We stayed at sunset motel for 4 nights in a queen double room. It has been comfortable and suited our needs. The room was cozy, clean, quiet, affordable and simple. It's 'no frills' so no toiletries, room cleaning or laundry but that's ok as it's clear. The beds were very comfortable and the amenities in the room and bathroom worked... More

Good location, friendly staff , old school style drive up motel. $100 incl tax on fri night for a pretty big room with 2 queen size beds and simple breakfast . Seemed good value so close to town ( we walked to dinner ) . AC a little noisy and bathroom needs updating - but clean and functional . Overall... More

If you want a place to sleep within walking distance of downtown Brevard, this is a great option. We enjoyed our two nights here. Our room (a Queen room) was a bit small, but we were not there to spend time in a motel room. We weren't interested in their breakfast, which consists of prepackaged pastries, cereal, oatmeal, and beverages.... More

The staff at the Sunset Motel was personable, friendly, and flexible, accommodating my request to leave my bike in their care for a few hours and allowing me an extra hour before check-out when I needed that little extra time. The rooms are clean, comfortable, and equipped with all the basics. Thanks to Glenda for her good cheer right when... More

have stayed here many years. new owner is making a real effort . pricing now varies with demand so value also varies . best to check rate ahead for your stay. some repairs and cosmetic improvements but much still needs to be done, which will require more investment. windows original and need replacing. Most a/c units old and loud. older... More

We are all confused as to why you gave us 4 out of 5 stars when you found so much wrong with the motel but I'd like to address the areas of concern you listed. Yes, the windows are original. We have no plans on replacing them but are slowly restoring them and replacing broken parts. Rooms 16 & 17... More

The motel has been updated to modern comforts. Each room's decor is different and I really enjoyed the decor in my room. Lori is very interested in making sure your stay is perfect. It's refreshing to be able to meet the owner instead of just hired help. My room was about the same size as Drury Inn and the refrigerator... More

The purpose of this review is not to comment on the facilities, or to compare an old fashioned motel with bigger and newer francise units. This is about hospitality. Helpfulness. Feeling good . And the relationship between innkeeper and guests. Lori, the owner, is open, friendly, and very helpful to the guests. She has a clear business plan and pays... More

The Sunset Motel is amazing -- one-of-a-kind. This is no ordinary motel. Its owner Lori has lovingly restored the rooms with a 50s theme. Lori and her staff are always looking to go the extra mile to take care on their guests and help them enjoy the beautiful area around Brevard. We spent nearly a week at the Sunset Motel,... More

We recently stayed 2 nights at this motel. Decent value for the price. Clean, but very small rooms! Very small fridge. The motel has been updated but i wouldn't say it is completely retro. A few "retro" effects in our room but it was not as well redone as i expected. The price is the best reason to stay here.... More

From the website, we thought this place looked quaint and well kept, but it was nothing as we expected. We visited on a weekend in May and it was cool enough to open windows, but of the four in our room, only one would open, not counting the small one in the bathroom. The screens didn't fit so a few...
