Bluebird Inn

Bluebird Inn

8/10 Good
"I have stayed at the Bluebird multiple times. It’s definitely a motel. No real amenities other than shampoo/cond/body wash in the showers. It is nice they have mini fridges and microwaves in each room. No a/c so be aware it gets stuffy in the room even w windows open. There is an overhead fan but it can only do so much. Staff is always wonderful. Tana was so helpful at check in. I love the location of the motel for convenience. Walkable to all of East Cambria. You could walk to West but it’s a hike. Beds are not super comfy so I wouldn’t stay more than one or two nights, honestly."

Sands by The Sea

Sands by The Sea

8/10 Good
"Staff was amazing and super helpful, the hotel we stayed at was a “sister” hotel of the Cavalier, not bad for the price. The property itself is a bit outdated, outlets were broken & loose making it hard to charge any electronics, but the plus is being a sister facility you are able to utilize all of the amenities of the Cavalier hotel as well."
