Quality Inn & Suites Georgetown - Seaford

I stayed at the Quality Inn & Suites in Georgetown, DE, and unfortunately, my experience was anything but “quality.” I chose this hotel because it was dog-friendly, and while the check-in staff was pleasant, that was about the only positive. The room was advertised online at $92, but when I arrived in person, they tried to charge me $174. After I questioned the price, the clerk applied a AAA discount and brought it down to $150.01. I would’ve booked online, but since there were no refunds offered, I wanted to confirm in person that I was getting a dog-friendly room first.

When we walked into the room, we were immediately hit with an overwhelming scent of men’s cologne. I assumed it was an attempt to mask a pet odor and tried to give it some grace. But the room itself was disappointing—beat-up furniture, four small pillows, one thin coverlet, and towels that barely qualified as bath-sized. The entire carpet was soaking wet, which made the room feel damp and uncomfortable. Walking on it barefoot was gross, but we were exhausted from traveling and decided to tough it out.

While adjusting the air conditioning, my husband found two air fresheners hidden inside the unit—explaining the overpowering cologne smell. Unfortunately, it triggered his allergies so badly that he had to take medication and use his inhaler.

Just when we managed to fall asleep, a loud party started in the room above us at 1:30 a.m. It lasted over two hours. Between the damp room, the strong scent, poor air quality, and the noise, we finally gave up and checked out at 3:00 a.m.

We let the front desk know, and while the staff was apologetic, they brushed it off as “not their department.” We were too tired and frustrated to argue.

I rarely leave bad reviews, but this experience was unacceptable. I wouldn’t want someone else to go through what we did. Save yourself the trouble—find somewhere else to stay.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ A solid 3-star stay!
If you’re looking for a place to spend a few nights with a decent bed and a clean bathroom, Quality Inn Suites in Georgetown, Delaware is a great option.

Let’s be clear — this isn’t a 4 or 5-star hotel, but I’d confidently rate it a solid 3 stars based on the quality of the bedroom, bathroom, and the affordable price.

One of the highlights for me was the continental breakfast — especially the coffee! As a coffee drinker, I was pleasantly surprised. It was fresh, hot, and just what I needed to start the day. The breakfast setup included the essentials: bread, bagels, a working toaster, and even a waffle maker — a nice touch!

There’s also a small pool, which is great if you just want to cool off and relax for a bit.

That said, don’t expect luxury — there’s no daily housekeeping, and some common areas like the hallway could use a little extra attention. Still, the staff was friendly and courteous, which made a big difference.

We stayed for two nights while exploring the area’s antique shops, wineries, and breweries, and this hotel met all our basic needs. For a clean, comfortable, and reasonably priced place to rest — this worked just fine.

Travel so far to stay for one night and can't even get into the room until 3. Understand they need to clean the rooms but reserved it a week ago and was told that I can check in an hour early. It's called customer satisfaction. Bend a little.
