“Owners go out of their way to provide good service”

Reviewed 13 June 2013 NEW

Our party of 11 just returned from our trip at the Scottish Inn. When we first arrived I was a little unsure of this hotel. It is older and being near the water has some issues with rust. I thought the beds might be too firm, but I slept better than I have in some time. What really made this... More

Hello Amy, You spent 2 days here when I found you had car trouble and the distance some your family had to travel it was the least I could do, I normally don’t like to recommend a mechanic, but I knew this young man and asked him to help fix it that evening. I am glad things worked out for... More

“Nice place, good swimming pool.”

Reviewed 19 May 2013

We stayed there before a cruise vacation. The cool thing was that we were able to leave our car at the hotel for a whole week. So we did not have to pay at the pier for parking, which would be about $80. The pool is big and inviting. The harbor is right ahead that you can actually see from... More

“Very poor quality of hotel”

Reviewed 8 May 2013

I booked this hotel and paid a premium price for a one night stay. I was very disappointed with the room. The air conditioner and small refrigerator were very loud, the bathroom fan was so loud you could not hear someone talk standing next to you. The paint was pealing off the celling. When you turned on the water it... More

I have stayed at this hotel several times.
