“run down but cheap”

Sunset Inn of America on the Bay

Apr 30, 2007

Total cost for Friday and Saturday night was $150. Thats very good for Atlantic City. Motel is also close to the boardwalk and casinos. The room itself was totally run down. Wallpaper was old and peeling from the walls. Chairs were dirty and worn. Dirt and dust everywhere. Luke warm water in the shower, no shampoo. Mold on the showerhead. Sheets that felt dirty on the skin. cigarette burns on the bed covers. A very depressing room to say the least. No ice machine either. They offered ice from an ice chest that was tainted yellow. GROSS!! I came to AC to play poker, not stay in my room much. So I suppose it served its need, but this place isn`t for most people.

“Absolutely horrible.”

Sunset Inn of America on the Bay

Jun 18, 2006
10/10 found this review helpful

Absolutely horrible. $160 night. Holes in walls, plumbing not working (which I found out at 5:30 AM and the office was reluctant letting me use theirs), filthy bedding, no phone, air condtioner not working - was warm (husband slept in the car because it was too hot)... absolutely horrible. Had no choice but to stay because there was nothing else available. Read another review from 2003 that said it was under construction, well 3 years later and nothing has been done except maybe become even more dirtier.

“The Worst Place You Should Never See”

Sunset Inn of America on the Bay

Scotch Plains, NJ

12/12 found this review helpful

For $125, we got holes in the walls, mirror falling off the wall, cigarette burns in the bedspread, awful smell, no controls on air conditioner, no telephones, among other issues. We took two rooms and the other was the same except the toilet stopped flushing early in the night. There were no other hotels in the area because of conventions so we had to stay. Do yourself a favor and sleep in a cardboard box instead of this place.

“WORST place I have EVER stayed at”

Sunset Inn of America on the Bay

1 of 5 stars
Cannon Beach, OR
Mar 27, 2006
10/10 found this review helpful

I have been in the hospitality business for 12 years and traveled extensively before that, and this is by far the worst place I have ever stayed. The town was booked solid so we were stuck for two nights. We had asked for a non-smoking room, but our room reeked of smoke, and had cigarette burns on all of the furniture and the carpet. The lamp shades were stained yellow from all the smoke. There were long black hairs on our pillows, bedspread, and throughout the bathroom. My wife went to the front desk and asked for cleaning supplies so she could clean our bathroom. These were given to her without comment (maybe it was a frequent request?). I was told that if there were no ashtrays in the room, it is non-smoking. The drawer in the credenza had a front and sides but no back or bottom. I would not recommend this place to my worst enemy at any price. They knew the town was full and charged us $100 per night for this dump. Stay away!

“Cheap...nice owners...safe neighborhood”

Sunset Inn of America on the Bay

Chambersburg

6/6 found this review helpful

The ONLY place in town that did not "gouge" us because we were in town for a convention!
Not a bad place for the money...a little dusty and cobwebs in the closets. Shower (no tub-thank goodness) was a physco shower (scarey/no light!)
Bathroom window did not lock but it DID overlook the "bay"...swamp. In fact ALL the rooms had a veiw of the "bay" (stange little swamp)
A little frustrated with all the noise from the partiers coming back after midnight....was going to call the front desk, but NO one (that we could find) stays there at night!!
All in all, not a bad place for the $$
