We enjoyed our stay at the Blue Dolphin Inn. It was very clean, and parking was great. It was a good location; close to theater and restaurants. There was only one issue on a day that it had rained very hard, the water in the bathroom shower and faucet was coming out brown. I went to the office to see why and what they were doing about it because it was a concern. The property manager told me they had a plumbing issue and was corrected. To my surprise it was corrected and no longer an issue.

We were given a room in the back section of the motel behind the buildings. A very dark and depressing room not like the pictures online. Room needed updating. The pool has chipped plaster and was not inviting. The location of the motel near beaches, the Wellfleet drive in and a breakfast restaurant was the only good part of staying at this motel.

We did not stay at this hotel. When we checked in the room had an unpleasant smell. The sliding door to the outside did not close all the way, so bugs could get in. There was dirt and debris all along the baseboard of the room. We left immediately and requested a refund. We were denied.

Cute spot! Cheap. Easy parking. The doors are bit janky so make sure yours locks properly. If you visit in the summer the rooms will be hot when you walk in but the AC works so you just have to let it run for a bit. Wear slippers because it looks like the carpet hasn’t been properly deep cleaned in quite some time.

My family stayed here 8 years ago and had a wonderful experience. I remembered our stay and it was the first place I looked up, I was able to book this trip a day in advance.
We took the bike trail to the Coast Guard Beach, visited the Audubon trail in Wellfleet.
The common area was delightful.
I took a dip in the surprising warm pool.
The staff was friendly and helpful.
I am excited for our next visit.

When I arrived to check-in at 8pm on a Saturday night, the employee had just gotten in their car so they met me in front of the hotel and seemed annoyed. She had put my key in an envelope with my full name and room number in the box next to the front door that anyone could have gotten into. As a solo female traveler, that did not feel great, but luckily I showed up before anyone else (Expedia also has their check in hours open til midnight so either Expedia is wrong or the employee was leaving early). The room itself was fine, the beds were comfortable, but the bathroom is not in good shape.

Unclean and unprofessional

The management didn’t tell us that the room wouldn’t be cleaned, so when we returned at 6 pm it was left disorderly and unclean with no clean bedding or towels.
When we called the front desk, the manager was very rude and hung up the phone. In the morning when we asked to speak with the manager 3 times, no one showed up.
I strongly recommend hotels.com drops this property listing.

Fine for a night

The motel was conveniently located and the price was cheap. Check-in was smooth (self-service) and parking was easy. The room was fine. The sheets and towels were clean, and the bed was comfortable. The shower had good hot water and water pressure. I could hear the people next door talking and snoring and their tv. There was a huge black mold spot on the ceiling in the bathroom that was concerning. The shower curtain and liner were dirty and discolored and should be replaced.
It was all fine for one night but I wouldn’t stay there again. There are many other options on that same road.

Amazing front desk lady working the Friday night evening shift. Smiles, friendly, outgoing, welcoming.

Room was dirty. Dirt on the walls, bathroom floor gross and unswept. Spider colonies and nests in the corners. Carpet dirty and unvacuumed. Toaster full of loose crumbs on top and grime all around it. Beer bottle on the patio. Paid full in/season price for the room (at end of September) so it wasn’t like a “get what you paid for” situation. Just a really expensive, really dirty room.

A good place to stay

The location was perfect for me, close to Cape Cod National Seashore and hiking trails. The atmosphere was mellow and friendly. The restaurant across the parking lot was convenient and wonderful. The staff were friendly. The bed was comfortable, and the shower was good. The front door was a bit flimsy and space around and beneath it that needs to be fixed; I had to catch and release two spiders during my stay. The walls are thin: the first night my neighbors were loud but not past a decent time. The second night I had very loud neighbors until 1 am. When I called the front desk, they responded right away. The phone in my room didn’t work, though. The back patio door has a safety lock, which I appreciated as a solo traveler. The patio door didn’t look like it had been used much, needed to be swept or vacuumed out. Overall, I was pleased with my choice to stay here.
