    On the Tuesday of Spring Break my kid announced that we were taking the BFF on an overnight beach trip. I had no idea. First I called my outlaws ( her paternal grandparents) with whom we have a somewhat standing invitation to come see them in Lincoln City. Nope. The family inn was full. Damn. I mean, it is Spring Break. My choices were going to be limited. I scrambled online and came up with one oceanfront room here for one night. It was not cheap but much less than I thought it would be, and happily it had a kitchenette and a pool. Did I mention oceanfront, kitchenette, and pool? The room was not spectacular. It was a bit run down, with the exception of the bathroom which had new flooring and tiling in the tub. The walls were thin. I heard the neighbors doing adult things ( fortunately the kids did not). Our room had a bed in one room with the bath,and a bed in the other with the kitchen and the nice view. That was a nice surprise and gave me some unexpected privacy away from the anime watchers around the time I passed out from exhaustion. But it had fabulous views, the teens loved the pool, we wound up cooking dinner so the kitchen was useful, and it's very close to all the good stuff including the bead store and the main drag. We all agreed we would stay here again. I would just advise some earplugs. P.S. Our room was pet friendly. A dog could come for an extra $5/night as I recall.

    First off I commend the positivity and professionalism of the woman running the check-in. She was friendly, helpful and overall the reason for two stars instead of one. The view totally amazing (that in itself a total five)! Rockaway is a quaint beautiful coastal beach town. This motel is stuck in the 70's very outdated and overall just not aesthetically desirable. Bed lumpy, decor from 80's and the walls are so paper thin I could hear conversations from every room on every side, and above me. Toilet seat slams are the worse so loud from the other rooms and the perpetual banging from the unit above me at 11:38pm sounds like a new edition is being built whilst trying to sleep. When I arrived I opened the door and was immediately hit with the distinct, disgusting, dirty ashtray scent, wafting all over the room, I opened the patio door and window to try to air the room out but; lo and behold a "Karen" was sitting right next to my patio just puffing in all her glory her stank a@@ cigarette. The property has "NO SMOKING" signs posted on every room and window but it sure didn't stop the 70 yr old benson and hedges from creating a smoke cloud bigger than Hiroshima! I respectfully asked her to smoke away from door so I could keep it open along with the window to enjoy the view/sound as most do that come to the beach. She of course started bitch fest 2022 to her husband that she'd been coming down here for years smoking and no one has ever said anything to her blah, blah, blah!!!! After listening to decrepit Karen go on about how slighted she was; I immediately canceled my second night booking, proceeded to ask the desk clerk if smoking was allowed becz I want no part of Ms. puff the unmagic dragons weekend smoke fest. If noise doesn't bother you, if entitled boomer Karen's don't bother you with their self serving barfness, if old outdated motels don't bother you, then book a room here. Side note; wanted to leave window open all night to listen to the amazing crashing waves but again puff the unmagic Karen dragon may need to run outside to feed her addiction of barfness and don't want the lingering ashtray wafting inside in the midst of my slumber. I myself will surely find "quieter", cleaner, happier, respectful accommodations elsewhere.

    Check in was easy. We did have to wait like 15 min for our room to be ready as housekeeping staff was behind and others were getting off work. View was nice. Close to everything and just a min walk to the beach. One bed had a mattress cover and sheet and the other one only had a flat sheet on it. Bring blankets or just turn up the heat like we did because there isn't tick blankets on the beds. Beds are very springy. Pool is closed due to covid.

    Looking for a view of the beach!?? This place has got it!!! From the minute we walked through the room we were happy! We came to watch the storm and that what we got!! This place is a bit outdated. So I want to make it clear that the view of the beach and the location of this hotel got them 4 stars.

    We booked two rooms, ours upstairs, and daughter with small dog downstairs (15 extra charge). The room worked great since she had a door out onto the beach. Clean, oceanfront private view windows overlooking an uncrowded beach. Book ahead to get rooms you want. Microwave, big bathroom, the only thing better would be comfy chairs to sit in and enjoy the view on a rainy day, but we got more beach walks in this way.

