Reviews for Half Moon Motel & Cottages
Review 1：Rooms are a bit dated and behind some furniture wall were really dusty. Moved a bedside stand as there was no table and dust was hanging off the wall.
Review 2：We needed a small refrigerator and they really should have small microwaves then it really would have been perfect. Also if your young don't go there the crowd is much older and their is no music not even in the restaurants will a few had.
Review 3：Ms Katy was great and the housekeeping was awesome. The room was nice but it needs a refrigerator and microwaves in every room the hotels now days have all those amenities this was like a motel also thanks everyone who made it nice
Review 4：Nothing
Review 5：Very friendly staff they let us check in early, my son left his baseball cap behind and the mailed it back to me at a cost of 12 dollars to them i was truly impressed
Review 6：Really nothing that I see, everything was very confortable
Review 7：I like the cleanliness and the pool also the net covering the cottage so my pets can look around
Review 8：All rooms should have microwaves
Review 9：Bottom line...location location location...your in the center of Weirs beach. Great veiws watching sunrise in morning. Within distance to great comfort food..fun for family both kids and adults. Recommend highly for vacation with or without kids. Can't wait to go back
Review 10：This place is right on Weirs beach and has an excellent view The staff was extremely friendly and helpful and you get what you pay for in terms of the room
Review 11：There wasn't anything. If you're looking for a gloriously beautiful room, this isn't the place. BUT it's perfect for the price and I wouldn't have expected more. When traveling up north, you're not going to spend all the time in your room anyways.
Review 12：We came up for a wedding so barley used the facilities, but, the location was great! You could walk to weirs beach and the arcades. The grounds were nice and the view from our balcony was fantastic! I wish we stayed two night so we could have enjoyed more. The Price was perfect! The pool looks nice and clean, but we did not go swimming.
Review 13：Their pet policy needs some improvement.They assessed a $75.00 per day charge to my 2 day stay because they said I did not mention my service dog which I did when I was searching for rooms 9 months prior. One month later I am still awaiting a final decision on my credit card dispute.
Review 14：Location,setting,town.
Review 15：The room was filthy and the bed was filthy,there were dead bugs in the mattress and I left very angry because the room was full of bed bugs I have bites all over my face, arms and neck. I'm afraid to bring any of the suitcases into my home. At this time I am washing everything that was in the room and trashing the suitcase! Security was awful, there wasn't any, everyone left at 10pm? the door was not secure and the airconditioner didn't fit into the window. There a space for creatures to slide in. The refrigerator was full of ice, it needed to be defrosted. There was mold around the bottom of the furniture. Tell them to clean it up so the next person doesn't have to leave all chewed up!
Review 16：Nothing about the property.
Review 17：Never they answered the phone and a reservation desk answered instead, very frustrating, it took a long time to get clear instructions to reach the property. The person in the reception was not conscious that no lake cruises are organized after the labour day, quite amazing as this place is at less than 100m from the reception.
Review 18：The position is wonderful, the room has facilities, is comfortable but modest in looking, still worth at the paid price.
Review 19：Needed more outlets for clock,coffee pot needed a table,not floor. Rug needed cleaning and windows didn't lock.Lamp at bedside didn't work.Not enough outlets to run air conditioner and coffee pot and tv.
Review 20：Location and good eating within walking distance.Nice walking on boardwalk with beautiful lake view
Review 21：Great place to stay for vacation, short walking distance to the lake, fridge and microwave in motel room, which was very spacious. Small bathroom but still ok in size. Wifi is good outside motel room and included in price. Short walking distance to every restaurant and the pier in town.
Review 22：lack of outside grilling area. hard to carry and set up grill for older (74yrs) people. Porch chairs in cottages not comfortable for older people.
Review 23：Pool, location, friendly staff, comfortable accomodations, great views of lake and mountains. overall great place for the price
Review 24：Rooms are the bare minimum, no fridge, blankets are modest, bathroom was clean but layout was awkward, at best, it is a room. TV options are only commercial TV, no options for other channels, no radio, no clock, no phone, smoking on the porch allows smoke into your room if the window is open. Parking is a challenge unless you park on the lawn. Bottom line, it is an old place with the minimum of amenities.
Review 25：Staff.
Review 26：The pictures of the cottages online showed only 3 or 4 steps to get into them. When we got there we were assigned cottage number 22, there were 2 handicap adults and found approximately 15 stairs very difficult to climb and the shower too small for our use. We were shocked when we found out we were assigned that cottage. We had no choice.
Review 27：A very convenient location for all activities. Beautiful view.

We would all stay there again when in the area.
Review 72：The spring mattress was uncomfortable.
Review 73：The view was great, nice place to sit and relax on the porch. Close/walking distance to everything. The staff was very professional, friendly and accommodating. A Very nice stay all the way around.
Review 74：Wi-fi connection was extremely poor, tv was very small with no hdmi connectivity. Bed was very comfortable, but couch left much to be desired. Parking was ample, but very tight especially when other guests didn't park just right.
Review 75：The location was good - easily accessible to shopping, food, etc. The view was nice - could see right to the beach. The cottage was quaint and owners did a good job of trying to accommodate. Great place to stay if you're just looking for someplace to rest your head and have quick meals.
