You cannot beat the value of the Cape Sands Inn - for the price, it was excellent! The proximity to a neighboring resort was a big selling point for us, since our family was staying there. Pros: - Very spacious room with living area - Very comfortable bed - Beautiful water view available - Mini-fridge in room - Pump soap, shampoo, conditioner available in room - Very clean overall - Proximity to stores and restaurants Cons: - Limited parking (with a few spaces that are very hard to get in and out of) - Humid rooms - Stained shower curtain

Very Lovely Inn in Cape Cod

It was a lovely inn. We enjoyed the beautiful view from our back door. They had corn hole that we spent some time playing in the evening as well as a bonfire that they started each night. The outdoor swimming pool was a bit cold but the indoor pool was nice and the hot tub was very hot. I wish the indoor pool would have been open earlier and stayed open later. They also offered a communal microwave with plates and forks which was nice.

We had marsh side room which was a nice view but there was mold on the edges of the glass siding door and the bathroom window. There was a patch on the ceiling that wasn't covered properly and the bathroom tub had a constant leak. The beds wear comfortable and clean. There was a coffee pot and refrigerator along with an iron and hair dryer for us to use. I think with some updating this would be a very nice property.
