36 reviews for Sleep Inn on the Beach, Orange Beach
Great Place for the money
By JuLiE, 09/18/09
We stayed at Sleep Inn in Orange beach in April 2009, with our 4 kids. The rooms were a little small, but we weren't there for the rooms. We were there for the beach. The staff was extremely friendly, and the view was great from our hotel room. My kids are keep asking when are we going back. We are hoping to go back really soon.It is a great price for what you get.
 
 
 
 
 
Nice place to stay!
By Michael S, 07/24/09
After reading lots of reviews, I didn't expect much. I was pleasntly surprised. Like some reviews said, there was a shower only (no tub), the balcony was small and the tv remote didn't work. Those are the only bad things I can say. The room was clean, the pillows were soft and the staff was wonderful. It's not a condo but a nice place to stay that is ON the beach and minutes away from dolphin tours, The Wharf and Adventure Island. It was well worth the price. I would stay there again without issue.
 
 
 
 
 
No where near as bad as the reviews
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 07/23/09
After reading the other reviews I had made my mind up not to stay here. We were staying on "points", however, so we were limited in choices; it was either here or the Comfort Suites a few miles away. My wife and kids (13 and 15) really wanted to be on the beach so I caved and resolved myself to what I thought would be a truly miserable stay. I have never even considered writing a review before but felt compelled to because this hotel does not deserve all the negative things said about it. We checked in a little early (around 2 pm) and had no problems. We went up to the room and, yes, the room was small but not as tiny as I had expected and we also found that we had a nice view of the beach. The desk is HUGE and completely out of place, but served as a good place to put the coolers and excess bags. The room was clean and resonably cool. The air conditioner worked fine. Breakfast was your standard cheap hotel continental breakfast and we didn't have any problems with it. I wouldn't describe the staff as overly motivated, but the couple of times I delt with them I got what I wanted. It is a clean, cheap hotel directly on the beach near resturants and a couple of grocery stores and I would not hesitate to stay there again. We were in Orange beach for four days and stayed the first night at the Hilton Garden Inn (also on points) and if I was coming out of my own pocket, for the price difference, I would pick the Sleep Inn. Don't let the bad reviews keep you from staying here, because we had a great time.

Not a good deal!
By military mom x2, 04/26/09
We stayed 1 night and BOY was I glad I had found the Best Western for the remainder of our stay!! Yes, the rooms DO have a balcony, BUT it is only deep enough to step onto, and no more than 2 people at a time! The furniture was WAY to massive for the small (and I mean SMALL) room. The "free" breakfast was a TOTAL joke. They ran out of dry cereal, and juice, AND coffee, so I stood and waited for them to make more coffee. Wireless internet couldn't be logged on to unless you were in the SMALL lobby. Would not suggest it! You will get more bang for your buck (and much more comfort at the Best Western in Gulf Shores!! Also, they needed some SERIOUS paint and fixing up, the drapes on the sliding patio doors had the backing cracked and worn so bad that with them pulled closed they looked seriously moth-eaten.
 
 
 
 
 
Never Again!!
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 07/18/08
I recently stayed in this motel, and it will be my last stay at this motel. When other reviews stated that the rooms were small, they were being generous. The rooms were tiny. Don't expect to put more than 4 people in the room. But, if your family is of the more fluffy variety, then don't expect to have more than 2 or 3. The beds were full-sized beds with room for maybe 2 children, but even 2 average or small adults would be cramped on those beds. And, they were the most uncomfortable beds on which I have ever slept in a motel. The grounds were nasty. I noticed several cigarette butts near the pool and several garbage cans overflowing...near the continental breakfast. It was actually decent. The staff was somewhat abrasive and definitely apathetic. And yes, the elevators were slow and hot. My advice is this: Spend a little more money and get better quality and service. You won't regret it.

Cheap, cheap, and el cheapo !
By R M, 07/17/08
Location is great, just don't get the rooms at the 1st floor, it is the worst hallway traffic you can imagine, and the swimming pool looks exactly into the lower floor balconies, literally feet away. There are no microwave ovens in the room, no fridge, no ironing board, no coffe maker and not enough towels and soap. The bed is most likey an overstock from some other bankrupt hotel. The mattress is rock stiff, the sheets have holes, although they looked clean. The toilet, that is the kicker ! it feels like you are stepping on a submarine or a boat facility - shape, form, access and "facilities" are bare to say the least. The toilet seat felt like is going to roll down the drain, and the shower is only binary mode (stone cold, or boiling hot). Breakfast was a joke. Bagels, so called butter, and some dubious juice. I would not touch the coffee with a 10 ft. pole. Personally I won't go back, and just cancelled a reservation for a week. I am glad I spent only one night ahead of my vacation so I haven't wasted a week of my time.

Horrible room with great view.
By Stacy, 07/12/08
We had a room with a lot of problems. My husband and I stayed there in June of 2006 and were very imjpressed. This trip was not so good. I actually took pictures of some of the problems. The bathroom door did not have any hardware on the doorknob so it would not close correctly. There was mildew on the walls in the bathroom.There were holes in the wall where an old towel rack had been. The shower door would not close from the inside and it dripped all the time and was very loud. The bed covers were old and raveled and dirty. There were stains on the carpet. There was a HUGE crack in the sink. The "free wireless internet" would not work. The view was really good though.

enjoyed my stay
By Mike70726, 06/18/08
Great place to stay for the price. Read some other negative reviews and almost made other arrangements. I'm glad I did'nt. Room was clean, staff was friendly. I think there was a fitness center advertised but there was'nt one at the hotel. I'm making plans to return in late summer and will stay here again.

wish i could have stayed longer :(
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 04/20/08
This was the first time my family and i had ever stayed at a Sleep Inn, and it met our expectations for the cost. The lobby was very nice and the breakfast was ok too. The rooms were nice but small we had trouble getting out to the balcony, and the shower was big but the airconditioner was very loud. The staff was great, they were friendly to everyone and very helpful and the location was perfect, right on the beach and close to everything. We would stay there again without a doubt.

Adequate motel room Outstanding View
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 04/12/08
We spent 3 nights in an Ocean View room. The room was average at best, but it was clean. There were 2 double beds with cheap motel linen, but plenty of pillows. A huge desk/chiffarobe/TV unit lined one wall. There was barely enough room to walk between the end of the bed and the furniture. The bathroom was equally small. The shower reminded me of one on a cruise ship. It was not as long as a bathtub, but bigger than a standard single shower. There was plenty of hot water and a wonderful shower head. We never saw the housekeeping staff, but we always had fresh linen after our morning outing. Breakfast was standard continental fare: bagels, toast, sweet rolls, yogurt, juice, powdered donuts, instant oatmeal, and a couple of dry cereals. The absolute best part of the Sleep Inn was that we were able to leave the sliding glass door open and see and hear the ocean at night. We really weren't in the room during the day. The beach is right outside. There is a decent patio and a small pool. We didn't get in because it was too cold. There is a nice boardwalk over the sea oats to the beach. There is a Winn Dixie and other shops across the street. There are restaurants within walking distance, too. If you just need a place to sleep while visiting the beach and you don't require a lot of frills this place works. Definitely pay the extra money for Ocean Front. (not just ocean view)
