"good overview"
I would say this hotel wasn't as bad some of the review I saw I was a little scare from their review til I got there it was comfy and I like how it was right there from the beach I wouldn't mind staying at this hotel again on my next vacationGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Don't be fooled by pictures!!"
This place is a total dump. Last update was probably 1992. Rooms were cramped, smelled bad and felt dirty. Stove looked unsafe. Refrigerator took up a lot of space in second room. Staff was not at all friendly. I felt unsafe leaving my car across the street in a dark lot. It honestly felt like walking on the set of a slashed movie.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"close to shoping, beach and many places to eat"
We were able to do early check-in which was nice. The staff was friendly and very supportive. The room was very clean, we had some blown light bulbs, but maintenance fixed that ASAP. The pool was a delight. My granddaughter really enjoyed that. The only thing missing was a hot tub. That would be nice. The beach was just steps away, wonderful!!! and […] the views from the balcony was absolutely the best. Watching the sun come up with a cup of coffee was, without a doubt, the most exciting sight and my family will definitely use the Oceanfront Viking again very soon.

"Horrible!!!!"
This place was absolutely nasty! There was garbage still in the bathroom when we entered and the place smelled horrible. The beds had hair all over them like the linens had not been changed out just made back over. We left and never will we ever book a stay there again. Also, the pictures on the web are about 15 years old. The place is a DUMP!Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Viking Motel Myrtle Beach"
We loved our stay at the viking motel, the staff was friendly and helpful! We were right there on the beach and for the price you could not beat this motel. I would recommend this hotel to anyone who is looking for an affordable family vacation. We are already looking into returning next summer! Thanks for the great memories!Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Great price, not so great experience."
Decided on the Viking due to the good nightly rate and the oceanfront location. The pictures online are nothing like what the rooms look like. The hotel is in a desperate need of a facelift. The wallpaper in the room was peeling off while the tile in the bathroom is coming up from the over spillage of water from the shower. During our stay the housekeeping […] staff was short handed so the maid service was not well. Not once was our floors swept and on one day we had to ask for clean towels and our response was "put your dirty ones outside your door and we will be by to get them". Once they did finally come to pick up the towels we had to wait another 20 mins for the clean towels. After one day of sightseeing, we came back to the hotel and found a firetruck parked in the front of the building, the next day 2 police officers were walking around the hotel with the manager and several nights we noticed police lights from the window. Needless to say, we did not feel very safe. Would not stay again. =( Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Oceanfront viking - decent cheap stay"
We stayed at the Viking for 7 nights. It is what I expected it to be - an inexpensive motel on the beach. The rooms were a little run down but mostly clean. It is definitely no frills but it had all the things it said it would. Our room had three beds and a kitchenette. Everything worked just fine in the kitchenette. One thing I'll say as a compliment […] is that the staff was very friendly and they responded very quickly to our requests for help. It is right on the beach so you can just walk right out onto the water. If you're not expecting 5 star quality but just a place to crash after spending a day at the beach or seeing attractions it is just fine. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

"it sucked"
I will never stay there again it was nasty and didn't look nothing like the pics on there web site I wouldn't let my dog stay there we felt we was staying at a crack motel that is how bad it is there and its bad when one of their head board falls on a little kid and he had to go to the hospital two times and all they want to give the parents is ten […] percent off of their stay that's sad and there aren't two tvs in the room and their housekeepers vacuum doesn't work the floors was black and felt gross you have to wear your shoes the whole time because if u don't your feet will be black I just don't understand how they get away with it being like that so I wouldn't waste my money that's a warning for whoever tries to stay there I know me and my family will never stay there again and they won't refund your money I think the place needs to be condemned Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Viking Motel"
The room worked for what we needed-- a place to sleep. The biggest inconvenience was that our bathtub was clogged, which wasn't helpful with sand. The entire building needs some upkeep. It doesn't seem like it has been updated much since it was built. Overall it was less than mediocre and would have been nice to even pay less for the appearance and […] inconvenience of the bathtub.

