This motel is less than one star. The rooms smelled of urine (more than one room smelled), the carpet is threadbare indoor/outdoor carpet that at one time was green but is now a nauseating shade of black. The staff sprinkle that powder room deodorizer all over the floor to mask the stench. The beds are misshapen lumps covered with dirty... more

Good budget motel for a great price (thru Expedia) at a great location near the wharf, beach & Boardwalk and within walking distance of downtown. Includes free in room wi-fi, extensive cable TV selection, microwave & refrigerator. The complementary Continental breakfast includes 2 kinds of cereal with milk, orange juice, pastries & coffee. more

Nice and relatively spacious rooms, friendly staff, great location (just around the corner to the beach). and all this for a budget price! breakfast included. I traveled with my boyfriend and we spontaneously stayed a night, which was the right choice, so that we could enjoy the beach and the promenade the whole evening. The building is a little bit... more

An 'older' facility, but maintained well. Room 209 had a refrigerator and microwave. The staff was nice and helpful. Bed was reasonable, bathroom had small amount of mildew ONLY around the trim area, no big deal. Carpet was older, but not gross like some. Free WiFi with the password from the front desk worked well (2500/450k). You can see the... more

Let me start by saying that growing up we vacationed in Santa Cruz, Capitola, Aptos basically every summer. We hardly ever stayed in hotels but would usually camp or rent a beach house with other families. It wasn't until later in life (currently 34) that our family would go the hotel route. We have been to several different hotels now... more

We stopped here after driving up the coastal route, Pre booked online and the web images definately make it look better than reality. The motel is very close to the beach but in a small hollow by the rail lines, it was very dark and not welcoming. The upper rooms were difficult to reach with luggage being up and down... more

They said they were AAA approved--not true. She even took my AAA card and said my discount had been applied. We went to our room put our bags in the room and went to dinner. When we returned ( about 8:30pm) to our room I noticed a few ants on the table. Then a few more. There were ants on... more

The Beachview is okay for one night. It's not especially nice in any way, but it does have a bed and a bathroom and a carpet that many years ago was probably clean and new. On the plus side, it is within walking distance of the wharf, the amusement park, the ocean (for those tough enough to brave 59 degree... more

Arrived in the evening and were initially a bit unsure about the area, but after a walk along the Wharf we arrived back to realise how convenient (but quiet) the location was and our concerns were dispelled. The following morning we arranged a later check out time (no problem) and walked into Downtown (about 15 minutes away) , on returning... more
