“The Perfect Beach Hotel”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 June 2009
1
person found this review helpful

We have been going to the Carolina every 4th. of July for a 3-4 night stay for the last 10 years. I have tried a few different hotels in Old Orchard for other occassions, but the Carloina is the best by far. We stay in the room closest to the beach which has its own private deck! There is no other room at Old Orchard that is that close to the beach. Right next door is a small restaurant/bar that has outdoor entertainment. All we have to do is mix our own drinks and sit on our own deck and enjoy the free entertainment.

When I called the lady was real nice and told me all she had left was a two bed over looking the beach and we would have our own deck... and it would just cost $200.00 a night.. we got there and after checking in we could not find a parking place.... ( they have a small bar and pizza place next door.. after looking in our room.. OMG it was so gross,,, floor looking like it hadn't been vaccumed for a long time.. I would not even let my small child on the floor.. had to keep the glass door open all night cuz of the smell... looked like it was a big party house with everything falling down.. I would't stay again if they PAID me....

“We may go back”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 August 2008

When my boyfriend and I decided to find a place to stay in Old Orchard last minute, the only place that would take two 20 year olds on last minute notice was the Carolina motel. The woman who took our reservation and meet us when we showed up wasn't the friendliest, but I think she was just one of those people with a dry personality. We were the only people staying in the hotel that night so it was quiet and we got a decent room. Unfortunately the pool was out of service. It looked like they were dong work on it, painting it or something. The walk to the beach was amazing, only a 30 second walk to the water. It was also fairly close to all the attractions, about a 5 minute walk.
However my boyfriend and I overslept and didn't check out by check out time so the housekeepers walked in as we were about to leave. They didn't charge us for checking out late, but you'd think that they would have noticed that we didn't check out yet considering we were the only people there and would have waited to send in the people to clean. We ended up rushing to get out and ended up leaving something behind because instead of giving us a few seconds to finish packing and leave they stood there and waited for us, which made us scurry around. That and the pool were really the only issues that I had with the place.

“Horror Show”

person found this review helpful

Short and sweet my husband broke his foot when a large heavy piece of wood fell off the wall. It landed on his toes. We alerted the clerk at the front desk. She told us the insurance co would be in touch with us. She refused to tell us their name. It was 4th of July weekend. It was completely ruined for us. The room didn't even have a/c. And honestly I don't think anyone has done maintenance on that building in 30 years. Total nightmare.

“YUCK!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 June 2008

people found this review helpful

The motel was a mess! The rooms were too small and so small that my uncle accidentally hit his head off the fan and broke it! Theroom was so damp that my cousin thought the beds were ''water beds''. There was no service whatsoever when we went, and in the end, all we thought of it as was the Ancient Aztec Mental Institute!
