“Inn On The Blues places you steps from Short Sands Beach, with live music often filling the air and seafood dishes fresh from the kitchen; it's certainly not a classically quiet hotel experience. It seems ideal for friends and families who prioritize a vibrant, casual atmosphere and proximity to York's attractions like Wonder Mountain Fun Park; the beachfront location is a definite plus. For those seeking lively energy and easy access to the beach, this spot warrants consideration.”
