I am all good with no-frills and inexpensive as long as the room is clean. When I saw the Breakwater web site, noting "if you are on a budget and just need a clean tidy room in a great location", I figured they would fit the bill. I was SO wrong. The walls of our room were stained and had... More

Just wanted to tell all you other regular Breakwater visitors (I've been going for 30 years to this place) that they finally put new windows in and they look (and work) great! They put new rugs in...little funky on the design but very cool. Glad to see that young foreign couple back...Les and Niki. They always have such an eclectic... More

I stayed here with several friends for the week of Carnival. It is just what we needed. Clean rooms, clean and comfortable beds, friendly staff. Clean linens were brought every morning and our rooms were cleaned every day! You can't ask for a better rate to stay in Ptown! It is located a mile from the town hall. Close to... More

Years ago, way before my time, Provincetown was an isolated little fishing village with a reputation for tolerance that suited people whose lifestyles were beyond the mainstream. Then along came the MONEY. Real estate prices went crazy and everyone got an attitude. Good luck finding a decent room for less than $200 per night in season, and forget about staying... More

We were looking for a no frills motel to say in, after a couple of days touring around Cape Cod. We came across this place, and decided to stay the night. We were offered a cheaper room at the back part of the motel, but decided to spend the extra dollars to get a room overlooking the water. The room... More

I was very satisfied with our overnight stay, we did not have unrealistic expectations, the room was small the furniture was ancient, but it was clean and the beach across the street was amazing!! Lesley at check in was very friendly and took a cell phone number in case we needed a call about the dogs, who could be left... More

Ptown is over priced and can be pretentious. But this place is cheap and in a perfect spot looking at the bay, next to the big pool too. The rooms are ancient but they don't pretend to be anything but an old beachy motel. Bring your pet because it's the most pet friendly place I've ever stayed in. The staff... More

we booked 2 rooms at the motel for 3 nights in August after reading the positive reviews on tripadvisor. The motel looks ok from the outside but when we got inside we were most disappointed! The room had bits on the floor so it obviously hadn't been cleaned properly and there were several dead insects on the windowsill. There was... More

When my mother and I checked in, the woman at the front desk was not willing to give an opinion on anything we asked. She stated that all the restaurants were "nice and were about the same price" and that all the whale watching tours were "nice and cost the same price." It was made clear that dogs were welcome...
