The Beach !
I enjoyed my stay there with my gf for her birthday. Room was clean , front desk was super accommodating with extra towels and early check in cause our room was vacant the night before which was a bonus ! Parking was good and loved the heated pool we both enjoyed our stay !

Nice Area of Hampton Beach
Staff was very accomodating - helped my husband carry luggage up to the second floor and gave us directions to places that we wanted to visit. Not much beach view in our room but air conditioner/heater worked fine. Only two small items - bed was rather uncomfortable and there was mold on the shower curtain which when I reported, I was told that they were being replaced soon.
It was very convenient to the Boardwalk and we enjoyed our stay.

Leider sehr enttäuschend! Wir hatten uns auf die sehr guten Bewertungen verlassen und waren dann entsetzt, in welchem Zustand das Motel ist. Alles ist sehr renovierungsbedürftig!

Nice little get away
I would recommend the Mainsail it is a cute little motel. Very clean and employees were very accommodating. Well-kept 1 block right off main strip of Hampton Beach. We would definitely stay again. We stayed in the Motel rooms side but they have cottages as well. Nice pool area.

Great stay. Clean and nice. They have a lot of cleaning staff, so I would remove checkout requirements for guests. Also, having drinking glasses (not coffee cups) would be an added bonus. Overall, good time and we would return.

Word of Mouth is Avertisement
By phone I spoke about getting an extra parking space, because there is only one spot per room. I was told there probably would be one but when I arrived we were told there weren't any left. Yet for two nights there was 1-2 empty spots. It cost us over $100.00 to park in lots. We extended our stay somewhere else with better customer service!!

We have been staying here for over 20 years. It has gone downhill a bit over the past few years as far as upkeep and cleanliness. The stairs needed to be vacuumed. They used to be done daily. Looked like they hadn’t been done all summer. Our beds were so uncomfortable which was never a problem before. We will still go back!! And hopefully these issues will be addressed
