Overall, our stay was as I expected. Mostly. The rooms were a little dated and the exterior condition of the building was definitely weathered. The screen door leading out to our balcony was clearly many years old and there were huge gaps between it and the frame which forced me to leave the main door closed during our stay for fear of having all the flying bugs entering our room. The king sized bed was harder than I'd prefer but otherwise ok. When I booked the room, the room pictures on the website showed the view thru the windows as if you were facing the ocean directly. "Oceanfront". Not the case. Our balcony was on the side of the building and as you read on it says that. Very misleading photos. The food at the Breakers Restaurant and Bar was outstanding! Fresh seafood and perfectly made cocktails. The Wharfside Cafe, however, left a lot to be desired. The "eggs" options on the menu were omelets only and based on the color and consistency and taste of them, led me to believe they came out of a carton (fake eggs) and weren't fresh. Valet parking is the way to go, here. Very convenient. The last thing I'd like to mention is the loudness of the facility. Don't get me wrong... for nightlife and activities this place offers is good but if you'd like a quiet, peaceful night you'll be disappointed. The bars don't close until 1 am so if you were hoping to catch a good night sleep after spending a relaxing day at the beach (which was phenomenal!) you're out of luck.

I think the property was overpriced for the room. Floors aren’t level, hallways are narrow. You are going to be charged a room fee and a parking fee per night on top of room charges. Staff at front desk are very nice. They do have soda and frozen food at the front which is nice. Rooftop bar was nice but expensive.

Great beachfront vacation

The hotel is a bit dated, but the service, people food and location are fantastic! Located right on the beach, you can walk to the board walk and the sand. Local shops offer fast food and indoor upscale dining within walking distance. The beach has a stage and half shell which had bands each night. Fireworks on Wednesday night. Balcony on many rooms. A little pricey, but a nice vacation spot.

Good/Not so good

Our Deluxe King room was very clean and had a side balcony which had a nice view of the ocean. We stayed over on a Tuesday/Wednesday so we could see the Fireworks display on Wed eve- which is always great. The downside of our stay was the air conditioner would turn off/on throughout the overnight and was very loud and woke us every time (room 366). Disappointed that we looked down on the rooftop over the pool and it was in disrepair. Also, the menu selection in the restaurant at the bar was extremely limited. IDK if we sat at a table if the menu would have been more expansive? But, that was very disappointing. Would I stay here again? Probably not.

The Ashworth is a long-standing hotel institution in Hampto Beach. As with most of the older ocean hotels in the New Hampshire/Maine area, the room was a little worn around the edges. It was clean and comfortable, in a great centralized location. The valet parking is a godsend for the crowded beach area. The Wharfside Cafe at the hotel was a very nice place for breakfast. The Breakers Restaurant at the hotel was a mixed bag. My wife and sister-in-law enjoyed their haddock plate and sandwich. My hamburger tasted off (later in the night I was proven correct) and my brother-in-law’s pizza appeared to be the frozen variety,JMO. The staff was friendly and helpful when needed. As with any hotel on beachfront property, it’s a little pricey. I would recommend this hotel with the caveat that don’t expect a 5 star resort.

Not worth the pricetag

Prime location across the street from the beach so paying higher rate is expected but it's not worth the pricetag - condition of the building is rundown, no running water in the restroom off the lobby, room not cleaned properly with empty drink cups on the balcony and bobby pins on the bathroom counter so you know that wasn't wiped, no noise cancelling efforts so room was very loud with traffic and voices outside, horrible bed, no in room phone to easily call front desk, no in room directory with local information, photos online are misleading making it look nicer than it is. Don't recommend for families - really just good as a place to crash after the beach for the partying crowd.

Excellent motel. Rooms very clean and comfortable. Staff friendly. Valet parking was awesome. Really like restaurant options downstairs, very convenient. Walkable to beach, shopping, restaurants and events. Only reason I didn’t give it 5 stars was all the extra fees charged to my credit card. Other than $25 parking fee per day not really sure about the other charges.
