Chateau Motel

Reviewer: Not provided on Wed 22 Jun 2011 rated 2 out of 10.

This hotel is a bird sanctuary for thousands of birds who are attracted to the gravel on the roof of the motel, as I was told. Some type of environmental protection for the birds. As a result there is hardly a square yard of the grounds, pool area, pool chairs not covered by bird droppings. After two days my car was covered in bird droppings. This is not a motel, it is a Bird Sanctuary. I suggested to a clerk they should give each guest a free car wash either daily or upon check-out. The clerk said there was nothing they could do about that. In other words, it's not our problem as you are only the guest/customer/victim. Great attitude, sure to garner customer loyalty and repeat business, not to mention referrals and recommendations.<BR><BR> If you stay at the Chateau, bring a cover for your entire car or else is will be splattered each day and your paint job could be ruined. Also, don't look up at the sky or you might get something in your eye you don't want.<BR><BR> Motel is retro 1970's, 80's and in serious need of updating and remodeling. Carpet needed to be replaced.<BR>Floor was nasty. Had bed spreads and curtains to match the 70's, 80's decor. Could be the originals.<BR><BR>A great place for Spring Breakers. I don't think they could damage anything of value.<BR><BR><BR><BR>

My wife and I went to this hotel for vacation. This was the first time I had seen the ocean and the room was perfect and our kids really loved it.

Positives: I liked that every room was a ocean view room.

This hotel was great for our purposes, inexpensive beach front view with a pool. we loved the beds, the view, and the beach access. the room could have used a little more thought as to decor and placement of furniture, but it suited our needs perfectly. the only thing we had a problem with was that when we requested maid service, all they did was replace the towels, and cleaned nothing. The staff was very considerate and helpful. Otherwise, I would definitely visit again!

Positives: The hotel had a great view and comfortable beds.

Negatives: The decor could have been a bit more up to date.

The staff at the office was not very concerned on you having to wait on them to have their own personal conversations before they waited on you, have cleaned motel rooms before and even if the motel is on the beach they need to clean the sand out of the bathroom floors. I feel like the floors in the room had not even been cleaned. There was a candy bar by the ironing board as soon as you walked in the room, as we arrived on the first day. this is inexcusable!

Positives: The view.

Negatives: Smelly.

It was alright other than being disappointed about the view.

Positives: Location is convenient to other attractions.

I loved it and it made the vacation excellent. My room wasn't worth $175 per night but the $99 I got it on price line for made it totally worth it!

Positives: It was right on the beach.

Negatives: The rooms weren't 5 star quality.
