Guest Reviews

• Kathryn (8/5): -
• Schaeffer (7/5): -
• Donau (10/5): -
• Phillip (10/5): - Bed was a little uncomfortable and made a lot of noise
• mitchell (10/5): - Everything!
• Stanley (3/5): N/A - Quiet, close to the beach. Check in was at 1600. However, we had to wait an additional hour before check-in because the room had not been cleaned yet. There were people hanging around outside the entire time drinking from open containers. The air conditioning was only strong enough for the living room making the bedrooms almost uncomfortable when trying to sleep. No vending machines for drinks, food etc.
• mitchell (10/5): -
• Rodney (9/5): -
• Michael (8/5): Very welcoming and the room albeit small was good value for money - Clean and shower was good The bathroom paintwork needs working on but I’m sure that’s work in progress
• Bobbi (10/5): We loved and looking to come back this summer for my sons birthday if possible - We loved it Nothing
• Price (9/5): -
• Jamie (10/5): Great - Great location, comfortable and clean rooms, friendly staff
• Doster (10/5): -
• James (9/5): -
• Wojciech (7/5): -
• nicole (8/5): Soggiorno ottimo, posizione buona e servizi generali buoni - posizione super comoda e camera molto carina
• pipkin (7/5): - Easy check in and out. Very clean. Pillows. I brought my own pillow.
• Joan (1/5): - Very dated accomodations. Lock to door defective. Difficult to open...had to use shoulder to push door open. Staff's broken English difficult to understand. Would not recommend.
• Dulse (9/5): -
• mitchell (10/5): -
• Dennis (8/5): -
• Mary (7/5): -
• Zabaleta (7/5): - The location The smell at the beginning. There was a lot of light at night.
• mitchell (10/5): -
• Jana (8/5): -
• Grugett (8/5): - Great price and location. Bed wasn't the most comfortable, but for the price, can't expect Temperpedic.
• Marcus (1/5): No hot water in the shower, unprofessional practices - That it was close to the beach, low cost The manager seemed as if he didn't want my business once he knew I was there working at the Wawa. I have worked for the Wawa for two years, but now I'm opening a new Wawa in va, so I'm finishing up in KDH until mid April. I told the manager this and he said they don't give rooms to locals for work. One...no where on the website was the information disclosed. How do I not know that he just made that rule up when he saw me walking to his office, that is the reason why you have rules and standards posted so everyone understands that from the beginning. Also, he mentioned J1 workers, which I'm not, nor am I a local. I just do not understand how my money is any different from anyone elses. This was highly unprofessional and bordered on prejudice!
• Rhassan (2/5): I wouldn’t come back ever. - The only good thing is location. Dirty, rude staff, flys around, noisy, old and uncontrollable bed.
• Jackson (10/5): -
• mitchell (10/5): -
• Stan (10/5): -
• Baker (8/5): -
• Autumn (10/5): -

• t.o kennel (10/5): -
• Kathy (1/5): -
• davis (10/5): -
• Rick (7/5): -
• Larry B (10/5): Very comfortable - A very comfortable little place. Front desk staff and other guests were extremely friendly and helpful. Nice, clean and quiet. Nothing fancy, just a nice place.
• Amber (10/5): -
• Laura (5/5): -
• Herman (8/5): -
• Christy (10/5): -
• CONNIE (7/5): We enjoyed it and appreciated the last minute reservation - I liked that it was close to the beach, I liked that it was dog friendly, and I liked that it was a reasonable price, it was clean and close to everything. I liked that I got a last minute reservation because of the hurricane. The only thing is the AC Unit was at the level of the bed and blew directly on me. My throat was sore the next morning from blowing in my face. Other then that was nothing to complain about.
• Terry (8/5): -
• Rosetta (10/5): -
• Jill (10/5): - Excellent location; friendly, helpful staff.
• Brian (5/5): If you are looking a cheap room this works but don't expect anything special. - Cheap and clean. Cops showed up late for a disturbance, there was a hole in my blinds where someone could see eye level with the top of the bed.
• James (5/5): Very good location for a fair value. - No breakfast. Good location. Exterior shower location.
• Rose (6/5): - Ac was in living room. Not that much air in bedrooms. Place was small. Distance to beach access was a little far. Bathroom/shower was small. Overall, it was okay but would not stay there again.
• Kelli (6/5): decent for how cheap it was - decent for the price, mattress was good. pretty clean. deadbolt didn’t work so you were relying on the handle with only a key code. shower was extremely hot, wouldn’t get cold without turning off. very very small bathroom. blankets kind of sucked.
• Christine (8/5): I’d stay again. - Clean hotel. Easy check in. Comfy beds. I stayed in the two bedroom apartment and it had everything you needed. Parking was very tight. And parking in front of your place was not assigned like it should. We had to park elsewhere because the parking was packed. We were unfortunately next to people that partied all night long and were Rudy and rude, not much sleep two out of the three days we stayed, but that’s not the owners fault.
• James (6/5): We were happy to stay here and would stay again! - Basic motel amenities. The room was clean, the area was quiet, and the rate was what we wanted! Close to the Wright Bros. attraction so we didn't have to drive far to see it. Recommend it as a convenient, economical place to spend one night while traveling. It was what we expected. Nothing more, nothing less!
