very outdated, walls and plaster falling apart on inside and outside, comfortable beds, patio much too small, not enough room to put chair straight ahead, had to put sideways, price is reasonable, effeciency room with fridge and burner stove, but very old,grease coming ot from the side caked on, no fan in the washroom , very small and we had to open a window when we took a shower. nice pool, but they said it was heated, did not seem like it was, was pretty cold on most days. lights in the unit not properly positioned if someone wanted to watch t.v late while their partner was sleeping, again you get what you pay for, but i would not recommend, spend a bit more and the two hotels on either sideoffer the same thing and are much nicer. owner did not seem to be too friendly the week we went, also washer and dryer very old, needs a major update!!!!! last thing was told by the clerk at the front desk that fee for the entire stay had to be paid up front, did save some money coming here but I doubt very much that we will return, the maintenance man cleaning daily and very friendly.

We found office,building and grounds staff friendly and helpful. the room was in good shape and on the beach. Parking was good. With all this motel had to offer it was a great deal. Extended our stay from three days to seven, that is how much we enjoyed our stay. We will return to The Cove Motel each time we are in the Daytona Beach area.

The Cove Motel made our first trip to Daytona Beach a pleasant stay. Clean, an Ocean front room with balcony and a clean pool is all my family wants and needs at the beach and this is what we found at the Cove Motel.
Our ocean front room had a kitchen, 2 beds, TV, private balcony, in room safe, bathroom and dressing room. The office staff and manager/owner was friendly. Free parking but.. if your out late at night you may not find a parking space when you return. You will have to leave your car way across the street. I chose this older Motel with great rates over the high priced resorts and we were not disappointed. O yeah, each morning of our stay from our balcony we spotted Dolphin's swimming.

Although it was not the typical time to be at the beach, my family made a last minute stop in Daytona. We were welcomed with good American spirit and hospitality. The rooms are well done, updated nicely with a small kitchen, and all was very clean. This hotel is old, but well kept. The owners and staff are so nice, it just makes us want to go back for a visit! Although it is not a fancy resort, this is perfectly fine for a great and comfortable beach trip.
