Parking is a joke if you have anything larger than a compact car. The office was unattended both times we went in there. Our room was not what we expected. There was a gap between the bottom of the door and the threshhold, and we could see daylight through it. There was long brown hair on top of the bedspread and in the bathroom (I have blonde hair). The area around there is okay, but not what we expected for our first visit to the Cape Cod area. Thankfully it was only 2 nights. We booked it because we wanted to stay somewhere that looked like a typical New England B&B instead of a chan hotel and this was far from it. If we ever visit the area, we will most definitely avoid Onset.

Bathroom had some hair on the floor in a few spots. They have a system designed to be protective of power, which requires a card to turn the power on to the room. The issue there is a musty smell since the AC is not running while the room is empty.