• Shakera (10/5): -
• Ethan (1/5): Tiny room, no hot water and no ice. No bueno - Location ok. TV worked No Ice Maker, not broken, just no ice maker. No hot water. Total Fail!!!!!
• Rachel (8/5): -
• Mark (8/5): -
• John (8/5): -
• Damien (9/5): A quaint place, centrally located for a short stay. - The location is walking distance to the Jolly Roger, Movie Theater and Target. The room (#11) smelled musty and damp.
• Valerie (7/5): - You really can't beat it for the price. The plumbing needs work. The toilet backed up in to the shower every time it was flushed. And the shower was extremely small.
• Malette (4/5): - Pricing Slippery bathroom floor
• Hugh (7/5): -
• Jesica (10/5): - Clean and affordable
• Fred (8/5): Good stay while in the area for work. - Location and convenience Shower handle didn’t work very well and sink didn’t drain well.
• Flowers (10/5): -
• Linda (9/5): Very convenient and cozy - The hotel is very convenient for my monthly gatherings. Looking forward to staying there again Extra bath cloths
• Kandi (5/5): -
• David (10/5): -
• Deborah (1/5): -
• NFragner (9/5): - We liked how close we were to the beaches, restaurants, and stores. My dogs were allowed and they had their own potty spot for them. Parking lot a little small, but for the most part everything was nice.
• Sandra (1/5): It could be a cute place - Cute place at first affordable 😍 Tv didn't work a roach climbed on me while sleeping blankets were thin
• Darin (10/5): - Clean room, quiet, affordable N/A
• Jason (7/5): -
• Hugo (8/5): Très sympa - La chambre est plutôt grande, avec beaucoup de rangements et un grand parking. Dans le centre de la ville. Très simple mais agréable. Un peu vieillot mais c'est très bien.
• Crystal (4/5): Definitely was not what I thought it was going to be. - Bed was comfortable. Room was not very clean, shower had a used bar of soap on the shelf inside shower. Refrigerator was not clean inside, towels appeared to be somewhat dirty as well and on second night a roach was scurrying down the wall by the bed. And parking is horrible! The lot is so small it was very hard to park your car much less turn around once you entered the property.
• Greg (4/5): not very good - No breakfast provided better parking location
• Linda (7/5): We plan to return in May!! - We liked location- We really enjoyed having an apartment! Had two separate bedrooms with small kitchenette. Had a sleep sofa. It felt like ‘home’ for our week of vacation! The bathroom was on the small side- but certainly doable
• Margrét Dan (10/5): -
• Larry (6/5): -
• Rodney (9/5): - The price The beds are a bit stiff
• Melissa (10/5): Will definitely be back - Everything
• Sarah (10/5): -
• Nell Marie (9/5): - The motel's location was very good for us. Accommodations were great and everything we needed in a compact suite/ apartment. I would definitely stay there again and recommend it for others.
• Nicole (10/5): - Great location. The room was clean and nicely furnished. We felt comfortable and would stay there again anytime.
• Kimmy (10/5): -
• Angela (6/5): Good deal, decent location. Very small room. - Location, freshly painted, updated. Very small room. Pillows terrible.
• Kelly (8/5): -
• Shannon (7/5): - Quiet The bed was to small. It was suppose to be a Queen but it didn’t feel like it
• Heather (9/5): -
• Fred (6/5): -
• lisa (8/5): - It was close to things I want too do. Short walk to beach The tv didn't work and the bed was to soft for my back.
• David (5/5): Okay for a one night stay bring clean sheets and a blanket - The location was good The bed comforter and sheets had stains in them ugh not good hair on the towels and the air conditioner smelled when the compressor kicked off
• carriejo (10/5): Great stay - I love the location. It was a good deal for a small family the staff was super friendly and helpful No complaints here
• Deborah (4/5): Bed uncomfortable - Dog friendly and close to beach Outdated furniture & 1 if the beds was extremely soft & not usable. AC was very loud & blew directly on bed so not a comfy sleep atmosphere. Blinds didn’t block sunrise at all.
• Darin (10/5): -
• Bowling (8/5): - Location No ice
• Gage (1/5): That hotel needs several major upgrades, if I could rate lower I would - Not much Towels, bedsheets, pillows, covered in long black hair— found dead bugs in bed and on the floor though out the room as well as a huge cockroach right outside our room so was not a pleasant stay to say the least
• Sutton (7/5): All in All it was ok it had its down falls but the location was good - The area close by beach walking distance to restaurant The room was out dated the oven was out dated the bed couch was filthy the sheet on bed was stained up I'm glad I bring my own sheets and comforter for reasons like this flies everywhere the stove only had one al that worked could only cook one thing at a time
• Giulia (2/5): Motel di bassa categoria e costoso - l'unica cosa positiva era la posizione, vicino al mare stanza brutta, sporca e piena di umidità. Al check in non c'era nessuno, abbiamo dovuto chiamare per farci dare un codice per aprire la porta. Se lo mandavano in automatico avrebbero reso tutto più semplice.
• Kathleen (8/5): KS Labor Day Review - Convenient location. Apartment style with 2 separate bedrooms and covered porch outside with chairs. Clean and comfortable. The apartment definitely needs updates, especially the bathroom/shower and the stove/oven. Also, the electric fan in the first bedroom was dusty/dirty.
