Opiniones de los huéspedes

En el Viking Motel, los huéspedes describen una estancia económica con experiencias muy variadas en cuanto a limpieza, mantenimiento y servicio, que van desde visitas sin problemas hasta serios inconvenientes con plagas, olores y condiciones anticuadas.

Muchos valoran el acceso directo a la playa y los precios bajos. Las instalaciones son limitadas: el ascensor suele estar fuera de servicio, el aparcamiento es estrecho con desbordamiento al otro lado de la calle y a algunas cocinas les falta microondas. El servicio es inconsistente: algunos elogian al personal amable, mientras que otros informan de largas colas, depósitos estrictos en efectivo y cargos adicionales, y una limpieza limitada. Espere una estancia básica y sin lujos, ideal para viajeros con presupuesto limitado que priorizan la ubicación por encima del confort.

The property was a place lay our heads, didnt spend much time there other than to sleep. Carpet was 20 years old, sticky, and rest of furniture and appliances were dated, checking in found out we were "lucky" cause the elevator just got fixed after being down a year. Pool was nice and clean and we were steps away from beach and within walking distance of boardwalk so ultimately worked out for what we needed.

The room we picked was Ocean view.We were on bottom floor by the laundry room..Barely a view of the ocean.The room itself was half cleaned.Found a sock and a kids toy left under bed from previous guest.The bedding was ripped and unwashed and it stunk of body odor.The chairs at the dining table were outdated and cushions were so dirty i had to put a towel down to sit there.The bathroom was decent .Said kitchen but no microwave which i thought odd.Pool was nice and clean .Not much parking so you have to park across street.It is pet friendly which we didnt realize.The carpet had stains and ripped.Very close access th beach which was nice.So if you can get a cheap rate it may be worth it.

The stay was nothing special. Like all hotels there are pros and cons. The PRO's ... the location is right on the beach. The price was fair. The beds were comfortable. There were clean towels and linens. They have an outdoor pool which was cleaned daily and there are options to use indoor pools at there sister facilities. The check in was quick and the front desk people were efficient. The CON's.... The hotel definitely could use some updates. The carpet looks dirty and dingy. The plaster on the walls was chipping away. Everything was old and dated ( stove, cabinetry, etc.) The elevator has not worked in months ( I stayed here back in early June and it was out of order). There is very little parking directly in front of the building, but there is additional parking across the street. There is an additional resort fee that is $18 per day and there is a $100 cash deposit for using 3rd party booking. You do get your $100 deposit back at checkout as long as you don't break or steal anything. All in all you get what you pay for. The Oceanfront Viking Hotel was not bad, but if you are looking for something nice this is probably not the place for you. I would like to state that i have worked in housekeeping at a hotel and i always check for bedbugs. I have not encountered this problem at this establishment.

Multiple fees added that were not mentioned on Expedia including a $54 non refundable resort fee. $100 cash refundable deposit. Large no refundable pet fee! Litter all o er the property! Room was clean. Ice machine broken. No microwave in the room-I missed this in the room description. Ocean view! Short walk to beach. Small parking lot with additional parking across the street. No luggage trolleys so plan on multiple trips to car both upon arrival and departure. Staff friendly.

This resort is old, and by old I mean still use real keys, which only work on the door lock, not the dead bold Mold on ceiling, stains in bathtub, looked like a crack house Ice machine - broken, elevator - broken, parking across the street in a parking lot of another super seedy motel Attendant at the front desk was rude at check in and a different attendant was rude at the checkout, visibly mad that we booked through a third party site. They then required a 100 dollar CASH deposit. Not card even though everything else can be paid by card, a CASH deposit. Absolute worst hotel experience I have ever had and hope to save others the trouble.

I loved it all, the pool was cleaned everyday, the AC was cold. Loved that it had a small kitchen no microwave though. Parking wasn't an issue because we are handicapped in which they designated if full which I really loved. They made my vacation amazing. Staff was amazing very nice and helpful.

