• James (10/5): - Perfect

• Anthony (10/5): - Very nice service
• Karolína (6/5): - Fine
• Rosane (10/5): - Check-in was a breeze! Room’s simple but just right for the price.
• Dany (10/5): - Good service
• Brianna (10/5): - Perfect, clean, comfortable, just what we needed for a one night stay.
• Teresa (10/5): - Beach, boardwalk, shops, and restaurants were only a block away. The motel is a great spot to stay if you want to save some money.
• Alison (10/5): - Reasonable price
• Darryl (6/5): - Great front desk staff but rooms are extremely outdated, tv was on dresser leaned against the wall, wall were cinder blocks and a floor fan was required, and provided, to get any air circulation.
• Deborah (4/5): - Smelled like mildew… Permanent stains in the bathtub… Shower handle kept falling off…TV in front living area had only a few stations… I will never stay here again
• kimberly (2/5): - This motel is very outdated, the carpets are disgusting. The bathroom smells because they don’t clean in the sides of the toilet. Th e shower curtain had mold in it, and the vents are full of mold. Walls and corners are filthy. I would never go back there again
• Robbee (10/5): - This is an awesome spot to say It is more affordable and you have access to Virginia Beach and all of the highlights there without having to drive they have free parking and the rooms are large
• perlita (10/5): - Great service! I’m super grateful he had the rooms already cleaned. Parking was very easy no hassle. The room smelled odd. everything else was great. I would book again.
• Kaylee (10/5): - We were very happy with our stay! The very best thing about this motel was the location! Even tho you are not ocean front, it’s just steps away, and the pier is literally right there! All the best food places as well are within steps! The staff was the next best thing! Helpful, kind, friendly, funny, and all around wonderful hotel staff! We arrived early and our room wasn’t ready and they let us use a empty rooms bathroom, while they were cleaning it! Very kind and understanding! The room could be updated, as our microwave/stove/vent hood. They weren’t working as good as they should, but we made it work as it was the least of our worries! Could have been slightly cleaner and cooler in the rooms. Pool was very clean and clear! All around very satisfied with our stay!
• elizabeth (2/5): - DO NOT book with this people - they have ridiculous sneaky fees and horrible rude customer service / place / dirty / smelly
• Tony (8/5): - The front desk was super kind we got there early and our room was already ready
• Felecia (4/5): - The photos listed for this property are old. When I stayed for 2 nights in May 2025, the pool was GREEN and there was mildew and some mold spots throughout our room. The staff was very friendly, but everything around the property appeared to be neglected. I know ~$100/night is cheap for a hotel in this location, but at least advertise more accurate photos.
• Giovana (4/5): - The location wasn't bad at all, but right behind the hotel, there was some camping going on, which made me feel unsafe. The bed sheets had some stains on them, and the room was hot (ac was on the lowest that it would go). We did see some roaches in the bathroom at some point. Kitchen supplies (fridge, stove, oven) were dirty. I wouldn't stay at this property again.
• melissa (2/5): - We were told by a manager we could have drinks or water at the pool..when it was 100 degrees out
• Justin (6/5): - Old and ac not cool enough
• Hannah (10/5): - We had the best time staying here. The hotel staff was extremely accommodating and kind. Great location from the beach!
• Kristi (4/5): - I would not stay here again. 1) There were BUGS!!!! 2) A/C barely worked 3) Deadbolt on door did not work 4) Refrigerator had a broken shelf and stains 5) Sand all over floor as if it was never vacuumed 6) Curtain rod broken with curtains hanging off the rod. Good location but this place needs major work!
• Kevin (4/5): Don't get the kitchen - A kitchen without even a single fork or plate, not even a coffee pot. And forget an ice machine - I was looked at like I was crazy for even asking
• Becky (10/5): - Friendly staff, clean rooms, free parking and easy walking distance to food, shopping and we did not use or car except for a walmart run that was only 10 min away.
• glen (6/5): - The gentleman at the front desk was very helpful and kind when I needed hrlp.
• Donita (6/5): - It smelt horrible.. The toilet was loose from the floor
• Kim (8/5): - Staff was very friendly and welcoming. Room was spacious:)
• Brittany (10/5): - Quiet, Comfy beds, friendly staff, great location. Perfect for a little 2 night getaway. Older hotel, if you’re looking for super fancy look elsewhere, but if you’re like us and just need a place to shower and sleep, this hotel is perfect.
