    Crashed at this scenic hotel after a LONG 10hr trip from FL to VA. Our room was super clean, the beds were so nice. We honestly crashed immediately 😅 didn't even get to check out the pool or the complimentary breakfast. We'd definitely stay here again.

    The hotel has parking for the guests, a pool that is cleaned daily, a coffee and tea machine at the reception area and snacks for purchase. The hotel also has a picnic, barbecue, sunning and shaded areas with brand new outdoor furniture and a cornhole game area. The hotel is children and pet friendly. As a “beach” hotel, it’s an excellent choice. I’m enjoying my stay and would highly recommend.

    The location, the beach access was right there. You can easily walk to the beach and the bay is so calm. WiFi did not work. Our tv in the living room did not work. We reported it the day we got in and was not resolved. Loud people waking us up even at 3 am. Smelled some we*d… some sketchy neighborhood. Breakfast was ok, no variety every morning. But the lady who works there is very nice (kitchen).

    Great stay. I’d it again by myself or with my wife but I wouldn’t want her to stay by herself. Well lit but shady spots at night. No security. Elevators smelled like cigarettes because not everyone oveys rules and some smoke on outside stairs by apartment entrances. Again, no security. Loved beach access and peaceful atmosphere. My wife enjoyed the coffee, small breakfast, and outdoor dining patio.

    Front office very friendly and the hotel is Pet friendly and well equipped fenced pet place, the breakfast is good but they run out of few items quite often so by the time you want a specific item you may not have it. Asking to refill made the one of the staff not so happy so adjusted with many other items that were available. The beach is not something like the boardwalk type it has coastal beach renourishment metal pipes , so swimmers use caution and the beach also has grass access points and dune grass all along, along with lots of seaweed,algae, and dead coral washed up the shore and if one likes a lighter crowd beach to read book in peace, this beach works.

    Having a Beachview was the only nice thing. I spent my vacation there after asking for a smoke room and was told we can smoke on the balcony by a staff member then to be told I couldn't. Then they never came to clean my room, after being there for 2 days ( which I was there for a total of 5 days) they never came to bring me clean towels and wash cloths. The employees at the breakfast were very mean and had bad attitudes. I should have asked for a full refund because my vacation was ruined with their experience.

The cleaning staff isn't the best, but overall, it was good for the price and I would definitely stay there again.

We had already paid through Booking.com 2 days prior to checking in & then was charged again by Best Western when we checked in. I’ve never had an issue before when paying through Booking.com. I’ve already contacted Booking.com because Best Western said they couldn’t refund us. This has been really inconvenient because it maxed out my son’s credit card & now he can’t use it until he gets credited back one of the charges.

    I stayed in the apartment (manager's suite) for my birthday. The 2 bedroom apartment is really nice. I only get that unit every visit. I wish there was more than just that 1. Has the perfect amount of room. I feel like I'm at home. The stove and oven was replaced with a cook top. I usually host my annual Thanksgiving Dinner here and prepare everything. This time, I was going to make peach cobbler. I go to turn on the oven and it wasn't there. ?. I love the fact that the kitchen table was replaced, but I don't like the folding table. Doesn't fit the decor. Other than that, everything else was perfect.

People above took a shower and you cluld hear water dripping. I found a puddle forming from water coming from under the kick board of bathroom. Right below where it was dripping. The $30 per pet PER NIGHT was ridiculous. I was travelling with 2. I can see a fee but refund at least half when staying for longer than a night!! I was there for 4 nights! The fees DOUBLED my price to stay!!

    Staff- asked front desk to explain why I paid full price on Expedia then was charged $116.43. She seemed dazed and confused and couldn’t figure it out. She said she would have manager call, but that never happened. From her point of view, maybe $100 deposit, which is more than most hotels, but she had no explanation for the $16.43. So, frustrated, I ask her to just print my receipt so I would have backup. She said she couldn’t do that because there’s nothing to print. I left SMH. If they don’t get it right I’ll just dispute credit charge. Really not a nice stay at all. View of Bay was good. Nice place to walk, also.

