Reviews for Blue Dolphin Inn
Review 1:Bathroom window was broken, it was chilly & it wouldn't close
Review 2:Friendly staff, clean room, bigger than we thought...would return if we go back to Wellfleet
Review 3:Room needed to be vacuumed better . Behind the beds were spiders. Screen door was broken.
Review 4:Nice area. Friendly staff. Love the breakfast place next door.
Review 5:Satellite TV didn't have clear reception and there was no PBS channel.
Review 6:Nicely maintained property. Clean rooms. Nice pool. Friendly staff. I liked the opening at the back of rooms looking out onto treed yard.
Review 7:Not much really. Everything was pleasant. Maid service could have been more frequent I suppose
Review 8:This place was really a nice place for the price. We were pleasantly surprised when we checked in. They seem to be going thru some changes with a new drive way. I hope it's the start of other things. The bed was very comfortable.
Review 9:The bathroom. It needs a new bathroom. The bath is very old and the paint is peeling. It looks discussing. The facet need new one in the shower. There a whole under the sink.
Review 10:The bed
Review 11:Loved that you could sit out back and feel like you were all alone just enjoying the outdoors. The help staff was so friendly and check in was quick and painless.
Review 12:There was no breakfast, which wasn't such a big problem given how economical the price was for this last minute booking.
Review 13:The staff was extremely polite, helpful and very pleasant. The facility is clean and it's not far from Ptown. For free wifi and ample parking, we found it to be very reasonably priced.
Review 14:It's not close to the beach, or to most shops & services. However, it is almost directly across from the Wellfleet Drive-in, which runs a pretty good flea market four days a week.
Review 15:Wish there was breakfast but the cost was low and that was nice
Review 16:My parents, my brother and his family and our family came for 3d. I enjoyed sitting outside in the shade and visiting. It was beautiful to watch the birds. We even saw a squirrel mother moving her babies to a new nest. We love the shuffle board. My 83 yo dad can play while the kids swim.
Review 17:Oh there's just so much! I witnessed the cleaners NOT changing bed sheets and blankets to clean ones. The outlet in the bathroom didn't work so I wasn't able to do my hair to my liking. The fridge was far too small and leaked. There was a booger and a pink soap looking spot on the inside shower curtain which tells me that those also are NOT changed and cleaned regularly. The toilet didn't fully flush. Our outside light was the only light not working. The pool was a great distance from our room. There was no complimentary breakfast when there really outta be for the price of the rooms!
Review 18:I only liked the friendly front desk staff and the cleaners.
Review 19:Ac froze up,no hot water, poor cable tv,ice and garbage far from room, broken screen door
Review 20:Patio, ease of parking,nice cleaning staff, sufficient, no frills
Review 21:No complaints at all and I'm the kinda guy to let you know if there were any.
Review 22:Beds surprisingly comfortable. Fridge in room. Ice machine avail for cold beers. Excellent pool facilities. Staff very friendly. Great breakfast spot right across parking lot next door. Bike trail right there. Fantastic Beaches short drive. Drive inn theatre close. Price was also right
Review 23:Upgrading the mattresses would be a good idea in the future, it wasn't bad but it wasn't good either.
Review 24:I needed a late checkout to get ready for my wedding that afternoon and they were so friendly and accommodating. Also shuttle bus brings you right to Provincetown for a couple buck, picks you up right next door at Maurice's
Review 25:The overall appearance of the buildings were a little sad. Definitely in need of some paint. Our room was not locked up after the cleaning lady went through, but luckily I thing was missing. No breakfast included.
Review 26:The accommodations in the room were nice. The bed was big and comfy. The towels were replaced by the second day of our stay.
Review 27:upon Checkin, "Management" did not seem overly friendly; However, the staff (cleaning, etc.) was helpful and wonderfully friendly at all times.
Review 28:The place maintains its "Cape Code Route 6 Motel" aura, but has been recently freshened up a bit (with new TVs and a stylish coat of paint). Having stayed in almost all of the motels in this area at one time or another, I would rate this among the top 3.
Review 29:The only issue was that our refrigerator was broken.
Review 30:The location is great and the back patio area was a nice addition for outdoor leisure time. The breakfast place next door is great also.
Review 31:needs a better road sign...hard to see at night
Review 32:comfort of the room and the location of the motel...very near good restaurants, coffee shop, flea market and entrance to the national park...breakfast next door to hotel is excellent
Review 33:Never saw any staff beside house keeper do any work. Our room needed work done.This is our 8th visit and each year it's a little more worn down.
Review 34:Not near the road so you can't hear traffic.House keeping was excellent.
Review 35:The toilet ran a little and the battery in the fire alarm beeped when we arrived. The battery was replaced when we went out and we didn't have to ask. So that was a like.a
Review 36:Accommodated our early arrival without hesitation. Comfortable and clean facility.
Review 37:Refrigerator in room "ran" all night. We reported it to owner & she was happy we gave her the info & said she's switch it out.
Review 38:Location and price
Review 39:Large group of college kids drinking and parting all night. Paper thin walls. Management did not care about our right to have quiet for sleeping. Terrible experience! I would not recommend.
Review 40:Location was good, beds were comfortable. Older rooms but adequate.
