Sorry to say that we had to ask them to clean the room after we arrived because the floors were dirty. We also didn’t know that there was washer and dryer on the second floor. It would have been nice if the person at the front desk would have told us about that.

Every room has an ocean view. The rooms are updated, clean, and comfortable. First floor rooms open onto the pool deck, with steps to the beach. Upper floors have balconies overlooking the Atlantic. The sliding glass doors are equipped with charlie bars for security. The rooms are so very quiet! Outside the room I could hear dogs barking, children playing, traffic, music playing, etc. Indoors it was completely quiet. Loved that! And the shower! A great big rain showerhead, with good, strong water pressure. The beds were comfortable enough. We would definitely stay there again.

They changed my room to one without a kitchen as I reserved and charged me $464 for 45 minute stay while I disputed on Expedia. Very rude staff, no manager available. Beware, disputed with my bank, will be filing a police report.

I cannot say enough good things about how wonderful The customer service was at the Garden City Inn. The receptionist at the front desk named Lunchbox went over and beyond to make me feel comfortable. I had just fallen on the sidewalk and she was so kind and gave me a Band-Aid and helped me to clean up and then was able to get me a room right away. I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone of my friends. The rooms were clean and the staff was very courteous and kind Garden City Inn is hidden gem!

Ocean front! The sunrise was gorgeous from our balcony. The room appeared to have been recently renovated and was very clean. The room was quiet and the bed comfortable. We slept great! We used Lyft for transportation and it was readily available and inexpensive. No elevator but not an issue for us.

Easy check in and very affordable. Laporsha at the front desk was beyond exceptional. Give that girl a raise. Cleaning staff upon check out ran out to the parking lot with a sweatshirt I left behind. I didn’t catch her name but since we are giving laporsha a raise let’s give her one too. Will definitely be back due to these two individuals.

Hotels was very outdated the phone didn’t work the TV did not work however it was right on the beach and the view was amazing if you’re willing to sacrifice the comfort of a quality room and amenities for a view then it’s worth it