    We had a great stay. The layout of the family suite splits the space into 2 separate rooms, which we really appreciated (no door between the rooms, though). The property is right on the beach; some rooms have a beach view (ours didn't). Free breakfast goes till 10. We stayed Sat/Sun, and there was a different menu each day (plain omelet/ home fries/ sausage - Sat; bacon/ scrambled eggs/ biscuit and gravy - Sun.). Cons: The hotel is right by the main road, so the noise of traffic is quite loud and constant even in the evening. However, you can't hear it when you're behind the building and on the beach. It does make going out very convenient.

    It was okay. The view is great and since it’s literally on the beach, it’s just a few steps from it. The room was averagely cleaned. I will say, the bath tub was clogged with water and it turned out it was because of the stopper but I assumed house cleaning would’ve done a check before we arrived. I found some stains on the bed cover so I removed it. Breakfast was also okay. The staff was really nice and welcoming. Overall, if it’s a quick stay, it works.

    The only area for improvement would be the breakfast experience. The food was good and provided a nice start to the day, but I noticed that about 20 minutes before breakfast was scheduled to end, the attendant began announcing the upcoming closure and started cleaning and sweeping. This approach felt a bit rushed and made it difficult for guests to finish their meals comfortably. It would be better if cleanup began after the official breakfast hours, so guests could enjoy their food and find a place to sit without feeling hurried. A more considerate cleanup schedule would definitely improve the overall experience.

Room was clean n well appointed. They had just freshly painted the exterior of the building. Looked very nice. Great price considering that breakfast was included and there was a coffee maker in the room n the lobby area. Michelle the housekeeper was all smiles and gave us extra towels. We met Tina at the frontdesk on the way out. Super accommodating. And let me quick mention that this hotel has a lil fenced in dog park relief area and an expansive beach to walk your dog.

    Good time of year to visit, neither busy nor lonely. Breakfast selection good including yogurt machine with toppings. Probably a lot of guests track in sand on the hard surface room floors but staff didn't mop or vac it up so floor rather gritty which made us keep shoes on and continue to leave more sand. They changed wifi password which was inconvenient but a sign they take security seriously which we respect.

Beach access was a bear to trod down to. Our view of the ocean was blocked by the dunes. Not exactly what I expected and very, very disappointed.

    There also was a slight musty odor.i do understand that they had some coastal flooding days before. So i tried to be understanding, once i was told the room was out of order and should not have been rented. I was pretty upset. The view was lovely but we didn't sleep much because the noise.

    The room appearance was very nice and looked like it had been recently updated however it smelled awful like really cheap disinfectant. Even though the room looked very clean, it honestly smelled like a nursing home. The disinfectant smell is so strong, I wonder if it was an attempt to cover up another smell….

    Liked that hostess was accommodating. We had our dog along. They were to replace the sofa bed mattresses yesterday. Concerned how that might be upsetting to our crated dog. She changed us to a room without a sofa bed so they did not need to access our room with the dog.

    The room I was put it was noisy all night long. I also was put into a dirty room in the fridge there was someone’s hair the floors were dirty and there was water all over the sink in the bathroom and something spattered all over the wall in the bathroom there was pee on the toilet seat and black stuff on the shower curtain. I talked to the manager and was told they couldnt refund me and I should’ve told them about it when I noticed everything. It was late and I was exhausted from traveling. It was almost like it was my fault for not saying something sooner. The manager told me that she could give me points on my account and that didn’t happen. So I reached out to Expedia to step in for a refund and the hotel declined the request and Expedia closed the case I had against them. Only thing good about the stay was the breakfast in my opinion. I will never stay and will tell all my military friends not to as well.

