For the reasonable cost, this property and room were wonderful. You don't pay extra for services, so you get exactly what is stated. The room was a great location and it was very clean. I've paid way more to stay in rooms in Ocean Shores that weren't as nice. I'd come back!

Our stay was good. We were in room #2, Captains Quarters. The property was nicely updated and clean. We enjoyed the kitchen a lot, there was a variety of cookware and bakeware as well as utensils available to cook for a large family. However it was tight for two people to cook in the space. The site listed the room as having 2 bathrooms, this was a bit misleading as there was one full bath and one half bath. Only one shower for 7 people was a bit rough but we made it work. The bathrooms were clean but there was some mildew in the caulking. The upstairs loft contained one double bed and a small sofa bed. It was very hot and muggy upstairs when we arrived and there are no windows, and no thermostat upstairs, but fans were provided. It was cool when we were there, around 60 most days, and the loft cooled down at night, most nights. There were also no outlets by the bed in the loft. The dining room table seats 6 so if you have a large party some will have to sit at the bar, this was fine for meals but a bit more difficult when playing games as a family. The living space is quite small. There is free onsite laundry which was very helpful. The laundry area contained a ton of games and puzzles to borrow as well as extra towels, toilet paper, etc. This was very nice and made us feel welcome and at home. Overall we enjoyed our stay, the location was great, and it was a very good value for the price.

We were late getting into our room as it wasn’t ready at the stated time. Room Is fine, amenities are space. Older hotel So you hear everyone around you. Bathroom was not fully stocked and couldn’t find extra toilet paper. Overall was a decent stay but lacked what we were looking for.

It's great! Each room that I saw has a huge wall-sized beautiful painting that fits the nature theme of the hotel. I love the system that doesn't require a check-in desk or room key. When I walked in the room there was a beautiful slideshow of natire scenes playing on the TV accompanied by beautiful music. The people who run this hotel and those who clean the rooms obviosly take pride in what they do. I'll stay here again 100%

We stayed in unit #6 — it had 3 beds across 2 rooms and 1 bathroom. It looked even nicer than advertised! The space was clean and comfortable, with white sheets, a mini refrigerator, a big table, a TV, and a coffee maker. The location is great — just cross Oceanside Boulevard and you're right at the beach. There are several places nearby for breakfast and dinner, plus two ice cream shops within walking distance. There’s even a pizza place and a rental spot where you can get electric bikes for the beach. One minor downside was the thin walls — in the evening, we could hear people talking in the next room. But it wasn’t a big deal, and leaving the TV on with some relaxing music helped cover the sound. Another issue is the parking situation. It doesn’t seem like there are enough spaces for at least one car per room. Parking spots should be clearly numbered so each guest can park in front of their room. TO THE OWNER: The shower curtain rod is not stable. It fell on my husband's head when he pulled the curtain open. Please have someone fix it as soon as possible to avoid further accidents. Thank you. Great value and location — we enjoyed our stay!

I would definitely stay here again. Check-in is done remotely which was new to me but it was seamless and they were very responsive. Keurig coffee and real half-and-half creamer was great to have in the room. Super convenient location. Great price. Comfy beds. No complaints here. Thanks!

Everything was great except being charged more in taxes than the cost of the stay. That math doesn’t check out. The photos on the website made it look like there was a kitchen and dining area, but it was a microwave and a tiny fridge. I would normally be ok with that except I feel like we were deceived. There’s no reason for that because it’s a great location and a clean, quiet hotel. Too bad.

My expectations weren't high. I was looking for a standard beach hotel. What we got was a nicely updated hotel that was convenient to the beach, clean, and quiet. It also had the best pillow I have ever slept on. I came home and bought the same one. Wonderdul experience. We loved our stay and we will return next time we are in the area. Perfect for us, two adults and one toddler.
