Very noisy after midnight, teenage girls and boys laughing and talking very loudly on balconies and stairways on 3 different occasions from 1:15am and on,car alarms going off repeatedly for extended periods of time. And then the Train! Not very noticeable during the day but came through blowing the horns at least 3 times between 11:00pm and 6:00am No parking available.. Had to park in a satellite lot across the street. Will never return

We love staying at the Waves hotels on our yearly vacation! This year was great as always. One critique, the pool was a little bit cloudy. Everything else was excellent!

Well, it's hard for me to write a negative review because "dated" seems to be the theme in Old Orchard. The amount of dust and lost items under the bureau was minor. The bathroom shower door was broken on arrival, we couldn't shower on day one due to flooding the bathroom (and you want to shower at a place like OOB). My child refused to touch the toilet because it was "gross".

We have always stayed here-love the property. I did not expect to pay $450 a night for a room on the other side of the road on the railroad tracks...

Staff was super friendly & informative. It’s an older motel in a beach town, but it’s very well maintained. Room cleanliness, staff presence, room service quality are all excellent. Definitely will be our first choice for future trips to Old Orchard Beach.

I loved the three pool options and the location. Everything was in walking distance so we never had to get back in our car. However the place is very dated. It could use a refresh for sure.