    We've stayed there a few times now. The first two times were great. The service was good. The rooms were clean. The maid staff was very friendly. No complaints. However our last visit leads me to believe (as others have stated) that this hotel had gone downhill. First off we reserved a ground level room. I even called to confirm it and was told yes it was a ground level room. We originally wanted just a regular two queens basic room, but I was told there were none on the ground floor available, so we paid and extra $20 for the kitchenette unit....just so we could have a ground floor room. We arrive at the hotel only to find out there are NO ground level rooms available and we are in fact in an upstairs unit. The lady who checked us in asked if we still wanted to stay there. Knowing there were no other available room in town, we took the room but cut our stay short from two nights to one. She did refund my 2nd night although I had to call the next day when I got home because she didn't refund the pet fee. Strike one. We check into the room and it appeared to be clean but very dated. It's not fancy nor do I expect it to be at the beach. BUT the room needs some TLC. Our bedspread had a hole in it. The walls need to be wiped down. What I thought was tiny holes in the wall was actually dirt. The floor boards were dirty and there was a good pile up of sand all along the side of the floor where it meets the wall. Now I get at the beach you can't ever get rid of all the sand in a room, but a vacuum cleaner with a hose attachment run along the floor where it meet the wall would go a long way to help this issue. The furniture is old and needs to be replaced. Our tall dresser which doubled as our TV stand, was worn and chipped in places. The nightstand and kitchen table were chipped as well. Our queen beds were uncomfortable. The bathroom was very clean. Strike Two. The indoor pool is great. It's warmer than most hotel pools. Very comfortable for longs swims with the kids. It's a salt water pool which is better for the environment and people since it uses less chlorine to keep it clean. On the first day we swam, it was a little overly salty. I told the front desk about it and they must have fixed it. The next day it wasn't as salty. The hot tub is HOT! Very hot. Not sure what the temp was but it was way hotter than other hotels we've stayed out. I didn't see it get used much when we were there...most likely due to temperature. They also have a nice sized sauna. The view from our room was breath taking. Love being right on the beach, watching the sunset. They allow pets, up to two dogs per room. All that is required is that they be on a leash on the property and never be left alone unattended on the property. $10 per dog, per night. The walls are pretty thin so we did hear the people next to us and even below us which I found strange. We heard showers running, doors slamming. Silver Sands is right in town, within close walking distance to shops and restaurants. For the price they charge for room, and in the summer time are pretty full, I would expect better rooms and friendlier service. They are more expensive than many other hotels in Rockaway Beach. You are paying for being right on the beach and having an awesome view.

    My husband and I just stayed here for three nights. We really enjoyed the view from the room as the back door opens up right onto their little yard that butts right up to the beach. It is a quiet place even though there was no vacancy. Our dog was welcome there with a modest fee. The room was clean and had everything we needed except for an iron which was no big deal. Overall I will definitely stay here again.

    Unobstructed view up and down the beach as far as you can see

    Great budget motel; no frills but all the basics amenities one would expect in a hotel. Coffee/tea/creamer for the 12-cup coffee maker, hairdryer, and toiletries. That's right, a BIG pot of coffee or hot water, perfect for cooking ramen or instant oatmeal on your budget trip to the beach. Right on the beach for beautiful, unobstructed views and screens in the windows so you can listen to the ocean without insects. Close to town that you don't need to leave your alotted parking spot. Water pressure in the shower was poor but the shower head was a rain type, so if you like the gentle rain type shower, it's perfect. Good sized mini-fridge in the double queen room we had with plenty of space for any leftovers or sandwich fixings. It was inside a cabinet and the doors were opposing, but still functional. Beds were spring type and comfortable enough, though the pillows were flat and needed doubling for my preference. If you come expecting a budget motel with just the basics, it's perfectly functional to keep you dry, warm and delighted by the view.

I asked what time checkout was and they said 11am but failed to tell me that there was a late fee starting at 11:15 AM and they charged per 15 minutes after 11:15. They left a lock box for us and although the weather was very rainy and stormy, and there is no elevator to get up to the rooms, we got in with no issues. But, when we opened our balcony door we saw a shipwrecked boat on the beach in front of our room and the people staying above us were up every hour on the hour and then at 5 am started dragging suitcases across the floor- and you can hear everything through the ceiling. And construction crews got there at 6:30 am to remove the mast from the ship. We got maybe two hours of sleep. They office told me the people above us had a family emergency but regardless, a late fee was charged as we were still moving our suitcases from the room on the second floor, down the stairs at 11:30 until 11:40 when I went to the office after someone came to tell my husband at the car we were going to be charged a fee. I asked if they could make an exception to the rule due to the circumstances but they refused and were immediately on the defense the minute I walked in the office door. I tried to get Expedia to refund us and the hotel refused. I travel for work often and I've never been charged a late checkout fee, especially since we didn't get any sleep, let alone one per 15 minutes and the majority of that was my husband trying to get all of our stuff downstairs because there's no elevator. Do not recommend. Do not stay here.
