The unit was clean and the bed comfortable. Check in staff was very friendly and efficient. The popcorn machine was a nice touch. Unfortunately the walls are poorly insulated. All voices and walking was clearly audible.

Lots of parking, staff was very friendly and welcoming on check in, room was recently renovated and it was comfortable and clean. My only hesitation in giving 5 stars is the location so close to busy Island Hwy. I kept the blinds drawn at all times for privacy and to help block out the traffic noise. With only one window, I felt somewhat claustrophobic. Having said this, The Tides Inn was perfect for my one-night stay and I would go back again.

Highly recommend! I was surprise at our room! So spacious, updated. We had a free upgrade to a king bed. Loved that! Perfect for families. Mini golf right next door. Pub a few hundred feet away. Grocery store 5 minute drive. Walk to the water front - 3-4 minute walk. Can’t wait to come back in warmer weather. Staff super friendly. We stay at a lot of hotels and I can sometimes be a little picky. I can’t say enough good things about this motel. Wish we could have stayed longer ♥️

Stayed for 1 night. Super clean, staff was great, reasonably priced and the free mini golf was a huge bonus. Would absolutely stay again.
