Motel reminded me of motels that people live in full time. Our room had coffee but no coffee maker an ironing board but no iron. They had a picture of a pier on their website but there was no pier. There was a very loud party in the next room that lasted well into the morning but I never saw a manager or the office open just a note saying if you want to check in or need something, call a number. Horrible.

The room was dirty and smelled of mold and cigarettes. When we arrived the front desk was unoccupied at 7:00pm. We had to call a number to check in. Upon arriving at the room. There was no Air conditioning turned in and the room was disgusting. We promptly left and found far superior accommodations in Chincoteague for only slightly more per night. I have never left a negative review ever. This is the first negative review I have ever left.

Liked: Cleanliness
The plastic pool chairs were broken so you could not lay back in the sun. Nobody was in the office, you had to make a phone call and when somebody became available they would either meet you in the office which was always locked or they would come to your room to see what you needed, so you had to wait before you could go anywhere

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
This place was unacceptable. We arrived at check in time and no management or staff were on the premises. After a phone call with other waiting guests, we were able to retrieve our key from a box. I reserved a room with a "kitchen" but found the stove dirty with two burners disconnected and broken, a filthy microwave, and a dirty fridge. There was no deadbolt on the door, and you could see daylight between the door and the jamb. The single hotel washing machine was out of order and full of water. The dryer was out of order and full of rolls of toilet paper. Seriously. We witnessed two other families call management, request a refund, and promptly leave. We did the same. Fortunately, we were able to find a much better place a few miles away for a few hundred more and Expedia immediately started the refund process. Stay away from this place. It’s a dump and needs new management.

This property usually has decent rooms, but the larger kitchenette room is terrible. There was a mildew smell i was trying to mask, floors felt uneven underneath, the space was outdated, and I had bed bugs on me after slept. Also the kitchenette has no pots, utensils, or plates - so bring your own. Of course, you get what you paid for, but you're better of staying in one of their basic rooms which aren't bad.

Stayed 3 days, enjoyed

Nice place, family owned hotel. Across road from the water. Theres a nice pier to walk out on the water if you want. The room had a nice cold fridge, microwave, ice machine was close by. Small pool was great for my daughter. Rooms all on 1 floor, chairs there to sit outside. The pool closed too early for us, but we understood. We had a great time, got food delivery from a local restaurant, and were able to find lots of things to do.

Very close to the water, Main Street in all restaurants. Nice day off. Doesn’t look like much for the outside, but the rooms are spacious, well appointed. Refrigerator, two sinks. Too nice beds, microwave, bath, and shower. Coffee in the room and free continental breakfast. I recommend it. Do not judge a book by its outside cover. The rooms are really nice.
