Green Dolphin Motel

If you’re familiar with Old Orchard, this place is like all of the others. It’s old, as they all are. Our room was clean. TV did not work, we could not get wifi on any of our devices. The location is excellent, as is the pool. Those are about the only positives. The motel is under new management this year, they have a new reservation/payment processing system. After check in the staff tried to tell me my payment didn’t go through. After a quick call to my bank, they verified my payment DID go through. But through our entire stay the staff continued to say my payment was not received. It was a hassle, it had me worried over our whole vacation. I ended up having to call the bank 4 or 5 times. Rooms in OOB are expensive enough without feeling like you have to pay twice. Granted through the whole ordeal the staff was very friendly. Though they were wrong. I would imagine there have probably been more payment issues through the summer with this new system. Though I hope not for the guests’ sake. Without the payment issue, we would have stayed again, but now I doubt we will.

Extremely overpriced for this quality. Yellow sheets. Clogged sink. 40-year-old furniture. The bed had one sheet and a bedspread. No blanket. I requested housekeeping service, and they delivered clean (yellow) sheets and I had to put them on myself. The best part is when Amtrak barrels through at 1:00 am, blasting its horn, and shaking the room.

Close walk to beach

Property was great. No working tv and internet was in and out. But that wasnt a big deal just on the rainy day it would have been use8. Just so you know if you stay here the train is REALLY Loud. The tracks are right behind the property. If you are a light sleeper take that into consideration it runs at 1am and 4am.

Trizzie checked us in early and was extremely welcoming and pleasant! She was extremely helpful, helped us get rooms right next to each other, parking spaces that were best for our vehicles, and early check-in for both rooms! We loved their pool. It was small, but big enough for us to play in and lounge around. Clean and perfect temperature! We were excited to find that beach access was a 2-minute walk, right across the street. We were able to walk down the street to the main shopping/dining/pier area for dinner, shopping, and rides and arcade too! Just a note: There are train tracks right behind the motel (we were at the end, right next to the tracks) and we were not bothered by the train overnight. It is LOUD during the day.

Good clean close to the beach and pier

Our room was clean and had a full bathtub and kitchenette which were great with kids. The staff were wonderful. The location is perfect- the pier is a short walk away but there is also beach access right across the street. The downside, however, is the train is steps away as well. It passes through all day and night and blares it’s horn as it goes by. We travel with a sound machine for our daughter which helped a little. Without it we wouldn’t have been able to get a bit of sleep.

It has kitchenette and basic eating and cooking stuff that is clean and in good condition. Walk across the street and you are at the beach. A reasonable walk to the main pier. Truly enjoyed my stay and considering going back next year.

The staff was great. The room was clean. The fridge Kept everything super cold. The AC didn’t work though and the mattresses were a little uncomfortable.

Très bien situé à Old Orchard Beach. Vieillot, mais propre et entretenu. Excellent service à la réception. Personnel courtois. Plage à 1 minute à pied.
