Found in a good central location, easy to find, lots of parking options. A little play structure is located outside good for younger children. We were disappointed with the cleanliness of our room. Easy check in and easy check out. Staff were friendly. Sufficient for a one night stay.

I have never seen an inn so dirty in my life. The advertisement is misleading. We got there past midnight, there is no receptionist waiting. I had to ring the doorbell. Got the key, drove to the room, the door was so difficult to open. When the door opened, the stench and muskiness of the room just hits us. The mini-fridge door was flung open, unplugged, cobwebs on the windows, dead bug on the floor. It was so unreal, it felt like I was in the middle of a nightmare. We booted out of there. This inn shouldn't even be listed for rental. Disgusting! I shiver evertime I think about that place. It was a nightmare!

I let hotel management know that our refrigerator was not working and she had it replaced within a couple of hours. The bathroom was recently remodeled, so that was especially nice. We are a family of 5 so having three queens in the room was great.

The hosts were very friendly. The area is very close to Canatara beach and waterfront area next to the US border. It is also close to a mall for shopping. The room was big enough. Only issue was the window air conditioner which was a bit loud and air was not cool enough.

No hair dryer and basic amenities like shampoo. Dead bugs on floor and lots on window sills.No coffee in room. To save on power everything was unplugged so room so heat was sweltering. Took all night with a very busy AC to cool the room down. Lots of services within a 2 km area. Does not respect the advertised senior discount. Internet works well. Stay anywhere else!

At our overnight stay within the Gables Inn we enjoyed our overall stay. The rooms were newly updated (we had 2) the beds were comfortable and there was lots of room for activites indoors. The only downfall with the Gables inn is that it’s broadcasted their is a pool for swimming and to our surprise when we arrived it looked like the pool had been closed for many years and instead built a small jungle gym next to it meaning it should have been removed from the ad. The lady working the front desk was friendly and answered any questions we had.
