Eastern Shore Motel

What guests think

Across reviews of Eastern Shore Motel, guests describe a budget, no‑frills stay with often‑praised friendly staff and a convenient location, but recurring concerns about cleanliness, including odors, bugs, and worn or damaged linens and furnishings.

Amenities are minimal, with several missing in‑room basics, a single hard‑to‑access ice machine, and no pool noted; some guests also struggled to get extra towels. Experiences with rooms vary, as some found them spacious or functional, while others reported maintenance problems or disruptive noise from traffic or nearby areas. Overall, expect a very basic roadside stop with clear trade‑offs.

This motel is decent if you're just looking for somewhere to lay your head for a night. It was spacious, we had a double bed room, and it includes a microwave and a small fridge. The Waffle House is next to it, and there's a Walmart down the road. We were heading to Pensacola Beach which is only about an hour away, and this option was way cheaper than staying IN Pensacola. Friendly staff, both at arrival and departure (different staff members). No issue with our service dog as well. Pets are actually accepted at this location, with a deposit, or fee, can't remember which one. Definitely a no-frills motel, and we always travel with our own blankets, since motel blankets tend to be thin. I would recommend this place, especially for those eventually traveling to Pensacola.

Really a low rent motel. no ice buckets, one ice machine located outside behind the motel, dangerous area, and moldy ice machine. Just an uncomfortable stay.

I would not recommend this property. Sheets were threadbare. Bugs in the room. No clock, no phone. No place to hang garments, no iron, no hair dryer, no pool. On the plus side the water got hot very quickly, the tub was clean and the refrigerator worked well. I did not have an opportunity to use the microwave. If you just need to get off the road for the night, this motel is adequate. For anything else, it was not good.

This hotel was old, run down, and dirty. The beds were noisy and uncomfortable. The room had stains and marks on the floors and walls leaving you to wonder if it was dirty or just needed remodeled. The bedding was mismatched and had holes that appeared to be cigarette burns in it. The room had an ingrained smell of old cigarettes.

Room was dirty. Tables unclean, just overall not clean. Front desk staff was friendly during check in. We only got 2 towels, on hand towel and one wash cloth in our room. When we went to ask for more we were told only housekeeping has access to them and they were not on site until the next day. This is unacceptable.

The room smelled like lysol, cigarettes, and standing water. The climate control unit was pumping condensation under the linoleum flooring, so we were greeted by a puddle of water getting out of bed the next morning. I can't imagine leaking, standing water is very safe right below the outlet of an electric unit! There was hair on the bathroom floor and in the shower, no screens on the faucet so water sprayed everywhere, and fingerprints (at least I hope that's what they were) on the headboard. The sheets felt damp and smelled like straight cleaning solution. If there had been any other availabilities in the area for our dates, I would've left! Unfortunately, childbirth doesn't wait for terrible hotels, so the choice was miss a birth or deal with lodgings. We opted to prioritize the first one. The only redeeming factor was the staff. If they kept the regular staff and just hired better cleaners and maintenance, this could be a decent budget hotel. Unless that happens, if you value good sleep, DO NOT BOOK HERE.

Took one look and smell of the room, then left without staying there. Curtains were dry-rotted, lights didn't all work, the sheets had someone else's hair in them, the room smelled like smoke, there were broken down cars in the parking lot, and the people we met outside "living" there were highly questionable. We were there 10 minutes and left as fast as we could. I want my money back

We checked in got to the room it was nothing like the pictures on the Internet . The room smelled like stale cigarette smoke, and mold. We found mold growing around the tub. There was a hole in the ceiling . Cigarette burns on the comforter. We asked for a refund bc we developed breathing issues due to the mold. We were not granted one. I would not recommend this place to anyone.

Disgusting. Arrived at 11pm after our ball game and was told our room was given to someone else. Had to wait 30 mins for them to clean another room. Once we entered, dirty floor, stained sheets that were not cleaned. Everything was broken. AC barely worked spitting out wet air. Slept on top of the comforter with clothes on. Spent the first hour once we were in the room looking for another hotel to go to. On a positive note, the man I believe was the manager, was working hard, just not doing a good job. If you are a husband, do not take your family here.