Review 41:No restaurants near by (we were there at the end of the season) Pool was not in use Colour scheme was drap Some road noise
Review 42:Rooms were comfortable and clean. Good showers Beds were comfortable Wi-Fi was excellent. Rates very reasonable Good location
Review 43:Bathroom, great tubs to soak in, not just stand ...!!, lighted living space, comfortable chairs to relax, décor tasteful, privacy, patio, prox. to bike trail.
Review 44:no complaints......................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Review 45:Room is renovated and very clean. TV works likeit should, excellet quality of WI-FI. This is mt fourth trip to Cape Cod and this hotel was the best by far
Review 46:Don't eat next door at the restaurant. It's advertised as a buffet but there are no sneeze guards or sanitary precautions. People were leaning and talking over the food.... GROSS!
Review 47:It served it's purpose for a value. We just really needed a place to sleep and shower. Most of our trip was out and about. The office staff were polite and they honored our wish to have nobody enter our room, as we cleaned the room ourselves. We prefer not to have strangers in our room. I have stayed in better places, but this wasn't bad.
Review 48:Basic rooms partially refurbished, comfortable and clean. Nice lower Cape location, 6 miles from Weelfleet Harbor, easy commute to Truro and Provincetown. Convenient to a dozen beaches ; a quick ride to Orleans. Motel is right on Rt 6, but sits on a large , wooded parcel of land which creates sense of privacy. Excellent accommodations for the low price.
Review 49:Staff was very pleasant and helpful. Great location near the movie theater and mini golf course. Price was very reasonable and the room was clean and comfortable. Highly recommended.
Review 50:The drainage in the toilet was very slow and there was a high pitched whistling noise that happened I guess when other nearby guests were using the shower. I did not like the food at the restaurant at all. Did not realize that you had to do the buffet. Not a good deal for us because we are not big eaters. It was as expensive as lunch for the two of us.
Review 51:I liked the fact that the room was pretty spacious. It was fairly quiet where we were placed and I gather a lot of the rooms were not rented out. I liked the owner's wife or maybe she is the owner herself. Nice personality as was Doreen who was one of the house keepers.
Review 52:The lock was sticky on our door. We were only there one night so didn't call it to the attention of the staff. Breakfast place next door is good if you like a huge breakfast, but it's hard just to get a simple breakfast.
Review 53:A modest but very neat, clean and simple but tastefully furnished place. Good location near Wellfleet Audubon property--a lovely place to visit--and the bike path. Pleasant staff. I would definitely stay there again.
Review 54:The whole facility is just a bit tired, but functional and OK. One ice machine near the office. No hair shampoo or conditioner.
Review 55:Price was almost OK in a high priced area/Cape cod.
Review 56:Instead of making the beds, replacing towels and emptying waste baskets, the maid would meet me in the parking lot to ask if the room needs cleaning. I had to ask for towels and bring the trash out to her.
Review 57:The room was clean. Motel was close to everything without being in the middle of Cape traffic.
Review 58:Most rooms were updated but ours were not. Bath was clean but worn.
Review 59:Great location! Close to beaches & good restaurants. We used the outdoor pool a lot during our stay and found the pool to be well maintained and the pool area to be very clean. Our room had a private outdoor sitting area -- perfect for sipping a glass of wine. Staff was very helpful and let us into our room before check in time.
Review 60:The beds were VERY comfortable along with the pillows!! Did not wake up once during the night as I usually do at home! We booked the Blue Dolphin for three nights and we enjoyed our stay.
Review 61:Very run down, when repairs were made, not done properly. You just keep looking for bugs, as doors do not close properly. Light comes in around door so..... Really sad:-(
Review 62:Nothing
Review 63:Our shower head broke during our stay- but was replaced that day; some of our towels were stained.
Review 64:When our shower head broke it was fixed within hours. Coffee maker in the room.
Review 65:Kind of dated, patio off room not swept, furniture not clean outside.
Review 66:Very clean, pool area well maintained, staff very nice, bed comfortable, maids did a nice job of cleaning. Good price for the amenities and location was great!
Review 67:I really liked the value for what we paid. Very clean and very convenient. We were heading to see family in Truro, so it was 20 minutes away. We will stay here again!
Review 68:The staff was not attentative. For instance, the weather was not so great, and the day we were leaving it was gorgeous. We followed the weather reports the day before and went to the office to ask for a later checkout. The gentleman behind the desk said we needed to speak to his supervisor who would be back by 7:00 pm. We went to dinner and did a little shopping, by the time we got back it was 8:30 pm and we stopped back in to the office. The gentleman said his supervisor wasn't there yet and we asked if she could call our room when she got there. Needless to say no such call was ever made and I'm sure the gentleman was a big part of that motel, he could have told us. I've been to this motel for the last 4 years, and I most definitely will not go back, it has changed quite a bit and is beginning to show its age. We were very unhappy this year! The grounds were in disarray - they had a volleyball net up but the lawn hadn't been cut in a while and that certainly made it look unappealing. The pool was clean but we couldn't use it because of the weather. On a scale of 1 to 5, I'd rate this motel a 2
Review 69:Bed was very comfortable
Review 70:The room was NOT clean: a few spiderwebs and a carpet of dust on the lamp by my bed.
Review 71:This was the nearest motel to Boston available for a weekend trip to the Cape. I asked for a quiet room, and I did get the room furthest from Route 6 (yet, how quiet can it be).
