“Casual motel with nice people and great indoor pool”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 September 2011

We stayed at the Southfleet Motor Inn for one week this summer and really enjoyed ourselves. The staff is very friendly, the indoor pool especially is a lot of fun, and the location is terrific. It's not a corporate sort of place and the hardworking owners really try to make you feel at home here. The back yard is usually deserted except for those people who want to use the toddler playground, and the tent area with christmas lights and picnic tables gives a nice option for people who want to bring dinner back from a local restarant. They serve continental breakfast practically til noon, and keep a copy of the daily paper to pass around to their guests. There are restaurants on either side of the motel and an ice cream and gift shop an easy walk away. It suited our family well and I would definitely come back, but here are some of the weaker parts of the experience.

What could be improved: 1) The linens you see on the motel advertisements are NOWHERE in evidence at the motel. You get the standard motel sheets and typical cheap scratchy blankets used in most US motels -- so don't expect that the $200/night + price gets you anything better. 2) The game room ping pong paddles (why only three of them?) were cheap and old with all the material stripped off them or flapping around. 3) We were told by the staff that there was only one ping pong ball left because they buy a cheap kind that cracks easily and you can't pop into town and buy one....so we would have to be careful with it. (Amazon doesn't deliver to the Cape?) . 4) The carpets and furnishings are typical cape cod motel style too, meaning, I guess, the type of carpet that's cheapest and easiest to keep free of mildew. Everything seemed clean though, so the style is only a problem if you expect something different. 5) I don't know if something could be done to make the outdoor pool more enticing somehow. The gate is awfully close to the pool and the number of deck chairs is ample, but somehow...it just isn't a lovely place to sit.

“Nice hotel but avoid Labor Day weekend!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 September 2011

We've enjoyed two stays at this hotel, which is wonderfully situated on Route 6 on Cape Cod, across from the Marconi Beach entrance road. The hotel is a little dated in spots but wonderfully clean, with a friendly office staff and continental breakfast. A microwave in the lobby is handy for reheating leftovers, which you can keep in a small fridge in your room. Indoor and outdoor pools are a big hit with kids. The hot tub is next to the indoor pool. Water temperature and cleanliness of all are great.

The hotel is walking distance to a few decent nearby restaurants and a nice beach store that also sells ice cream and candy.

The rooms are generally quiet. However, we have been there two Labor Day weekends, and both times the hotel was converged upon by more than a dozen drunken 20-somethings, toting cases of beer under their arms and making noise. They take up most of the parking lot, run back and forth across the hotel balcony, and leave their doors open (unless they are slamming them at 1 am, after they return from the bars). I highly recommend this hotel at any other time but AVOID IT AT ALL COSTS ON LABOR DAY WEEKEND!!!

Room Tip: Upstairs rooms are quieter than downstairs.

“Great Location & A Great Stay”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 August 2011

My girlfirends and I stayed here for a Girls Weekend getaway and we had a fabulous time.
The two pools and hot tub were great and having the Catch of the Day next door really came in handy.
The rooms also had a decent size refrigerator, which worked out great for drinks.

All around a great little place.

“Very Happy Vacation!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 31 July 2011
1
person found this review helpful

After thoroughly reviewing all of the reviews on Trip Advisor I made a last minute change and decided on the Southfleet Motor Inn. Very happy I did! This was a special getaway for us and we really just wanted a place that was centrally located and clean. When we arrived at the motel we were warmly greeted and given a short explanation about the pools (indoor and outdoor - both VERY clean) and the layout of the motel. Also given a map of the area and some directions. The room was very spacious with modern furnishings and updated bathrooms.Fridge and coffee pot was a bonus. Hair dryer in bathroom. It was VERYclean and housekeeping was on top of everything.
Coffee (wow! it was good!) available all day. Nice continental breakfast with bagels, english muffins, fresh watermelon is available in the morning. Just enough - nice touch.
There is a play ground in the back for families, but I never heard a peep from it. We stayed three nights and it was very quiet all the time and I know the motel was full.
Perfectly located near beaches, restaurants, downtown Wellfleet and 20 mins to P'town.
We would definitely stay there again. Nice place, great value, pleasant but discreet hospitality.
