What guests think

At Viking Shores Motor Inn, guests highlight recently updated, generally clean, no-frills rooms and a convenient location near beaches and the bike trail, offering solid value for short stays on the Outer Cape, though experiences vary by room and season.

Many mention friendly, accommodating staff, but some report understaffing or slow responses at the front desk. Housekeeping and maintenance are inconsistent, with reports of mold, drainage issues, worn tubs, and occasional bugs alongside many spotless stays. Amenities are basic—an outdoor pool and bike-trail access are positives—while breakfast offerings and in-room coffee are limited or inconsistent. Expect a simple, budget-minded base for exploring the area.

In general, you get what you pay for. On a side note, the pool stairs were not in the pool, but sitting on the other side of the fence. The pool deck could use some deep cleaning.

Signage to the property could be better. In the busy season on rt. 6, it's difficult to see the sign before you've already passed it. The landscaping is run down. check-in was easy. The wood step up to the room was dangerous. Be careful if you are not sure footed. The room was very nice. Very clean. Bedding was also clean and well done. No frills in the room. Very large room. Could use a couple chairs with a small round table to have coffee at. Bathroom was small but clean also. Speaking to the clerk that checked us in, he told us they are going to focus on doing a lot more work around the outside with landscaping and the such. It's a work in progress. I wouldn't let the outside condition stop me from staying again. It was a reasonable price considering it is expensive to stay on the Cape.

My family and I came down to the Cape a day earlier than planned and were planning on camping but last minute decided to book a hotel. Check in was easy, the room was very nice and clean, and my kids really enjoyed the playground. It was also extremely affordable and we were very happy with our stay. We will definitely be back!

Very very dirty. Dust everywhere. Stains all over the duvet cover. Bathroom visibly dirty with dirt in the corners of the bathroom near the tub. Genuinely felt worried about hygiene being there. Bed was SO UNCOMFORTABLE. Woke up multiple times in the night sore from bed. No extra blankets, just one little sheet. Would not recommend

While we did stay the night, we didn’t have a great experience. One of the beds had hair in it, cobwebs behind the furniture and the fan was covered in dust. Admittedly, we didn’t call them late that night as we were too tired to deal with it. No one was at the desk when we checked out at 7:30am. I contact Hotels.com around lunch time to let them know. The motel apologized, but offered nothing more. I understand that at this point, they are doing renovations and may not be thinking of making sure current rooms are cleaned appropriately. It was also off season. A partial refund would have been acceptable.

Our bed was super comfy, but there was some issues in the bathroom. Black mold on the ceiling and the bathtub water wouldn't turn off, so it dripped constantly. They are working on renovating. Also picked this place because it had some breakfast items in the morning, but because it just changed owners they no longer so that and that was understandable but disappointing. Overall everything was good...

I realize the affordable price reflects the amount of amenities or not, but the area immediately outside of our room door was unacceptably covered with litter- used tooth flossing picks, q-tips, paper, screws etc. It was still not fully cleared after asking it to be cleaned up. Otherwise the room was clean.

Really enjoyed staying in an old-fashioned motor in, where you park in front of your door and have an old-fashioned real key. Room was very quiet and clean and had some attributes I really appreciated, including a great lamp OVER the bed for reading and an uncomplicated television. On the negative side, it's an old place due for renovations, which they promise the new ownership will be addressing at the end of the summer season.

As described by many others, this motel has renovated rooms. So for $65/night, off-season on Cape Cod (I visited in late September) it's the price that makes this motel so attractive. It's still a motel - let's be honest - but the floors, bathroom, sink, showers are all quite new. My only complaint, and it matters if you are sensitive to sleep, is in regards to the cheap sheets and bed cover. They are 100% poly, which makes it not so great if you're accustomed to cotton sheets. The location is awesome if you want to explore, in my opinion, the most interesting and less developed region of the Cape. Wellfleet barrier islands, Provincetown bike path (way more interesting than the flat railroad track path that runs through much of the Cape), Audubon nature preserve in Wellfleet, Marconi Beach, etc.

We had a mixed experience at this hotel. If you are looking for a lower-cost hotel in Eastham with nice roooms, nice pool, and recreation equipment for your toddlers, then this is the place for you. The downside is that the hotel provides no service. They are understaffed and often have nobody working at the front office, nor do they provide a way to contact them. I was sitting in the large, public room adjacent to the office (a former breakfast area), and saw several arriving customers having to turn on their car alarm in order to get someone to come to check them in. They provided no ice bucket in each room, although ice is available near the office (a several minute walk from the two buildings with rooms)

Our room comforter had blood on it. Toilet clogged after 1 person going to bathroom. When maintenance came in, they plunged toilet and offered to change comforter - they were not apologetic at all and did not show any concern. We asked for a refund for our next night's stay and the manager (Alan?) was ridiculous and called the young, female, cleaning staff into the office in front of us to reprimand them. It was completely inappropriate to do in front of guests. Will not stay again.

not the nicest place I have stayed, but not the worst. It was OK for a touristy location. Staff was not overly friendly (when I did see one) Door locks didn't work worth a damn. Still using a metal key type lock with dead bolt and door handle lock. Take a bit of a finesse to get ours open. I would most likely not stay there again. The only reason we did was because it was getting hard to find a place last minute (2 weeks from needed date) middle of summer season. No hot water in the sink but shower got hot. It was better than sleeping in the truck.

Very basic. Nothing more than a bed and a shower. They have started a complete refit so it's a building site at the moment and will no doubt be a complety different experience next season. We had no complaints about cleanliness, noise or broken fitting. Breakfast no longer available and coffee undrinkable. But still seemed a lot of money considering we had to go out for breakfast.
