Marvin Gardens Motel Old Orchard Beach

Superb

Liked: The cabin was cute
Disliked: The hot tub dirty.

We had a great time.

Liked: The location was good. About a 10-15 minute walk to the pier, didn’t have breakfast there. Loved the pool and private hot tub. The cleaning lady was very nice.
Disliked: Well we ended up showing up earlier than expected. When I booked the site said check in 2, but when we got there she said 4. So that was confusing. She wasn’t finished cleaning. But she let us keep the car there and we walked to the pier for lunch. The only 2 things I noticed was the ceiling fan had a lot of dust on it. And someone before me left an empty water bottle and socks under the bed. Being a cleaning lady for 30 years I always look at this kind of stuff. I’m sure she had felt rushed because we were earlier than she was inspecting. I also think if you are renting a room that before you leave always look under the bed and things to make sure you don’t leave anything behind. Just my opinion. Besides that it was a pleasant stay. The kids also had a great time. Love that the pool is opened til 11 for night swimming. Room was stocked with coffee cups, wine glasses, utensils. I have another night booked in a couple weeks.

Superb

Liked: Peaceful and relaxing
Disliked: Hot tub could be a little cleaner

I wouldn’t go there again

Disliked: Room wasn’t clean .. no trash can in the bathroom .. shower wasn’t clean .. sheets seemed clean but not .

Very good

Liked: The cottage was was meticulously maintained, everything we needed was at our fingertips. The private, well shaded patio was a very nice addition. The on site staff were SUPER friendly and helpful. We were within walking distance of the beach/pier which was great because the parking proved to be pretty tough down there at peak times. It was a fantastic stay and I would highly recommend it!

Lovely and will definitely be...

Liked: Loved how cute and cozy it was the private yard was amazing ! The staff is so kind and accommodating the pool is clean and refreshing !

Very poor

Liked: No bkfst n coffee didn’t work
Disliked: Cops surrounding property for a guest so I felt very unsafe n scared

Cute beach cottage

Liked: I like the beach cottage and the porch. I liked the beach themed art and blue and white colors. The location is about 1/2 mile from the train stop, so I was able to come here from Boston (after a cancelation) and enjoy a peaceful beach town after the upheaval of my travel plans being crushed. I liked having direct tv to watch football.
Disliked: I stayed during the off season so I missed being able to use the pool. I wish there were more hooks to hang things as the ones that were provided only held my purse, jacket, umbrella. I would have liked a separate set of hooks to hold my pjs, robe, clean clothes to wear the next day. There is no closet and I just dont like drawers as much. My room didnt have a microwave, only more expensive rooms do. Microwaves arent that expensive. There was a mini fridge, I just had to buy and eat cold food or eat out.

We love the cottage we’ve...

Liked: Location, hot tub.
Disliked: Satellite tv.
