Tides Inn at Stehli Beach

設施完善，老闆熱情，還給換了更一些的床

The Tides Motor Inn Stelhi Beach, Bayville, NY - Thursday, June 13, 2024 This Inn is not as advertised. Pulled in and appeared rundown with peeling paint, not just a little bit, but all over the building. There were cars in the lot that were packed with belongings and one that was stuffed full and broken down on the back of the lot. Walked into the office and noticed handwritten signs posted all over the reception windows about the various fees, including a per person/per day fee to use the pool and a notification that extended stay is limited to 28 consecutive days. Fees that are not noted on the website. A poorly written Guest Notification was given to us with instructions on how to access WIFI and the TV remote. Received only one key even though there were two of us. Pulled around to park and noticed a large group of people sitting around in steel folding chairs in front of their unit as well as people yelling in the parking lot. Approached our unit (#50) and the door did not appear sturdy and there was a gap between the door and the frame; something the security chain could not contain if someone forced their way through that door and evidence that the door had been previously pried open. Upon entry, the curtains were broken and held down by a rope. We did not feel comfortable with the security to stay and leave our car overnight. We returned the key to the desk and asked, despite no refund policy, would they reconsider. The desk person said there are no refunds. She then asked her manager and came back with, ‘We can offer you a bigger room’ We declined as that would not address our security concerns.

DO NOT STAY HERE! The Low Tide Motel is more like it. The room hasn't been cleaned and no towels replaced in 6 days. The manager told me cleaning and towels are by request only. As for the room, check the photos. When the mini window air conditioner turns on the lights dim. Don't turn the shower up too much unless you want to wade in the water. I just hope I don't get copd staying in the non-smoking room. Also if you do stay here you'd best bring an interpreter. There's not any motels nearby but the drive will be worth it!

We paid and left to stay somewhere else. We actually felt in danger! The place was filthy. Our first room stunk of smoke and the bathroom door was locked. The second room wasn’t much better. The sheets were stained. It was so seedy we didn’t feel safe.

Based on reviews, I was a bit nervous but unjustified. I mean, it's 70/ night, not the fricken Ritz. The room was clean & roomy. The bathroom was a good size. Beds were very comfortable. The motel is right by the water w/ some small shops nearby.

Outside unkempt with an empty bottle and cans around the "firepit" Check-in office stank of garlic/food and shelves and floors covered with random "stuff". Checked in by a scruffy man, who was actually sitting in the middle of the room, eating food from a plastic container balanced on a chair. No hello, please or thank you. The photographs show a Mexican restaurant onsite - there is not. The rooms the restaurant may have been in are locked with dark window coverings. Given a key, drove round to the first room allocated - right at the far end of the building, very dark entryway, under the fire escape. Opened the door to find a pitch black room with the light switch located on another wall (not by the door). Light dim. Room smelt musty and looked grubby. Back to the office to complain. Given another key to a different room - strangely this key had five different, old key fobs on it, mostly broken(??!!). Off to the second room - again, pitch black inside with the light switch on another wall - had to leave the door open to find the switch.. Light dim - found two more lights to put on. Still pretty dark. A very small, dirty window covered by a huge blanket (yes, blanket!) nailed to the wall, this blanket was covered by two sets of curtains - weird. The blanket hung almost to the floor and covered the aircon unit which was stuffed into the wall and held in place with protruding foam strips and duct tape. The main door entrance threshold was unfinished and dirty and there was a small hole in the bottom of the door. This door was damaged and dirty. The smoke alarm was actually chained to the wall and not on the ceiling. Old baseboard heating system that was falling apart and rusting. Loose wires/cables trailing on the floor. Circular table with broken legs/stand repaired (?) with decorators tape. Ceiling tiles coming away from the walls and ceiling, some held in place with clear sticky tape and some stained. Dirty cobwebs in the corners of the room.. Down the side of the TV (which was reasonably new) the cables were, again, trailing on the floor. The remote control was not clean. No tea/coffee facilities. No iron/ironing board. Bathroom/toilet - so small that the door almost touched the hand basin when open. The door and frame were badly damaged. There had been a door on the toilet area but that was gone. In the toilet area there was, again, baseboard heating that had fallen apart and was rusting. The walls were dirty and marked. The grouting around the bathtub was jagged and unclean. The shower head looked nasty! No hairdryer (although it is shown in the website photos as having them in the bathrooms). Free internet access is advertised - there was none. I couldn't even get a decent signal on my phone. Got in my car to see if there were any alternatives in the local area - the only thing I found was a Dog Hotel & Spa - in retrospect I would probably have been better checking in there - lol - it couldn't have be

We were awoken in the middle of the night by a fight in the next room. It got so bad we had to call the cops. We got our stuff and left immediately but of course the owner would not refund our money. Bottom line the place is GROSS, DANGEROUS, DISGUSTING, and the person running it is a VERY BAD MAN. Save your time. Just don't go!

Our friends went to stay here for a second time in a week and a half and once in the room they found a needle in their tissue box and a crack pipe hidden in the toilet paper tube! Place is dirty inside and out - not a safe place to stay. They had stayed here for a few days a week prior and it was “okay” lots of people just hanging around with doors open and inside all the rooms just looked dirty and sketchy. They came back to town and went to stay one more night out of convenience of the location and that’s when they found the needle and pipe in the room. Obviously after they had discovered this they left promptly and went elsewhere. Someone needs to look into this because this is wrong on so many levels.

Charming.Flashback to period 70s California beach community. Unique. Spacious King suite. Comfortable bed felt grandma cozy with great mattress and lots of pillows. Desk, bistro table felt like home.
