First of all I want to say that the poor press is unwarranted!!!! A Summer Place is a quaint throw back to an earlier era!! The manager is just the same. Very kind and affable! He greeted my 6 yr old son and I upon arrival from Owings Mills MD with a gentiel demeanor and made us feel at home.... More

We just stayed here one month ago, after deciding on a whim to get away to the beach! Since most people plan a beach vacation months in advance, and we decided to plan ours just DAYS in advance, we knew that finding accomodations in Rehoboth would be challenging, to say the least. But, after we both scoured the internet for... More

Unfortunately, I booked my room through Hotels.com. When the reservation confirmed, it was at a price $60 a night higher than advertised. Hotels.com said I'd have to talk to the hotel. The Summer Place agreed that Hotels.com were awful, but weren't going to refund my money. When I arrived, I walk into the dirty little (so-called) lobby and the clerk... More

We have been several times over several years to this wonderful, decent, cheap place a block from the beach, and two blocks from Rehoboth's main shopping street with parking. We usually stay when we go to the beach on the spur of the moment during the week. A room for two, with a full sized bed, dorm refrigerate, microwave and... More

First off, the microwave and refrigerator were located a couple feet from the bathtub and toilet Second - the refrigerator had tons of black mold in it. When I brought this up to the owner he said simply, "well if you had told us about it earlier we would have just wiped it off" wiped it off?? How about disinfect!?... More

This place is gross, small and loud. I booked this hotel because it was close to the beach and had parking (for $15 extra per day, however) and it was cheaper than some of the other hotels in the area. We had the smallest room of the place (#4) and when I say small, it was closet small. Don't get... More

We were amazed at the price. We booked it, loved it's proximity to the oceanfront and shops and more, I thought I felt something in the night, but when I got home I literally saw a couple of bed bugs on my arm. If the bed bug issue is resolved, than it's worth the stay. More

Wow this was a bittersweet comment from someone who stayed over a year ago. All rooms have been professionally treated for bedbugs for over a year and are on a monthly contract. The rooms have also been HEAT TREATED i.e heated to 135 degrees and held for 5 hours. We have had no complaints since. Hope you come back soon More

If you go to the beach to go to the beach, then this place is for you. It is located one block from the beach and a couple of blocks from all of the fun and food. We stayed 4th of July week and had a great time. Our room was relatively small and a bit dated but clean and... More

You have to go to this hotel with the right mind set if you're going to enjoy it. The mind set is, don't expect anything, but relax, enjoy your weekend at the beach, and the great location! With sky-high rates at most beach-front hotels we choose to try this place. With its location, it's still not dirt-cheap, but was more... More

Yes we have a great location. We have been in this location for 106 years and the zoning has changed since then. We are the only business left on this corner. This building was built when there wernt cars and rooms are small and furnished as best we can. Weve remodeled bathrooms, put in new beds, flat screen tvs etc. More
