Inn on the Blues

My 19-year-old son and I recently stayed at Inn on the Blues for a mother-son weekend in York Beach, and overall we were very happy with our stay. The location is fantastic, right across the street from the beach and just steps from the shops and restaurants at Short Sands. We have visited York many times, so we didn't need much assistance, but check-in was easy. It was completed at the hostess stand, and a staff member escorted us to our room, Sunrise #2. This property is more of an inn than a traditional hotel, offering a smaller, more personal experience. Parking was available in a small lot behind the building, and we had no trouble finding a space. The rear exterior could use some updating, but it did not affect our stay. Our room was located above the restaurant. There was music in the evenings, which didn't bother either of us, but travelers who are sensitive to noise may want to keep that in mind. Our room was clean and modern, with ac, and the shower had plenty of hot water. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and would happily return. The location and comfortable accommodations made it a great home base for a York Beach getaway.

The view from our room was incredible! Jimmy was very helpful in navigating the stairs with our mountains of stuff. The room was comfortable and clean however, whatever cleaning agent they use smells horrific. The only other complaint was that the hot water was fairly iffy, but I understand it’s an older building and that may happen. Overall, I would definitely return as we enjoyed our stay immensely. Being able to walk downtown and various dining options and the beach all in one was great!

Perfect location

Check in was a little confusing but everyone was so nice! (We had to find the host at the restaurant). That said, the room was cozy, comfortable and SPOTLESS clean! This is an older building with New England charm that is beautifully clean and lovely. Location cannot be better, as it’s right in the commercial center of York. We ate at the restaurant twice and everyone was lovely. Will absolutely recommend this Inn!
