This was my third stay at Pier Blue. Although it is an older property and could use a thorough update, I keep coming back for the location, the cleanliness and the reasonable rates. I must say, though, that there was one dirty hand towel on the shower curtain rod left from the previous guest. It was hidden by the shower curtain so I understand how it was overlooked. It was gross, though.

When you drive up this property doesn't look the best. A little run down (drab) looking. The front office is old school with a paper check-in form. Although a bit dated check-in was good. The service desk agent was nice and greeted me by name. He offered a bottle of water for my dog and I. We were given one room and when I went to the room ir was wide open. This made me feel a uncomfortable as it was getting dark and bugs. I asked the front desk for a different room. I got a new room right away. The room itself was large and clean. It was a corner room. The first night was great. The second night I had a neighbor upstairs and you could hear everything. They did not stop moving around the room from the moment they checked-in to their check-out. They left several times throughout the night too. I mentioned this at the desk. The agent was nice and understanding. He offered to refund the pet fee. It was nice of the hotel to offer this as I did not get any sleep and it was hard to focus on work. Overall this was not a bad stay. The room was comfortable and clean.

Are You Kidding?

Overall, this was a very dated hotel. The old chairs in the lobby were very dirty. There was a dead bug on the floor in our room. There was a towel from a prior guest hanging on the back of the door. It felt like a dorm room. The sheets were permanently stained. We will not be staying there again. Very disappointed.