"You get what you pay for"
Well! I have a big family, even though, the room was big enough with 3 beds. The AC was in one room and does not cool the other. The Kids froze in the room while my wife and I were sweating ev en with the fan on high in thre other room. It is convenient (at the beach). It lacks maintenance and cleanliness and parking. Elevator area was nasty and the […] frontage view from the balcony was terrible. But as I said it is cheapest I found, and got what I paid for I guess. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

"Oceafront Vikings in Mytrle Beach."
This motel was a dump. The carpet was dirty, there was one television for two rooms. Only half the picture could be seen on that television. However; the staff were very nice and understanding. They were helpful in arranging a room at thier sister hotel. This was certainly a step-up.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
The hotel needs updates but it was ok for the price. Staff was friendly and willing to help when asked.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Not even if it was FREE !"
I don't even know where to start! I didn't expect the top of the line motel, but when we were charged a "resort fee" we had to laugh. Then the ride up to the room in the urine soaked elevator, only to arrive to a dirty room didn't make it better. We felt so uncomfortable that no one slept under the blankets, in fact I went to Walmart and bought blankets […] and we covered the bed up and used purchased blankets to cover up with. We were there for 6 nights and not one day of housekeeping. We bought our own toilet paper and went to the office everyday for clean towels. We had a family of 5 there and it did have a kitchen, however we were unable to cook because there were not enough dishes for everyone to eat off of .We did make good use of the refrigerator in the bedroom though. (yes the bedroom). If you plan on staying in this motel, bring blankets, sheets, towels, dishes, toilet paper, and enjoy the beach front place. It is right on the beach which was nice, however there is no wifi. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
the room was smaller then i thought it would be. The refrigerater was in the second bedroom and it took space up.The floor was dirty in some areas.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
To much confusion, people were too loud after 12, could not sleep for all the noise, pool was too dirty, didn't want my granddaughter to get in the kiddy pool.Genuine Hotels.com guest review

"HORRIBLE!"
The sheets were disgusting and had "globs" of hair all in them, as well as crumbs from food. Also, the flooring was nasty and peeling up all over. The stove in the kitchenette did not work. Mildew on the ceiling. Carpet was horribly disgusting. Kiddy pool was so bad that I would not even let my 16 month old daughter close to it. The lady at the front […] desk was extremely rude!

"The Viking Motel was a complete DUMP!"
The staff was short and rude. The room was dirty and poorly maintained. The other guests were loud and messy. Clearly this is a motel that holds very low standards. There was minimal parking and it was like pulling teeth to get extra towels. There were no extra pillows to be had. The room had not been dusted in a very long time, even after my request […] for it to be dusted. I recieved a smoking room after several calls to insure I recieved a non-smoking room. The view of the ocean was obstructed by a sewer access point. The room was equiped with only a small window air conditioner in the back bedroom, therefore, the door had to be left open and it stayed hot in the front (main) bedroom and freezing in the double bed bedroom. The bathroom was too small to function in, and the refridgerator was in the double bed bedroom. The shower curtain was covered in mold upon arrival, but upon complaint, was changed. The Viking is just poorly maintained and would be an acceptable lodging to people of very low standards for cleanliness and hospitality. I was actually asked to carry my entire groups dirty towels and wash cloths down to the office before I could recieve any new towels. I will NEVER stay at the Viking Motel again!!!

"Motel Viking - You get what you pay for!"
We rented a 2 bdrm but only 1 room had a tv which was small & from the 80's w/ only 5 channels. The stove had no indications of temperature. There was no pan to cook with in the oven. You had to hold the toaster lever down for it to work & it only toasted 1 side at a time. There was a coffee maker but no coffee or filter. The carpet was so disgusting […] I kept my shoes on at all times. It was very small & even though there was 2 bdrm's, there was no privacy. The door to the other bedroom had slots in it so you could see in & hear everything. The blanket smelled like pee. The only good things about this place is that it is cheap, right next to the ocean, & I was able to watch the kids play in the pool right from the balcony above. The kiddie pool however, was filthy so I was unable to let my baby play in it. Oh & the door to the room would not shut from the outside unless you turned the key so everytime the kids ran out the door I had to shut it behind them so my baby wouldnt book out the door. Very annoying. The shower would Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Oceanfront Viking"
For the price and location on the beach it was a good deal. I would have liked to have a microwave in the room not just a stove. They were also doing construction on it while we were there but that did not disturb our stay. I would stay there again.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Dumpy Hotel"
Would not recommend this hotel to friends. The hotel is in rough condition and in desparate need of an upgrade/maintenance. On the downside - the room we were given had hotels patched with duct tape, fraying, brown carpet that was not secured to floor and created a tripping hazard, and one of the bed frames was broken. On the upside - located right […] on the beach front, the kitchenette, although very outdated was convienent. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
