    It needs a good cleaning and some updates. I Had sand throughout the room and TV reception was horrible. The bed 🤣 imagine sleeping on a fullsize board and laying a comforter ontop of it... OVERALL I wasn't in my room but to change clothes,shower , and sleep IF IT HELPS 😉 The Shower Was exceptional 👌

    Walking a half block to the Sandy Beach & Boardwalk Is 👌 Perfect The view from the window & room I was in, was nice with a wonderful breeze in the evening hrs. People on foot heading to & from the boardwalk & beach, sounds of children swimming next door and many riding bicycles.

    Bring extra towels, blankets, and sheets. Unsure if we’d return unless it got fixed up.

    We stayed in the full bed room option, and we got what we paid for. I somewhat felt unsafe at night; the door locks were a little hard to use and the bottom of the door didn’t completely reach the floor. We weren’t able to use the towels given to us because they were stained. We also did not feel comfortable sleeping on the sheets/mattress because of said stains and instead used our own towels to shower/blankets to sleep. This is an extremely easy fix for the owner. Our toilet also stopped working halfway through our stay which lead to trips to the nearest Wawa at night. The flooring seemed unclean and we didn’t walk on it without shoes on. All this place needs is a decent paint job, clean, unstained sheets that actually fit the bed, a different housekeeping staff (if there is one) and a different layout within the room. This place definitely does have potential with a renovation.

    The location did it for us. That was the only decent aspect. We definitely got what we paid for. A good thing was that we were given a parking pass for the days we were there (only if you were able to give a credit card to keep on file) so we did not have to fight with the meters.

    For me - difficult to climb external stairs to 1960-1980 beach house. Room was clean but cramped with extremely loud under window A/C unit duct tape sealed.

    Not completely unexpected of a beach "house" hotel. It was fine for one (or two nights). Super great location in Rehobeth Beach. Had simple amenities I did not expect in bathroom

    It was dirty and slightly shabby. The appliances were unplugged when we arrived to save money. The room had been cleaned so close to check in the table was still wet. There were crumbs under the mattress and in the corner of the bathroom. The room was as small as they come, barely big enough for the bed. There was barely any parking available near this location, and most of it was pay by hour, though that isn’t the motels fault: That’s just part of being close to the beach. The manager was tired and disgruntled any time I saw him. Overall, for 80 bucks within two blocks of the beach, I kind of got what I expected.

    Eh, you get what you pay for. The best thing about it was it was cheap and close to the beach, but that was about it. Also the manager did come when you called, so that was appreciated. While he wasn’t pleasant per say, he was at least present.

    The tv didn’t work no matter how many times we attempted to connect it to the internet. It was barely cleaned, we found things from previous guests in the refrigerator and under the futon. Sheets were thrown on the bed in disarray like someone had recently slept in it when we arrived. Plugs were burnt up and things were falling apart or poorly constructed.

    It was close to the beach.

    Even though they say they clean, the bed did NOT look cleaned. We asked for new sheets and when we took the ones on the beds off, we found a SOCK underneath. Either way, other reviews on different sites mentioned bed bugs (luckily we didn't experience any but I wouldn't be surprised if we did).

    Really close to the beach and convenient for parking ($25 for the day), BUT it was crammed underneath a balcony and you have to leave your phone number and room number in case somebody is blocked in. Bathrooms did look renovated. Good for someone on a budget, but if I could do it again I'd just a room at the hotel on the same street.
