We stayed during the week and were able to get a good price for a Deluxe Ocean View room. It is a typical motel room, amenity-wise- mini fridge, microwave, tv, comfy bed, etc. The bathroom had a walk-in shower that is on the small side, so maybe not ideal for larger humans. Phenomenal view! My only complaint about the room itself (and this is not exclusive to this motel, it happens everywhere) is that the light switches and door handles, and the walls around them, are dirty. Its kind of a turn off to a place after you've showered and are all fresh and clean then have to reach for a grimy handle or switch. Our check in process had a bump in it. Our room showed in the system as not ready 30 minutes after check in time. The sweet girl at the front desk couldnt get ahold of housekeeping to find out why, ended up running around the property to find someone to ask about it, and finally had to call her manager to find out what she needed to do (she is still new). Turns out housekeeping didnt update their system, our room was ready the whole time, and she felt really bad. She ended up giving us free passes to the Seaside Aquarium to help make up for the delay. But honestly that one-off check in mishap isnt enough to keep us from coming back. Its a nice, reasonably priced and well kept motel that is quiet and right on the beach. We'd use them again.

A little disappointed in the room as it wasn’t as described in the photo. We reserved that one due to “ocean view” and it wasn’t as described. Otherwise it was comfortable.

This hotel was really clean and the staff very friendly. The beach is right outside the hotel. If there is one thing I would change is the quality of the toilet paper.

My Favorite Seaside Accommodations

I LOVE this little motel. Yes, it’s just as old as Seaside, but that’s the nostalgia. You really are OceanFront and above the dunes where you can see. The beds are raised too, so if you’re short or disabled, I would skip here. The front lobby is perfect and the service is wonderful. She is so thoughtful and kind. Don’t stay here if you’re expecting a resort. This is a 1950’s motel. And it’s lovely. Centrally located between the prom and aquarium. Service Animals Only so rooms are clean and quiet. Best view of the lighthouse and ocean
