What guests think

Reviews of Sunrise Motel highlight its unbeatable oceanfront location across from Long Sands, with sunrise views and balconies, plus consistently friendly, accommodating staff and simple rooms, many with kitchenettes, making it a comfortable, good-value seaside stay.

The property is older and has stairs only; some find furnishings dated and noise from neighbors noticeable. A recurring gripe is unreliable Wi-Fi and limited cell service, with occasional TV issues. Cleanliness is frequently praised, though a handful of reviews report lapses, including kitchenware not fully cleaned and isolated pest complaints. Expect a simple, beach-focused stay with standout views and warm service.

The property needs a bit of updating. We requested a furst floor room but were given a second floor room. No elevator. Thevroom was clean but outdated. The tv and refrigerator were plugged into a power strip. When entering the lobby area, there wasn't a ramp. I didnt realize it and lost my balance. There is no one in tbe lobby area during nighttime hours. A note is posted with a telephone numberhe hotel's location is perfect, directly across from the beachm

Small motel, staff was friendly and pleasant. A couple of restaurants nearby. Ocean was right off the street. Amazing views from most of the rooms. I also liked that they had an area on the lawn you can relax on chairs and watch the ocean or have a picnic. I would definitely consider this place again in the future.

The location was perfect, we just happened to visit while we were getting major storms - so we didn't get the enjoy the beach. But parking was easy, the room was comfortable. The bed was rather uncomfortable so I could not imagine staying there for more than one night - but otherwise I loved it!

The location is great to see the and access the ocean. There is a observation deck for viewing, as well a "porch" in front of the room. Although the building is old, it's a great place to stay for all the shore offers. The rooms are clean and nicely furnished, staff was exhalent. There are man y good restaurants within walking distance. It's a grerat place to stay to enjoy the "shore" life.

BEDBUGS!! My bed was infested with bedbugs! I have at least 40 huge bites all over. When I told them about it they didn't seem to care as the manager never got back in touch with me. If you've never been bit by bedbugs they are INTENSELY ITCHY! And I have like 40! Please remember this if you go here. And know that the management doesn't care about this either.

Check in was a breeze. The room location was great however the cleanliness of the room left a lot to be desired. The dishes were dirty and had to be washed before use. The coffee pot had not been cleaned. There were crumbs in the silverware drawer and the microwave had crumbs on the tray and grease on the inside of the door. The bathroom door would not stay closed. When I spoke to the front desk they said that they rely on the previous customers to clean their dishes. This is fine but the staff should check to see that it is done. It was too bad because the location is perfect and if the kitchen had been cleaned we would have given this motel an excellent rating.

I loved being able to pop out of bed and walk across the street to catch the sunrise. The room was clean and the staff were really nice. Was great to have a fridge. What wasn’t great was that we could hear people above us walking around starting at 5am. I expected there to be hair conditioner and there wasn’t. No closet in the room but you could hang maybe 5 things on a bar next to one of the beds. It met our needs for a short stay at the discounted rate

Great ocean view room, well supplied room, fast check in. The bed was comfortable too. The only thing that needed more attention was the bathroom mirror and sink faucet had spots on them, not wiped clean, an oversight by housekeeping. But i would stay again good nightly rates will make a return customer.

Comfortable, very clean, tiny kitchenette fridge was great, some thoughtful details. Older property so some wear. Only major negative is limited motel WiFi access (“a bandwidth issue”) added to limited cell service in the community made normal traveling internet use very inconvenient. Linens and towels were clean and fresh smelling. Loved our 3rd (top) floor room with balcony looking out toward ocean across the street.

I was very impressed with the Sunrise Motel. The rooms were very clean. The staff was friendly. We did have some wifi issues the first night there but the front desk took care of that for us the next morning. The staff went out of their way for my family. We asked where there was a laundry mat close by as we had two kids and didnt want to go home with a ton of laundry. The staff offered to do the load of laundry for us. They washed, dried, and even folded it. I would recommend this place anytime!!!

The staff was very friendly. Our room was neat and had a kitchenette that we weren't expecting. We were able to park directly in front of our room. The motel is right across from Long Sands which was convenient. the only downside to the location was that it's located at the very beginning of long sands, so for a few hours before and after high tide, there is no beach and you have to go about a half mile up toward the bathhouse to find sand. I would recommend this motel!

Location, location, location! Sunrise Motel is directly across the street from the ocean on Long Sands in York, ME. Although not directly on the beach, it is only a few minutes walk to a small beach area at low tide. The motel itself is a bit older but extremely clean and comfortable and the staff I met were all very friendly and helpful. I would definitely recommend the second or third floors for the best views of the ocean as the first floor overlooks the parking area. (Stairs only; no elevator.) Really enjoyed my stay and would definitely return.

The little kitchenette served our purposes well, and our first floor room was exceptional In size, comfort, and cleanliness. We all had incredible ocean views, and saw an amazing sunrise, even the two of us who had first floor rooms. The value was amazing and we will be back.

While sitting at the table in front of large window, I had a view of the ocean and so much light from the sun. I was not expecting a tub with jets, but it was perfect for being on my feet all day & night in heels. The office people were so friendly and personable. It made it comfortable to come and go when needed. I highly recommend this place. I will be back with my family.
