Nicely located, family friendly
This motel is in a great location between Long And Short Beach. It’s an easy family-friendly walk to either. The room was big, and included a kitchenette, kitchen table, and closet area. The motel grounds and room were clean. This motel could use some updating. The carpets are shag and it felt like stepping back in time. The check in is paper-based and takes a few minutes. These are not necessarily bad things, just items to keep in mind.

1960's throwback
The rooms decor was straight out of the 60's. The stove/refrigerator did not keep things cold, we did not use the stovetop. There was a stand alone dehumidifier that smelled and was on the entire stay. Beds were not comfortable. The room was clean but just smelled moldy.

Dear Guest, first thank you for staying with us and second I was more then happy to lift the 2 night minimum at your request so that your dog and family could spend a day at the beach. We were so sorry to hear Your 1 night stay in our pet room was not to your standard. The refrigerator has a dial from 0 to 9 9/ being the highest I could Have adjusted the dial for you if you had asked and the dehumidifier That is in the room could of also been shut down for the evening no request would have been needed for that. As for our Deluxe A/C efficiency pet room we are sorry for the beds they are slotted for a change very soon!!The other amenities including the rug is 1 year old and the new flooring that spans the entrance to the kitchenette and also in the bathroom was added at the same time The 42 in flat screen Television and over 200 channels on the Direct TV system I hope you enjoyed. and most of all i hope that your dog was happy and comfortable in our pet room and with you at the beach. sincerely, Adele office manager

Could use updating and seemed overpriced.
Carpet looked old as well the furniture and window coverings.

The location was the ONLY good thing about it.
While it had a good location close to both beaches that was the ONLY good thing about the motel. The room was severely outdated with pea green shag carpets, no doors on the cupboards, only one very small mirror in the room. The beds were VERY uncomfortable and the air conditioner was loud and made a popping noise all night long.

Dear Guests , We are sorry that the cabinet (storage unit) lacked doors we hope you found it orderly and clean as we check this area upon arrivals and it was according to the office as it should of been for your stay. As for the air conditioner it was brought attention to the that You preferred it remain on throughout your stay to maintain an colder temperature. The unusual constant use of the air conditioner may of been the reason for the popping sound you experienced. I will be checking the unit to make sure it it running correctly for the next guest . Thank you for your comments they will be taken into consideration. The staff at the Inn Between the Beaches

Lost our reservation!
Booked 2 rooms for a family vacation. Bookings were confirmed thru Expedia, upon arrival the Innkeeper said she had only one room reserved not two...upon further review she found both reservations, but did not have any room for us, she had overbooked. She sent us to a friends hotel which was horrible and it ruined our family's vacation.

The room had an odor and was damp and dirty. You could hear the people in other rooms

Dear guest ,I am sorry your stay was not as expected during your stay The office was open up to midnight to help correct any problems you may of experienced such as noise from other rooms. .House keeping was refused at the door daily, The housekeeping was at your disposable every day to come in and make beds, vacuum, clean bathrooms, take trash daily and change out towels. Basically to refresh so your return everyday to your room would be pleasant, as for the dampness you felt in the room it may of been that you could of had the air conditioner on the entire time of your stay 3 days ,drawing inside air(Humidity) inside and this could of very well been the reason your room may not have had a moment to equalize itself .

Nice stay with my dog!
I wanted to see if I could find a place to stay with my dog at York Beach, Maine for a couple of days. I did not think I would find anything last minute, but the Inn Between the Beaches had a vacancy. They have 1 room for guests with a dog. The room was clean and comfortable with a kitchenette. Thank you!