Roaches EVERYWHERE! The lady at the front desk was nice, I cannot remember her name. When we got to the room we went to the bathroom and there were two roaches crawling around. I thought that would have been the end of it but it WAS NOT! We went to eat and to the pool and when we came back there were more roaches in the bathroom. When we tried to shower the shower did not drain. There were roaches crawling on the walls and on the floors in the different rooms (we had the three queen, room 115.) AND there were roaches on the beds! We contacted the hotel they tried to get us to stay at the Polynesian and when we went to inspect that room, there were roaches there too , and smelled like straight weed. When we told the front desk about roaches in both rooms and the tub not draining it did NOT phase them whatsoever. We ended up packing and leaving the night we got there (we were going to stay for two nights) and they did not refund us for the night we left only for the next night. I do not recommend this motel whatsoever. It’s is dirty, smells, has roaches everywhere (I am still in shock at how many there were) people were playing music outside loudly and yelling, and people partaking in drug use. DO NOT DO IT !!!!! I read the comments and decided to still check it out because I thought there’s no way that a place would still be open if it was as bad as the reviews said , well I was VERY wrong !!!

Worst hotel I’ve ever stayed at I wasn’t there for a couple hours after check in and left as soon we we found roaches everywhere and a toilet paper roll with blood stains from needles and they won’t give you a refund. There a joke. Managers don’t know what there doing. Save your money. This place sucks

The room smelled like cat pee. We had to get air fresheners and spray. The floors were dirty. We cleaned the floors with Clorox wipes and they were black. Ramen noodles between night stand and bed in one room. Pudding cup in the other. People smoking marijuana on the balconies. Trash on the balconies and hotel. Not sufficient parking at hotel. You had to park across the road. Other thank that the location was good. Walk right out to beach.

The linens were clean, the bathroom was old and fading but clean. The windowsills were disgusting. The hallway carpets were filthy, the room carpet was okay. The airconditioner sits above the refrigerator, you have to climb on a chair to adjust the temp. The smell of weed permeated the place.

The room was dirty, it smelt like weed and had roaches. There were shady people around. The comforter on one bed hadn’t been washed and looked like blood on it. They wouldn’t refund at least one night so I could go somewhere else. Pictures posted on hotel.com are not what it looks like at all.

On the beach. The front desk staff and housekeeping staff were nice. Had we been able to get a total refund and stayed somewhere else, we would have in a heartbeat. It's a roach motel. Front desk was made aware, they blew it off. The day we left, we stripped the pillows and the beds to help the housekeeping staff (we always do everywhere we stay) and there were BED BUGS on the pillows. Thank God when we first got there we put them in the drawers of the dresser because we had brought our own pillows. The mattresses had covers on them, and we didn't see any bed bugs on the actual beds and didn't get any bites. Totally disgusting. The mattresses are awful. There is little to no ventilation in the rooms. There is an AC unit in the back room, and it connects via a small vent in the front room but barely works. The carpet in the back room stayed wet the entire time and smelled mildewy. The pool is small, but the deep end is 8 feet. They provide tiny pots and pans so if you have more than one person to cook for, bring your own cooking items if you don't want to have to buy some while you're there. They do provide cooking utensils (still, bring your own) and plates, bowls, cups, coffee mugs, and 2 sets of silverware. We bought disposable everything. The stove is tiny and so is the oven, plan accordingly. They also provide dish soap since there is no dishwasher. No microwave. The toilets are so small that they could be used in a preschool. Excellent water pressure. Will never go back.

DO NOT STAY HERE!! I checked out after the first night's stay. The room was NASTY, dirt on the doors, chairs, floors, the room next to ours had major leaks & the ppl inside got rained on thru the night. Mold on the ceilings. TV in the room but no remote, fridge/freezer didnt work at all including the light. Will NEVER stay here again. It needs to be shut down and renovated.

The room was aged but overall the room served the purpose of what I needed and that was a place to sleep. The shower did not work correctly but the water was hot and the pressure was amazing. The AC worked great and helped hide the noise from Bike Week and rambunctious neighbors. These are my complaints: • I was hit with a surprise reserve fee of $36 upon arrival. • In addition, I was hit by a surprise $100 deposit that could only be paid in cash. This would create a dilemma for those who did not have any cash. I looked at their website and it did not specify that the deposit must be paid with cash. • I had to book this room at the last minute due to a problem with a previous booking. I ended up booking a smoking room. My mistake. I expected the room to smell like cigarette smoke. However, the room smelled like marijuana which I was not expecting.

