Like most motels and hotels I will always say they need more lighting but that didnt effect my experience, I woulld just have to keep the blinds open while getting ready. One thing I loved about this property was it had a back door that you could sit on a little porch and enter the pool from there. We did not use the pool but loved being able to sit out back!

Great location. Simply and clean facilities. Quality complimentary breakfast. Updated bathroom facilities. Specious rooms for four people in our party. The motel is connected to the center of Orleans via sidewalks which is great. Pool is simple, clean with bright decor. My 11 year old enjoyed it. Overall we are very pleased with our two night stay and would stay again.

I stayed here for 6 nights and I don’t have any complaints! The continental breakfast has a good variety (of course the cool pancake maker was a hit), it was all clean, sanitary, the pool area gets a good amount of sun and is quiet, there are plenty of chairs outside to enjoy fresh air, the bed is super comfortable, and the room has plenty a space. I can’t recommend this motel enough. It’s the best affordable place to stay at in Cape Cod at a good location with stores, restaurants, beaches, and other activities close by! The staff was also friendly and respectful my whole stay. I’ll definitely stay here again if/when I go back to cape cod

The property is fine for an overnight stay. Not much of a resort though. The rooms are about halfway updated, new floors, new lights, new vanities. There is still old tubs and tile that show wear from the years and could use a complete update. The air conditioning blows right on the bed and it’s hot enough that you have to use it, but it keeps you up at night as well. Again, not a bad place just not at the level I would hope. Breakfast was fine, but simple, breads, yogurt, banana’s and cereal. The pool was nice, and the area behind is nestled between a bunch of wooded areas, which makes it nice.

The property was very clean and neat. Our room was spacious and updated with new bedding, bathroom utilities and a new television and refrigerator. We liked the option of swimming in the outdoor pool. The continental breakfast was sufficient and had a cool automatic pancake maker! I wish the front sitting space was a bit more enticing. It would have been nice to eat breakfast outside on a patio. Overall, the Motor Inn was very comfortable and enjoyable.

The floors in the room were disgusting, the room had a weird smell The bathroom was gross- shower and floor Put a floor towel down it was blackened and the slip mat in shower was gross. Had to wear water shoes. When you shut the bathroom door stuff would fall from vent. There was no microwave the refrigerator didn’t work well. No beds, at least the towels were clean and beds okay. Not worth the cost! The reviews were all great not sure if it was the same hotel or paid reviews. Would never stay there again could have stay at a resort 20 mins aways for the few days we were there with a cleaner rooms and more amenities. Same price but trusted the reviews in this hotel.

Stayed for 3 nights in early October. The man in the office was polite and helpful with dining places and other things you wanted to know about. You could tell the motel was renovated not that many years ago. Our room was nice and clean and the bed was comfortable. If you enjoy wine they had a corkscrew and real wine glasses on a tray with the ice bucket, I liked that. The continental breakfast had everything you need for a good start to your day, even fresh sourdough bread to toast. That was a first at a motel and definitely a treat. We would stay there again in the future.

Olde Tavern is an old facility. It’s clean and well maintained but the bathroom is smaller than in newer motels and there’s no microwave in the room. The rooms have two doors, the rear one opening on a deck facing the pool and some woodland, which is nice.

The only negatives were that there is SO much light coming in the window it was difficult to sleep. The curtains definitely don’t block it out. The TV remote didn’t work unless you stood in front of the TV. Other than that, it was clean and quiet, the gentleman at the front desk was really nice and the location is great.

Property was immaculate, beds were great. Parking was easy. Great location to activities on the Cape. The Hotel know they have a (room to room) noise problem as they supply ear plugs in the room. If you are a light sleeper consider other options. Staff was helpful.. but they placed people in the room right next to us while there were rooms empty and there was a possibility to have separation. You can hear the TV from one room to the other.

This quaint little spot off one of the main roads in Orleans was the perfect place for me to stay for two nights as I helped my dad move houses. From the nicely set up café and check-in area to the friendly service I received. I will certainly plan to visit again when I have a chance. Thanks so much for making it so easy and enjoyable for me!

We needed two rooms on short notice for a family funeral. Location was great -- we just got an electric car and found a charging station two doors down, so we could leave the car and walk back to the motel. Booking was easy, the innkeeper was polite, knowledgeable, and efficient. Room was fine -- clean, had all of the necessities. Only complaint is the pillows -- oddly square, very flat and uncomfortable. The continental breakfast was perfect and we met nice people while having a quick breakfast to start our day.
