The place was a little old and needed some renovation but it was extremely comfortable and very clean. The manager was above and beyond in making sure we were comfortable. We’d stay there again

This accommodation was advertised as the Dolan Inn & Suites at 168 W River Rd with a photo of a charming two-storey house painted yellow with a white balcony. There is no building matching this description at this address. Instead we were given a room at Dolan’s Motel (132 W River Rd) a few doors down. As we arrived late at midnight in a storm, it was a scary experience to try to figure out why there was no one at the address on the reservation. The motel manager was not at the motel and just left a key in the door to our unit (not in a lock box) so anyone could have entered the room before our arrival. The Expedia listing clearly pictured the Inn & Suites building but there is a run down empty house at the listed address. The motel was definitely not worth the rate charged (photo attached). This felt like a bait and switch and we will be requesting a refund from Expedia. We do not recommend booking with any Dolan property.

This was off season and not really kept up. The room was ok, but was clean. Best reason to stay was the short distance to the ferry.