• Toreaco (6/5): - Close to the beach, was better than expected but needs improvement
• Rachel (2/5): Would not recommend. - We only stayed at this property because we left the other property. However there is no pool at this property. They use it as a smoking area. This is also a place where people live and pay weekly rates so keep that in mind if you’re coming to stay, this is supposed to be a fully furnished suite however, there are no dishes no silverware nothing. also, there was no deadbolt on the door which intern we had to put the table in front of the door and somebody came knocking at our door at 3 o’clock in the morning several times scared believing crap out of my teenage daughter. Zero out of 10 would not recommend.
• Jacqueline (4/5): - This place is hilarious really... They want a 100 deposit for a room with ripped rugs, broken appliances, mold, old furniture, curtains with holes, the sleeper sofa had stains, and there were roaches, the beds were super uncomfortable, the tvs barely worked, and Wi-Fi was roll of the dice. They don't supply any utensils or cooking supplies. The other guests were very sketchy and argued 1 guy even had a knife to someone's throat and the cops had to shoot him. The 1 housekeeper was nice but the Indian guy at the front desk was rude. When I complained about my fridge and stove they sent 1 of the other guests to look at it who they also paid to clean rooms, which imo is not only unprofessional but unsafe as well. It isn't the worst hotel in the area but definitely not worth the money especially if your staying a while.
• Gary (2/5): - The pictures of the motel are very misleading. As soon as we pulled into the parking lot you could tell this place had definitely seen better days when we walked into our room we were hit with a disgusting musty moldy smell and seen the mold aaround the around the
• Stephanie (8/5): - As a frequent traveler on a budget, this motel is better than most. It's extremely clean, especially the bathroom. The water temp is hot, not tepid and they don't skimp on towels, like most motels. The bed was comfy and the pillows were plump and fluffy, not flat. The front desk was very professional and friendly and endured my ill temper because I was very hot and tired from a long walk in the humid temperatures. One complaint I had was the cable T.V. Lots of motels and hotels are switching to the Smart T.V.s like Roku with the Apps, since these days a 50 inch costs around $200 at Walmart. But this cable T.V. which used Cox as a provider didn't have a lot of the cable channels that were supposed to be available. This was a first for me. However, as a lone woman traveler, I felt safe. This is also a great place for families. Highly recommend.
• Lara (8/5): - The staff is great. Accommodations are good and the location is excellent.
• Erika (4/5): - Mold in the bathroom and they thought we took a space heater.
• Barbara (4/5): - I never got a chance to sleep there Had to get another hotel. Its smells molded and the couch was dirty dusty. I just lose my money.
• Vianey (2/5): - This hotel was absolutely disgusting and in horrible condition the up keep to this property is zero to none there are roaches in the kitchen all the rooms smell like mold the carpets are is horribly dirty almost hazardous condition for anyone to stay it seems housekeeping has absolutely given up in cleanliness and the sheets are so old and worn out that they aren’t white when they are supposed to be white but instead they are yellow and brown and the overtop blankets are stained and dirty and rough the walls are covered and grim dirt nasty stains and mold and water damage.
• Yanilka (2/5): - Had so many bugs I didn’t sleep in there
• Abdul Fatah (10/5): - Good.

• Rissa (10/5): Great place to stay - The location was convenient for walking to the beach. The room was clean and the staff was very friendly. I would stay there again.
• Christina (4/5): - The only thing good about this place was it was walking distance to the ocean. We had so many problems with the room. Sheets still had food on it and stains. Fridge was leaking. Bed broke. I found 2 bugs I’m praying they wasn’t roaches. The cupboards looked like they was never cleaned. I would def never go there again!
• Mara (10/5): Beach carousel - Stayed at the beach carousel. Was very nice. Pool was clean plenty of clean linens staff was friendly and great

• Adil (2/5): Not worth it - It was horrible
• Elfido (8/5): - Our stay was wonderful and the staff were very friendly to us. The pool was very nice and clean and we really loved that the place was a walkable distance to the beach. Definitely recommend the place is you’re looking to save some money. However, it is a motel so do not expect a luxury stay.
• edenilson (10/5): - Myself and my family really liked the room and the hotel and they are very friendly, thank you
• Jamall (6/5): - It was average
• Jennifer (6/5): - The beds were soaked asked for new bedding and the “new” bedding was soaked too
• Talesha (10/5): - I would definitely book here again it’s an older building so it’s not fancy but it was spacious and slept our family of 5 I slept peacefully heard no noises or disturbance it’s only a 3 minute walk to the beach which was convenient I would definitely book here again
• Christopher (2/5): - The room A/C I stayed in wasn’t working. The room was super hot and humid. I had to go buy a fan for myself and plus the room had mold and it smells like cigarettes.
