was very small. This is not the what it is like. I pretty much has a bed and a sofa and not much room for anything else. Also, when we checked in, everything was unplugged so the ice that had built up on the freezer in the little mini fridge, melted all over the floor. I would say it was the cheapest but you do get what you pay for.
