I really liked the room and location, beds were clean and comfortable but I don’t think they wash the floors in between renters because I had to wear my flip flops or my feet would get filthy, Some trash was left behind under the sink cabinet as well.

Not enough parking for clients, very noisy and disruptive, deadbolt was not secured properly and property aging not updated. $400.00 per night not worth the money and will stay elsewhere next time.

Very noisy after midnight, teenage girls and boys laughing and talking very loudly on balconies and stairways on 3 different occasions from 1:15am and on,car alarms going off repeatedly for extended periods of time. And then the Train! Not very noticeable during the day but came through blowing the horns at least 3 times between 11:00pm and 6:00am No parking available.. Had to park in a satellite lot across the street. Will never return

Well, it's hard for me to write a negative review because "dated" seems to be the theme in Old Orchard. The amount of dust and lost items under the bureau was minor. The bathroom shower door was broken on arrival, we couldn't shower on day one due to flooding the bathroom (and you want to shower at a place like OOB). My child refused to touch the toilet because it was "gross".

Staff was super friendly & informative. It’s an older motel in a beach town, but it’s very well maintained. Room cleanliness, staff presence, room service quality are all excellent. Definitely will be our first choice for future trips to Old Orchard Beach.
