Beds were very comfortable with crisp clean sheets. Room smelled freshly cleaned. The light to the bathroom was on the outside of the bathroom and a little annoying in the middle of the night because it shines the light into the bedroom. Loved that clean towels were available anytime for guests to grab.

On the beach with easy access to everything. Freindly staff and prompt service, very nice continental breakfast in the mornings. Though a little run down, the room was very small and shower curtain lets water onto floor requiring an extra towel. There is a larger room available that faces the ocean but of course cost more. Pics in expedia shows the large room.

Location was excellent, no attendant after 10pm. Free breakfast in the morning started at 0730, not 0630... no place to sit and eat, although breakfast was pancakes and cereal. Did like code for door instead of room key. Staff friendly.

The location of seaside inn is the only good thing about it . No balcony rooms at an ocean front hotel is ridiculous. The staff was not helpful, the rooms are very very small and when it rained one night the rain came I. Under our door . One morning the cleaning guy came in without knocking and we were scared . Over all not a good experience . We will not be staying there again

Cozy hotel on the beach

The room was dated, and we experienced a leaky ceiling in the bathroom. Room was tiny and a little tough to navigate with 4 adults. The worker at the desk was extremely helpful and she really took the time to make our stay right.

The room was ok, no chairs at the table on the wall. The bathroom the toilet was not secure kept trying to fall over, sink same way. Shower kept flooding because shower curtain was too short and the rod was installed backwards, the bottom trim by shower exposed a hole and was in terrible condition exposing chipped paint and half the wall was gone. The bathroom was in poor condition the room was in ok condition it served it’s purpose we slept and left but if staying in for a longer period of time would not be ideal.

1. Room was not a deluxe as advertised. 2. I paid for partial ocean view! We had a small window in the back corner with shutters. You had to peek through and look over a palm tree to get a tiny glimpse of the ocean. 3. I went to the vending machine located on the second floor right outside our room and there was a big pile of loose poop! 4. I was awakened on my second morning to drilling and hammering. I called the front desk and ask what was going on and he just simply said it appears to be construction work! I said here in the hotel and he said yes. It was horrible! 5. I am handicapped and paid 100.00 to park at the hotel. There was never any spots open and had to park two streets over. 6. I paid a total of $1500.00 and the worse stay I have ever had! I never give negative reviews but you asked. 7. I thought I was being too picky but I spoke with another guest and she was checking out to go to another hotel because it was such a disappointment.

Great beachfront hotel

We were there to see a band at the venue next door, so location was great. Restaurants within walking distance. Beach was easily accessible. Parking was a bit cramped, but we did get a spot. Hotel in need of some updates, but great location for our needs!

There is FREE parking a single block away on 9th Ave, less than 5 minute walk. Now to the review: I personally do not like 2 things when i pay $300 for a single night at a hotel: 1: blood on my sheets 2: rude employees 1. We walked into a “clean room” and there was sand all over the floor and then we saw blood on the sheets. It looked old but was still pretty disgusting. 2. The employee who checked us in, they borderline forced us to buy the $20 per night parking and when we declined she said “good luck finding parking yourself, you’ll have to deal with that and pay the city”. We drive down a single block and found FREE parking… I hope people see this and don’t pay the hotel for parking if you are able walk about 3 minutes down the road. Now for the good: Location is prime. 1 min walk to the beach. The hotel has its own boardwalk. Has a free breakfast with a few options. The king with “partial view” is great for a couple.

Great location, clean room

The location of the hotel was right on the ocean, which is so convenient. Our room was close to the office and you could hear a lot of talking and foot traffic. There is only a blind in the room and not a curtain, so the exterior light made the room bright all night. The shower had low water pressure. This could be because of the shower wand. The tv was positioned in an odd place. It would have to be moved on the mount so you wouldn’t hit your head on it when coming out of the bathroom. You could not see the tv unless you were on your side in the bed. However, the proximity to the beach was great and the room was clean!!
