"The hotel was dirty and only had two elevators at opposite ends of the building. I got stuck in one for 8 minutes, which was scary. The carpet in my room was filthy. The sand around the indoor pool wasn't removed, and there were weeds everywhere on the grounds.2018-08-31"
"Close to the beach. An older hotel that's showing its age, but the room was big and had lots of beds, and every room had a bay view. No dishes in the room, and bring your own paper products. Great place for families with kids, with both an indoor and outdoor pool. The hotel was understaffed, but the employees worked hard to meet the needs of guests. Check-in was slow, and the elevators took forever; we used the stairs most of the time.2018-08-01"
"Not a bad place to stay, but it was inconvenient to navigate. The ice machines weren't conveniently located, and I had to go through two breezeways with luggage, which was difficult for a physically challenged person. The view was spectacular.2019-12-02"
"The hotel room wasn't thoroughly cleaned; there was old food in the fridge, and the furniture was dusty.2019-11-18"
"The coffee and microwave in my hotel room didn't work, and it took a long time for the maintenance worker to deal with the malfunctioning safe. On a positive note, the beachfront setting can truly calm you down.2015-11-03"
"This motel was awful, and the staff was even worse. Upon arrival, we were told there were no rooms available, but suddenly she found a non-smoking room. Unfortunately, it reeked of cigarette smoke. There were people outside smoking marijuana. A large truck was running in the parking lot. Stay somewhere else.2021-07-19"
"The motel room was clean, but there was a dead roach on the carpet. Check-in went well.2017-09-22"
"The motel was clean. If I were staying for more than a night, I'd choose a more updated property.2016-12-28"

"A bit far from the beach in an area without a lot of traffic. The motel was quiet and clean. We loved it here and plan to stay again.2018-08-04"
"About a 15-minute walk to the beach. The motel was quiet, peaceful, and clean, and the front desk clerk was helpful and polite. Nice place to stay.2018-04-07"
"We had a nice motel stay, but our room smelled like smoke and made it hard to sleep. The staff was nice and helpful, but no other rooms were available. We asked for a clean set of bedsheets the next day and got them with no problem. The shower curtain rod was loose, so the curtain hung to one side. The guests next door came back late one night and made a lot of noise for over an hour. Not much selection at breakfast, and the dining room needed monitoring.2017-08-15"
"The hotel needed to be refurbished. The room was clean, and the view was nice. The glass in several areas had lots its vacuum and was cloudy. Check-in was a zoo, and my room wasn't ready on time. Parking was challenging and involved crossing Atlantic Blvd. Not enough luggage carts. An OK place to stay, but it wouldn't be my 1st choice.2023-05-15"
"The hotel room was clean, and the ocean was great. The food at the Square Whale was terrible and overpriced; don't eat there.2022-04-14"
"Good location. We had a pleasant hotel stay. All the employees were kind and responded quickly to any issues. The toilet in our room made a strange noise, and it was fixed within an hour of my reporting the problem. No TV guide in the room, and the cable TV selection was poor. The pool was clean, and the restaurants were nice. We enjoyed the breakfast buffet.2020-09-16"
"The hotel was clean, and the room and bed were fine, but the heater fan was so noisy it sounded like an airplane coming in the room.2022-03-12"
"Great hotel, especially if you're going to the Norfolk base. Ask for a room with a balcony overlooking the water.2019-05-20"
"Great customer service, but a horrible place to stay. Didn't feel safe walking in the neighborhood. The room was a disappointment, and we couldn't sleep because of the loud AC and noise from neighboring rooms. The curtains didn't adequately block out light. We'd planned to stay at this motel for six nights, but left after one.2015-10-06"

How Do We Define Motel?
To us, motels are smaller lodgings that have rooms you can enter directly from the parking area.
At hotels, on the other hand, you can enter your room only through a hall inside the building.
Hotel Booking Tips
Beware of non-refundable reservations that could cost you a lot of money if you change or cancel them. +Non-refundable reservations are a gamble that will usually save you less than $10. If you make a $90 non-refundable reservation instead of a $100 refundable booking, you are betting $90 to win $10. Would you do that in Las Vegas? -
Don't assume you can cancel a non-refundable reservation without penalty if you notify the hotel weeks or even months in advance. +Often you cannot because some hotels' profit strategy is to get paid more than once for the same room for the same night. -
Always read cancellation policies carefully before you make a reservation. + When is the latest date and time you can cancel without penalty? - More >
When you make a reservation, you will receive a confirmation email. Take a copy with you to the hotel.
The earlier in the afternoon you check into a hotel, the more likely you will get a room or suite that matches your preferences.
