We would stay here again!
We loved our rooms at John Yancey! They were spacious and included a microwave and small refrigerator. The beds were quite comfortable. The continental breakfast was wonderful, offering juice, coffee, yogurt, bagels, toast, fruit, waffles, hard boiled eggs, cereal and more. The only problem we encountered was trying to get hot water. In the case of my room, it turns out the plumber who had recently serviced it had reversed the hot and cold water - so no matter how long I let the "hot" water run, I could not get hot water. In the case of my husband's room, he gave up trying to get hot water after letting it run for several minutes. It turns out that because we visited in the winter, during an especially cold spell and with very few other guests in the hotel, we needed to let the water run at least 10 minutes to allow the hot water to get through the pipes to us. Apparently this is not an issue when there is high occupancy in the hotel. The staff at the hotel were wonderful!

We will be back!
The staff (everyone of them) were kind and super helpful! My family was there during a sad and stressful time and the one thing we did not have any worry about was where we laid our heads at night. We are grateful beyond words for this. Thank you!

Room comfort
The room is spacious, nice, and has no carpet which I like. I have a nice view of the beach even if it is partial. Neighbors were noisy, slammed doors.

2/10 Poor

A once great hotel sadly is not anymore
Really going downhill. Uncomfortable bed. Bathroom needs major repair. Zero customer service - staff didn’t care. Breakfast room in the mornings out of food/coffee. Overall poor experience with no resolutions by staff.
