The staff were personable and wonderful to communicate with. The location was nice. The room was clean. We stayed for one night but would consider staying there again. They could update the rooms but they aren’t terrible.

Furniture and Technology was not to date. The railing had rotted wood and the room smelt very, very musty. The view of the water is from the 3rd floor walkway. The pool is advertised as heated but very cold. No Thanks!

Arrived, no one at front desk to greet us. Finally, attendant showed up, told us room would be ready at 2:00. Not the original quote of 11:00. We told attendant that was unacceptable, we’d find a hotel that could check us in, as we had been on the road for 12 hours. Horror story of a situation. They had better not charge us

The room was subpar. The beds were broken down. The carpet looked old an worn. The furniture was painted over and scarred and chipped. There was no sea view from the Sea View Motel.

Property would benefit from an overall overhaul. The most basic of amenities available. The place had a worn old aesthetic. Good enough for sleeping & showering and that’s about it. SeaView???? Only in your dreams. Towel hook on the bathroom door, as well as the towel bar by the bathroom sink were literally falling off. A/C worked well. Plenty of hot water. Bed was comfortable enough. Staff seemed attentive to trying to keep up with cleaning up. But would not consider staying there again.

This was an outdated property but clean and convenient as you could walk to the beach and downtown within 25 minutes. It needs some updating. It seemed a bit overpriced for the property even on the weekend. Our room was across from a stairway so we couldn't sit on the balcony unless we faced the door of the adjacent room which was awkward looking into their room. They did let us park early before check in so we could walk to the beach without having to park at a beach lot which was a plus but was still a 20 min walk with all of our gear. Overall OK.

I booked a room August 7th because we needed a place to stay for a night for our boat tour on Saturday. Unfortunately the boat tour got canceled due to weather so we asked if we could cancel the room and they said absolutely not because it had to be 10 days before the check in date. We didn’t even have a 10 day window since we booked on the 7th and check in was the 10th. They refused our refund so we had to go to the hotel for a night with nothing planned, not ideal but we said whatever since they weren’t budging. Never mind you, we’ve never had an issue canceling with any other hotel. Then when we got to the hotel, the air and everything in the room felt humid and damp, and I noticed the bedding was absolutely disgusting and discolored. The mattress had a huge piss stain in the middle. Thank god we brought our own things, but after pretty much refusing a refund to us and then giving us a disgusting bed, like be for real..I absolutely would not recommend, spend a tad more and not stay in a run down building. I was not happy, and the manager couldn’t give a crap.

Great location, great room, needs better service
The room was awesome for our girls weekend with a full kitchen and bedroom seperate (Romantic Suite with Jacuzzi tub). Beds were good, place was clean and nicely decorated. The biggest issue was noone there to check you in or out & despite having a Ring doorbell, no one came. 20 min to get someone to check us and I just left the key. Need front desk help there consistently.

Hoodwinked and disappointed
I’m going to be honest here. This is a pretty tired old hotel with lots of old hotel furniture. The box springs were stained, the sheets were dingy and wrinkled. The arms of the upholsterer furniture were greasy and stained. I paid $424 for this room which in mho was just price gouging. I was very disappointed and really felt ripped off and deceived. Also, FYI there is no Sea View at the Sea View maybe in the winter when all the trees have shed their leaves

Overall great experience staying here. The rooms and bedding were nice, as well as the dresser/closet space for your things. Only negative was that there was dried make up was stained on the bathroom sink, and slightly moldy shower curtains.

Moldy smell
Check in was easy, the issue was our room had an awful smell that hit you as soon as you walk into the room. We asked to get a new room which they did but ran into the same issue. We ended up getting a full refund and stayed somewhere else. Beside the smell the pictures aren’t updated