• Ashley (2/5): - Rude
• Rhiannon (2/5): - Tv did not work ,
• Lena (2/5): - They made me leave Tuesday and told me I didn't have a reservation for Thursday
• April (2/5): - They resold my room! When we came to check in they were full and could not honor our reservation refused refund! Go else where! The guy at the front desk was kind & polite. I’m assuming he only is there on the weekends, he tried to contact the owner but was unsuccessful!
• DJ (2/5): - Terrible 😔
• Shane (2/5): - They are a rip off and stold my money .
• Alexandria (2/5): - Management was rude , unprofessional. Place was dirty and roach filled. People were screaming and fighting everywhere . Music blasting . Babys crying. People smoking and doing drugs. Trash everywhere.
• Tamara (4/5): - Mold on the bed sheets , mold on the shower curtain and the bath tile
• Stephanie (4/5): - There is no heat. 46°F and the heater was blowing cold air. When I asked about it they are on a boiler system and decided to not switch it from AC to heat. 5hwir solution was to just turn off the heater and keep the doors closed. It was a cold miserable night.
• Henry (2/5): WORST STAY EVER - One of the worst stays ever. I'm a 67 year old male and at night I get a little cold sometimes, the temperature could not be adjusted all they had was VERY cold air blowing even as I enter the room. I told the gentlemen at the desk, and it seem to not be a big deal to him, he told me to turn off the A.C. and the room would warm up, it didn't. The motel had no Ice machine or drink machine. The cable T.V. in the room had very few selections, half of the channels didn't even work. No hair dryer, had to go buy one. The people next door where smoking weed and the odor was coming into my room. Also the people next door, would come out of their room to talk on the phone LOUD in the stairwell at 2 and 3 a.m. while smoking their weed. I confronted them about it, and they said the reason they came outside to smoke and talk is because of not being able to smoke in their room. This was most definitely one of my worst stays. I would NEVER recommend this place to anyone.
• Robert (4/5): - Pictures were deceiving
• jennifer (2/5): - The property was not as advertised. It said rated for covid cleanliness and safe. There was black mold on the walls and base boards, the rooms smelled like they were wet and musty. Should be ashamed to advertise themselves as a 3 star hotel. I woukd not even stay with my asthmatic son.
• Ashley (2/5): - Property had roach traps in the room, broken dresser drawers, missing cabinet doors, missing burners on stove, dirty refrigerator. Staff was also rude.
• David (10/5): - If you're looking for the hoidy-toidy super luxurious experience .. nope! If you're looking for a simply great place to stay with a fantastic staff... YEP! It's a good spot to stay, and I will DEFINITELY look them up the next time I come out here!
• George (2/5): - Dirty place carpet and walls smell like cigarettes and mold is everywhere. Bed sheets and dirty also bathrooms not clean. Me and my wife we bought cleaning chemicals and we clean the bathroom ourselves just not to catch a disease or something. We all got sick from the mold in the room. It’s better to sleep outside on the sand but not in this place. Iam not sure why police or health department not saying anything about it!!!
• Tabari (10/5): - Its okay
• Michael (8/5): Hidden gem - The beach is convenient to the beach. A block away from the sand. Was very quiet and convenient.
• Michael (6/5): - Killed a roach room was not clean bathroom faucet was loose.
• Adrian (10/5): - I likes how is quite
• Rachel (4/5): - The room was very dirty and not cleaned. The bathroom had other people’s trash still in the can, toothpaste spit on the faucet , the small refrigerator was filthy. The blankets and sheets were stained and looked as if they had just been pulled back. The pillows were two travel size on each bed. The ceiling was peeling and falling apart. And the walls and carpet were dirty. The door didn’t seal all the way and had no security chain to lock. We left right after check in .
• David (4/5): - Windows dirty, lifted cushions up on sofa and full of trash
• Kenneth (2/5): - Unable to contact this motel by phone to cancel my stay. i tried multiple times for three days. if this is how they run their business they won't be in business much longer. i was trying to find out in the beginning if they had somewhere we could park our boat. Never got an answer from website or anyone to answer the phone.
• jeff (4/5): - Smelled like cigarettes
• Sterling (8/5): - Everything was great, just wish the pool was open
• Gae (10/5): - I rented a suite on the first floor for 10 days. The furniture and carpet in the room were very clean and appeared new. The staff especially "Al" were always available and I felt like I was one of the family there. Parking was perfect and it was easy to move things n and out of my vehicle. The price was most favorable. Although the pool was not open yet, the staff was getting ready to open it and adding new special lighting around the area. Absolute best stay for the price.
