Bel Air Motel stay

Motel is staffed by middle eastern family that barely spoke or understood English. Pool had trash floating on the surface and my grandson found something on the bottom area that he said resembled a "raw meatball". Tried to use the device with the long handle and screen on it, but it was ripped up and useless. Parking is a joke, spaces are measured barely as wide as a medium sized vehicle, so you end up door handle to door handle. No daily housekeeping service....if you want clean towels or clean bed clothes, you have to ask for them at the office. Batroom was designed for small slightly built individuals.....as we are NOT.

Major overhaul needed

While the people who work there were nice, this motel needs a massive renovation. The carpet was damp and wet, so we had to walk around with our shoes on. The sink was falling off the wall, and you could not even lean on it because you were afraid that it would detach and fall on your feet. There were some stains on the sheets and everything about this motel was old. The outdoor pool area seemed okay, but we didn’t spend much time there. Overall, this motel needs a major renovation, the rooms are dismal and not worth the price you pay in high season.

This is a dated property that has had some upgrades but is basically very run down and not all that clean. It is OK for a stay at a vintage motel, if that is what you are after. The general condition of the facility is rather lacking.

Staff doesnt come to clean your room everyday i had to infact as the office foe them to clean the room when we stayed 6 nights. When asked for someone to clean the room they give an excuse that made so sense. Its a good stay thats afordable and close to a lot but they need to assure rooms are being cleaned which they dont while youre staying here.

READ THIS BEFORE BOOKING THIS HOTEL This was one of the worst lodging experiences I've ever had. I have traveled all over the world and stayed in some good hotels and some bad hotels. This stay will be memorable because of how terrible it was. The area around this location is sleazy and unsafe, so much so that my wife had to stay in the room because of the clientele who were lurking around the property. The room smelled like pure bleach and was a shambles. The towel bar was ripped from the wall, the toilet paper was sitting in a roll on top of the toilet since there was no holder available. The refrigerator in the room did not stay cold and there was a sign next to it saying that items placed in there would require 6 hours to refrigerate. The AC was extremely noisy as were the other persons staying in the rooms adjacent to us. The bottoms of my feet were black from walking around the carpet in the room. After getting only a couple of hours of not-so-deep sleep, the bleach and/or ammonia smell was burning our noses, and probably our lungs. We would have gotten more rest if we just slept in the car. DO NOT believe the favorable reviews of the Bel Air you may see online. The pictures they post are staged and not indicative of what you will really receive.

Outdated property. Great location. The room was fairly clean - beds were fine and bathroom was clean. The carpet was old and stained and the walls needed to be repainted. Bathroom floor and sink need to be replaced. Grout was stained and/or missing on the bathroom floor. Faucet was rusty. The staff seemed very nice. It wasn't horrible but would not stay again.

Place needs upgrades accross the baord. However its location makes it a great optuon being one block from the beach. Towels are thin, beds lumpy, floor wet , light not working. The staff work hard but without real investment not much to maintain.

The property has a great location and on- site parking. The pool was nice and clean. Overall, the property is showing it's age and has not been renovated. The room was mostly clean, but had very old uncomfortable furniture and cheap memory foam mattresses. The bathroom was clean and the shower had good water pressure. The kitchenette is in desperate need of renovation. Air conditioning worked well. None of the lamps in our bedroom worked. In summary, this place is acceptable to stay at if you are on a small budget and plan to be mostly out of the motel room anyway.

The sink was coming off the wall, the soaps/cups/ coffee were old and smelled funny and they run your card without asking and don’t have you sign anything. Their business practices are strange, although they are nice, they aren’t really for travelers. Its a weird vibe at this motel. I paid nearly 350 a night, the soap should at least not be lowest quality and the sink shouldn’t be coming off the wall. I had a feeling it was one of those places that set you up for damages so they can charge you more.

I had called a few days earlier for an early check in. Receptionist told me she would note the reservation but can't garuntee. We did get early check in & she remembered my request - yay! But there was a $20 charge that I wasn't told about. No worries, went up to the effieciency with my sis & 2 kids - AC unit in the living room not working, during a heat wave (96 degrees @ 6pm). I told the desk, she said maintenance would come in 2 hours, and asked if we had a fan- Yes, a stand up fan blowing hot air. After the beach, no one had come yet. Went to dinner, returned....STILL no one had come. Went to the desk, asked for compensation but since it was a 3rd party reservation, they can't do that. I was begrudgingly given a credit for the early check in since I had paid at the desk & late check out. The next day, the receptionist said that a new AC had been ordered and was due in 2 days....but if maintenance never came, HOW DID THEY KNOW IT WAS BEYOND REPAIR??? My conclusion is that they KNOWINGLY put 4 people (who would need both the bedroom and the living room for sleeping) in a room with a broken AC unit. I should have been offered a room change but I guess that was out of the question. Also, pool area had trash laying around, stepped on a maintenance cover and nearly fell in bc the cover came off. Glass window in room had HUGE crack that was taped. NEVER will stay here again.
