Peaceful stay in Chincoteague

We found them run so comfortable, with lots of amenities next door: a breakfast with lots of variety, pool, and exercise room. Location was great to get to restaurants and shops on the west side of the island.

The only notable issue was that the cleaning team had left their vacuum in the room we checked into, but we just put it in the closet so it only mattered on a level of professionalism really. The private dock is nice to relax on after a busy day running around the island.

I loved the view and the friendly people but the room service had a lot to be desired. I had to ask for toilet paper, empty waste basket, make the bed. The phone did not work, the toilet leaked, shower had a leak and I had some trouble understanding the air conditioner.

This was our second stay at the Anchor Inn. The peaceful and calming setting is what we need after our busy job schedules. Our accommodations, like last year, were wonderful. The pool and courtyard are kept beautifully and provide a great place to relax. Our only complaint is that we had to ask for clean towels one evening because our room wasn’t cleaned/checked by housekeeping during the second day of our stay. On the third day of our stay, our towel supply and trash were taken care of but we had to call to ask for our room’s coffee supplies to be replenished. These weren’t major problems that couldn’t be fixed with calling the desk, but we did not have to do this last year.