Review 76：no phone, no closet, no hair dryer. This may have been good in one way as there was warning in the room that said if you hear the fire alarm "get out as fast as you can"
Review 77：View of lake from window
Review 78：Provided in the room was a coffee maker, microwave and a couple of bags of coffee for the coffee maker. There were no mugs, only paper cups for our tea and coffee. The microwave was no use without cutlery and crockery. We asked at reception and the lovely lady there found us a couple of bowls and spoons so we could make porridge in the microwave for breakfast.
Review 79：Whilst the listing says this is in Laconia, it is actually in Weirs Beach. Location was right by weirs beach quay side and train station
Review 80：The bathroom was so small you could barely sit on the toilet. There was popcorn on, in, and under the couch when we got there. There was hair in various places of the room/bathroom.
Review 81：The bed was comfortable and location was great.
Review 82：Room facilities were basic and the room had clearly not been cleaned properly as there were cobwebs in the corner behind a chair
Review 83：Excellent location overlooking lake
Review 84：room rate did not meet expectations: run down room, linens questionable, room heater scary next time would stay at another Laconia location
Review 85：the view from cottage right in the heart of Weirs Beach and park very close to good restaurant and train station friendly staff
Review 86：nothing
Review 87：the place is budget motel but overlooking the beatiful lake .It also just accross where we get on the boat for a boat tour and also the train stop for the train tour . Great for families on a budget and first timers who can get comfort and convience
Review 88：It was a good price and very convenient to where we needed to be. If we had stayed longer, we would have used the sink, fridge and kitchen facilities- which is very handy.
Review 89：The lack of hot water in the morning for bathing. We received an apology but that did not bathe us. Lack of good dining.
Review 90：It got us close to a place we wanted to visit.
Review 91：The room (especially the bathroom) was FILTHY. The floor looked like it hadn't been swept in a while, and I wouldn't have taken a bath in that tab for all the tea in China! There was a weird contraption in the closet that was on the whole time and made a loud noise, too.
Review 92：The location was convenient. Check-in was simple.
Review 93：The Older lady working at the Office was the rudest person i've dealt with at a resort. Unfriendly. Just the absolute worst in all my travels. I liked the place, but I don't think we would go back because of her.
Review 94：Hotel was very outdated and needed some serious cleaning. The roomsmelled of smoke. The couch that opened to a bed was by far, the worstbed possible for anyone to get sleep in. It was old, dingy and smelled.The mattress was about 3 inches think on the hard bars. The blanked hada hole in the middle of it about the 4 inches in diameter. We killed 3spiders within our room only to find about 30 or 40 outside of our dooron the ceiling of the patio. We looked for a different hotel withinminutes of arrival, but nothing was available in the area. We asked toswitch room s but the hotel was booked.
Review 95：Location and pool
Review 96：I have but one complaint: the bed was soft....WAY Too soft for me.However, if soft beds are your thing, welcome to your heaven!
Review 97：For someone who had never been in this area, it was a great location.The cottage we stayed in was clean, bright, cool (it's a hot summerup here) and had a great porch we could enjoy. Although you could walk15min and swim the lake, the motel had a wonderful, clean, cold pool onthe premises. All in all, it was a lovely experience.
Review 98：The parking is a bit odd for the cottages but very doable. Outside of that there wasn't anything that I didn't like.
Review 99：The value was excellent. Staff amazing. View of Lake Winepausake breathtaking. King size pool was a plus. Overall, excellent place to stay, whether your with a family or just a couple looking for a nice get-away.
Review 100：spider webs around the door; tub filled with water when showering; towels were small and thin; torn shower curtain; 2 hangers provided in closet - the rest were unusable; one drawer in dresser was unusable
Review 101：the room was clean; coffee pot & frig in room; free wi-fi
Review 102：Everything. I have had better accommodations in bunkers and fox holes. Would help to be a mountain climber to get to cabins. Parking was on grass that I believe was covering a leaking septic system.
Review 103：Only one of our two rooms was reserved when we arrived although theconfirmation had two listed. Manager did let us book a cottage for thesame price, thankfully! Miscommunication between bookings.com and hotelcomputer system?
Review 104：Easy drive to Meadowbrook. Quiet location. Quick stay for us but thereseemed to be plenty to do in the area.
Review 105：the fact that when we arrived we were not registered!!!! it was lucky they accommodated us or we do not know what we would have done!! You did not do your job!! will not use this service again, to be sure!!!
Review 106：close to where we wanted to be
Review 107：Ah, I wish I remembered the woman's name who runs the place, because she was so friendly. We stayed in a cabin, quaint and comfortable and very clean. Would definitely stay here again. Thank you for a great stay!
Review 108：pool water was cold (not too important), the only vending machine did not work. Confusion in online Booking.com...if prior travelers had not cancelled we would not have had a room...not good
Review 109：room spacious and clean, beds were confortable, linens and towels soft and smelled nice, good water pressure control and warm water, cold water tasted ok, plenty of closet space storage, furniture in good shape, room was clean, motel/cabins central to activities, clerk was helpful (although irritated) concerning confusion in booking.
Review 110：No wi-fi as promised in price. No hot water the first day. Dryer sheetsstuffed into everything not sure if this was to get rid of a smell orkeep pests away. No phone book in the room. The bed was extremelyuncomfortable.