My family and I stood here 3 weeks because we had our family pet and needed to be close to a pool, the beach & have a kitchen. We had a Triple Bed, 2 1/2 room space. I was really worried before checking in because of all the mixed reviews. But overall the entire family had a good time. We made lots of friends while here, some that we will be staying in contact with. That being said here are my pros and cons. PROS - First and foremost the staff was absolutely amazing to my family and I. They always made sure we were all okay throughout our entire stay. They are the main reason I would return. Outdoor pools located on side-front of property on premise are a nice size (1 baby pool & 1 adult pool from 4ft-9ft). Beach is on the back of the property. Easy access for both. Nice size refrigerator to keep all groceries. Nice size stove to cook. CONS - All room entry doors need to be changed and updated for more security of guests. Update doors to elctronic key cards instead of old fashion keys. Indoor vents need to be changed and updated, so the 1 AC can cool the entire space and not just 1 room. Ensure that each room has 2 balcony/walkway chairs, so people can sit outside their room and not have to drag the sofa chair out the room.

The "ocean front" view wasnt what was expected. The shower didnt work at all. There was no water. When i went to the frontdesk, the man called for maintenance. Mind you we were all sandy and gross waiting to shower so we could get dinner. No one came after an hour. I went down again and asked for another room which they luckily had one more left. The shower worked, but the entire coating in the tub was peeling everywhere. When using the bathroom sink it was clogged with hair from previous stays, which overflowed out and smelt like death. There was someones left over sock under a table and a childs pair of underwear behind the dresser that was also left behind. The clean towels also had hair in them

If you just need a place to stay and sleep this works. The fan in our room looked like it was going to come loose from the ceiling. Our fridge wasn’t very powerful we had to put ice Infront of the fans. The floors would turn the bottom of your feet black. We had the triple room it is smaller than it looks but we did have an oven with dishes and stuff which was nice. We did not see bed bugs. The beds were not comfy at all made my hips hurt. The blinds on the window were broken let a lot of light and noise in. We did not experience any problems during our stay and staff were very nice. We would consider returning in the future.

If you're traveling with kids or need a non-smoking room, avoid this place. All rooms allow smoking, regardless of what’s advertised. Management gives false assurances to get you through the door, but won’t issue refunds. Expedia won’t protect you either — they defer to the property’s policies. Our room wasn’t ready even by 5:30 PM, was dirty, smelled of smoke, and lacked the ocean view we paid for. We canceled upon arrival, as did other guests checking in at the same time. The front desk staff were polite but powerless — all decisions come from management and ownership. Extremely disappointing experience.

Ended up not being able to check in due to front desk not caring about her job and waited in line for two hours. They also did not refund my reservation even though I'm pregnant and unable to stand in line for 3 hours waiting for someone who was going so ungodly slow that I was starving after my road trip to get to Myrtle Beach. Deposits are $100 cash only, though this didn't bother me because it is stated in the description of the hotel and was not a surprise upon arrival. However, many other guests were upset about this and also were demanding a refund for their reservations.

I traveled with kids ages 5 to 15. At furst I only booked 1 night because of the hundred bad reviews and its what I could afford that night. But after checking in we def wanted to stay a second night there. The staff was wonderful. Yes the 1 cleaning lady spoke little English and didnt understand us asking for towels for the 2nd stay but the front desk got us 2 extra sets of towels so no issues. There were no bugs in our room at all not even a fly. The pool was clean. Yes parking is crazy because its shared with another hotel but across the street is a whole parking lot for the hitel so again no issues and no complaints. We loved it and will def stay there again for future visits. Thank you for making our 2 day trip the best weve had out there....

This is a horrible place to stay. There's a lot of sketchy people hanging around late at night. When I checked into my hotel, the ceiling was leaking water in the shower.

The staff was amazing. 0 issues customer service wise and very friendly. The location is terrible. There were people selling drugs out of the room next to us and in the parking lot. People visibly nodding out in the parking lot. The room was filthy. The room was infested with roaches and bed bugs. We were there for 6 hours and immediately got a refund and switched hotels. Tbh the photos do the hotel way more justice than reality and the building should probably be condemned. Please do not stay here. The worst hotel experience I’ve ever had in my life and there is a reason it is so cheap.
