Overall it was a nice stay. I loved the location and the room was nice. However, the floors were sticky, the sheets had a stain and sand, and the shower drain was clogged. The hotel itself seemed nice. I would recommend staying here as long as you bring your own pillows and cleaning supplies if you’re nervous about germs.

The location is lovely, everything was super clean, and even the partial ocean view room and a private balcony with a gorgeous view! The only complaint was the beds and pillows could use an update,

Location was great and room was very clean and spacious - just not noise proof. Perhaps because our room was an interconnecting one, but we could hear our neighbours clear as a bell.

The Henlopen Hotel was clean! The staff was extremely nice! A No frills hotel. The coffee machine in the lobby was broken while we were there for 4 days in middle of May. The best part ….. you were located right on the boardwalk and beach! It was great for 3 year old granddaughter! Parking was tight if you had a large car. I would return!

Beach Access

We loved being in the beach and boardwalk, but there was noise from other guests (kids running and screaming and parents yelling at them and a drunk guest banging on room door) that was not addressed by hotel staff.

Good location, but room needs some updating

Bed hard. Toilet clogged when checked in, and then continued to make a noise every time it was flushed after having maintenance unclog it from previous people in the room. Noisy room right off the elevator.

We had a nice time at this hotel. Right on the boardwalk and beach with free parking. At the end of the boardwalk so quiet and less busy. If you don't mind walking 10-15 mins to shops and restaurants, this is a great place to stay. I was hesitate with the bad reviews, but I had a great experience and am so glad I stayed. Will be back for sure! Great sunrises too!

Quite possibly the best hotel room in Rehoboth

We stayed in the Queen/Queen Oceanfront room which was amazing. Clean, 2 showers(?!), a minifridge, microwave and coffee maker. Best of all it is direct OF with an amazing view. Staff here is pleasant and helpful, but note that the hotel does not have many amenities. No pool or restaurant and no kitchen in the room. Parking included for 1 car. I had to purchase a $60 weekend parking permit. But that's true anywhere. It's farther up the boardwalk than some other hotels, but that was a plus because it's quieter. You do need to walk a few blocks to go to any restaurant, but, you are steps from the beach.
Beautiful sunrise from our balcony.

So great to be right on the beach. Being near the end of the board walk also made the beach area less busy which was very nice.

I’d like to give them a higher rating. The hotel is a good location and the room was fine but we had an unfortunate incident. After checking in, checking over the room, which was to our satisfaction, we went to dinner. When we got back we discovered one of the beds had an orange stain and was soaking wet. There was no obvious leak from the ceiling. We could only surmise that someone had been in the room and spilled something on the bed. It was too late to report that night so we bolted the door, shoved a chair up against it and crawled into the dry bed. We reported the incident first thing in the morning. We had to wait for Maintenance to arrive at 8:30. Maintenance was prompt but also could not see a source for the wet spot. It was still wet that morning. I requested a new room but was told that no rooms were available. The contaminated mattress was replaced and the bed remade. We were assured that they would continue to investigate the incident. I was told the General Manager would look into the issue when he returned. I never heard from him. No type of formal apology or some kind of compensation was offered. While the facility itself gets a 3 or 4. Hospitality gets a 0.