    If you just want somewhere to stay and have ridiculously close access to a not crowded beach as well as a pool, this is the place for you. We had a suite which had 2 different bed rooms, one had a kitchenette (no utensils, plates, or cookware fyi), and the other had the bathroom. They were recently renovated and did not have any carpet. Our room was pet friendly and they have an outdoor fenced in pet area. Apparently the rooms in th tower with balconies had carpet still which was gross with the sand and whatnot (heard from another person staying at the hotel there). Breakfast was a normal hotel breakfast but well stocked even though people took plates upon plates of food out of the dining area to their rooms. The lobby had a coffee machine which had better and stronger coffee ans even did espresso drinks. We never used room service or cleaning of our room because of our dog so can't comment there. We would definitely come back. Can't beat the access and rooms for the price.

    Checking in was so complicated. I had to cancel my reservation to re book because I could not use my parents if even though they were staying with us and they would also be in the same room. The staff was no able to work something else out or anything. They took the money off my card and still had to pay to rebook so the money already had took 5 to 7 business days to come back and I came on a Saturday

    It was nice for me and my family we booked two suites and have a good vacation. A couple of thing i would like to point out. 1). You should had small brooms and dust pans to each room. I asked house keeping and they had nothing. 2). Breakfast should be more then just pork sausages everyday. We were there for 6 days and everyday except 1 pork sausages was on the menu for breakfast. Other then that we had a good time

    It was nice as far as the location and the beach being in such close proximity. But I guess that’s all you’re paying for when you stay here cause the room was not very clean I got a suite with a kitchen and all but the kitchen floor was sticky and a lot of the surfaces were sticky. There was hair all over the room. The breakfast room was very small and each morning it’s filled to capacity. There was a lot of structural damage to the room. And the front desk staff specifically were all over the place I worked front desk at a hotel for many years and I was appalled at how I was handled they were arguing with one another In front of guests and they were very impatient. My family and I were determined to have a good vacation so thank goodness I didn’t base my trip solely on my experience at this hotel or else we would’ve had an awful time but you get what you pay for and this was all we could afford. The pool was a great addition and it was very nice.

    Property location was perfect, beach access right outside of motel. This bayside beach is not busy and low rise tides so perfect if you don’t want to be around a huge crowd. The front desk staff was so kind. I was able to text the front desk while still being on the beach asking them to bring towels to the room which was so convenient. The motel also offers free breakfast ( cereal, toast, baked goods, coffee, waffles, etc ) which is very nice not spending money on going out to breakfast every day. The room itself was dirty, when we arrived the carpet was dirty with crumbs and sand all over & carpet was pulled up in areas. The desk & chair in the room had crumbs all over. The bed itself was clean though, checked thoroughly for bed bugs and none to be found. Every time we used the shower ( yes the fan was on ) the fire alarm went off which was a bit concerning. Overall the location is perfect the stay would have been better if room was throughly cleaned.

    The location of this property being on the shore of the Chesapeake Bay and the view from our room balcony was the best. We enjoyed sitting out there and just taking it all in. A downside to that was our neighbors enjoyed relaxing on their balcony with marijuana and it was a little much at times (even though the property is 100% smoke free). The room was clean and comfortable (the floor could've been a little cleaner) and had a separate area for the fridge, microwave and coffee maker which I liked. We stayed 3 nights but only had housekeeping stop in one day and switch out some towels - we didn't have a door hanger in our room and I didn't call to request service so not a big deal. The daily breakfast is wonderful! Different egg and meat choice each day, waffles, cereal, breads, yogurt, fruit, juices and some good hot coffee. We definitely enjoyed the breakfast! This hotel is older but its in a beachfront spot, is clean with a great breakfast and a friendly and helpful staff - I would definitely stay again.

    The room was spacious and beds were comfy- the room seemed more updated for the age of the property. The bathroom was inconveniently small and needs a lot of updating- it seemed dirty given the age, even though it was probably thoroughly cleaned. Breakfast was just okay- one in our party got sick so we didn’t eat it after the first two days. The staff was friendly, but we did have to request items since they don’t clean the rooms daily. There is not much at all to do in the area, and I wouldn’t consider it a safe walkable place. My biggest issue was the marijuana smell that seems to linger in the elevator- I switched to climbing stairs to avoid it! Not the worst place I’ve stayed, but can certainly use improvements.
