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.

First time staying here. Nice clean property with very attentive staff. Did not like the inconvenience of the air conditioner in our room #43. It's manual and located over a counter where the sink is located. You have to step on a chair to reach and read the operation buttons. There's also a need to tidy up the pool deck area. Lots of clutter where the pool maintenance equipment is located. Both days we were at the pool in the middle of the day. The pool cleaner and its electrical cord were in the middle of the pool deck walkway. Loved to see that there was always someone cleaning windows, outdoor chairs and railings etc. Will definitely stay here again.

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.

The beds are extremely uncomfortable, they are hard as a rock, the pillows were super flat no volume. The room was very nice, the kitchen table was a huge amenity as well as the kitchen sink. The stairs were way to much carrier bags and not suited for everyone. I did not realize how many stairs there were possibly my fault for not looking more into it. I like the place but simply do to the beds being so uncomfortable i chose to leave a day early.
