Room was ok regarding cleanliness. Awful during our stay which I believe was because of the A/C filter needing to be changed or cleaned. Informed the front desk and they had the cleaning woman come to the room and she proceeded to argue about doing a good job cleaning the room. Told her the room was fine but the filter... More

New bathrooms and carpet since last time. Beachfront. Pool very clean. The Cafe has amazing breakfast!! Walking distance to Phillips. Only ding is .25 for ice. Boardwalk action not real close, but nice to get to a little quieter area after a busy night on the boardwalk.1

Just spent 3 nights as part of a convention, and is my third stay. The desk people are so nice and remember you year to year like the old days. The rooms are basic but clean and neat. One block to beach, bus, Pizza, liquor store, What else do you need?

This motel is great. The rates are good considering the location to the beach. 3 buildings to choose from, 2 pools; best coffee shop for breakfast and lunch. I have stayed here many times. Rooms are a little dated but very clean, some rooms have miroc/refer (some have both).Easy access to beach and boardwalk. Easy online booking as well.

Good place for the price. We love the location, close to beach, boardwalk, and convenient stores. I love the restaurant for breakfast. The maids were wonderful, always close by and very accomodating. If you are looking for 5 star then this isn't your place, but when in OC how often are you really spending time in your room. The rooms... More

We usually book this hotel every summer. The location is wonderful. You are within walking distance to restaurants, the beach, and other points of interest. However, it's far up the boardwalk, so you don't have deal with the amount of crowds that you would if you stayed closer to the inlet. The rooms are spacious and have the necessary appliances....

I've been coming to the Sahara for 20 years now. It's not the best and it's not the worst. It's a good deal for the price - clean, convenient and always accommodating. We stay in the West building because it is a little less expensive, we have breakfast most always at the Sahara Cafe and we have two pools. The... More

The ocean front location was wonderful! Really enjoyed watching the sites of the ocean and boardwalk. The only things unenjoyable were the tiny space in the bathroom and the air conditioning unit that was behind a wall partition. The bathroom area was way too cold and the wall blocked the air from circulating throughout the room. The temperature outside was... More
