Jake at the front desk was the only positive in our experience. He was very customer service oriented. Held out bags and helped with information to enjoy our stay. That being said - When we were eventually able to check in it was another male employee - the night guy obviously and in need of a customer service class. We did not get the room we thought we rented (King/Oceanview) - then our room (206) had mold in the bathroom and an awful odor (mold/butane smell). Tried to air out and when we returned from dinner the plaster from the ceiling in the bathroom had fallen on the floor and another room by us that was unrented had the door left unsecured (210) - which we reported at the same time as the plaster issue. Tried to give us the "open" room (210) - which we declined - and gave us an "upgrade" to a partial view room (214) - no help offered to change rooms (could have offered the baggage cart) but on our own mind you 10:30pm - moved rooms - door did not open all the way so had to maneuver luggage to the right - close door to go left to get around. Deadbolt not working - The recessed light in the bathroom was a little too recessed/we could see the insulation/wires in the ceiling and the toilet was not secured to the floor - still had shims under it - that could have been a mess. The hotel looks nothing like the pictures - paint chipping - plaster chunking off everywhere - odors - nothing like what was expected. Very Disappointed!!

Will not stay again

When we first got to the small room we sat on the bed and a roach ran across and jumped off the bed. The office/breakfast area roof had a bad leak that was leaking rain water on the bagels.

We have stayed there before, we had weekend shows at the WindJammer. We were told by Expedia we had an Oceanfront room. Not what we got, toilet was running when we got in, my husband fixed that. The shower curtain did not fit. There was a flood every time we showered. Rust holes in the bathroom. I only agreed to stay there for the Oceanfront room, which they told me Expedia doesn’t have the rights to sell. Sorry not happy at all. For the price I paid I would have gone somewhere else. 100 percent.

Linens fluffy, white. Odor of Chemicals for cleaning, probably to fight mold, were so strong they triggered a serious asthma attack in my husband. Odor of mold broke through and seemed disseminated as air conditioner came on. We had to check out early and suffer financial loss. Many areas of room and areas of facility needed repair and painting. Disappointing as location was excellent.

Inconvenient parking. Had to pay for parking. Everything felt damp and wet. The bed pillows and blankets were wet feeling. Paid $569 for this place for one night and it was like a cheap motel. The lady at the front desk was extremely unhelpful and was sitting on the couch watching tv. Absolutely do not recommend.

Aging hotel needs an upgrade.

Would it kill them to repair the hole in the ceiling above the shower head? Also good luck with parking. The onsite parking is limited to about 10 slots under the building, very cramped. Over flow parking is 75 yards away in a very congested area.

Do not bother spending more money on a sea view vs regular room as the standard rooms get the same view as you do just a little further back. Both rooms you have to step outside to see the ocean. The shower flooded the bathroom floor everytime we showered. Only thing good about this motel was that it was right on the ocean. Would also be nice if they told you that you had to pay to park in their lot at the time of booking. Front desk people were not friendly at all.

Not pleased with the stay at all. The hotel is lit up like the 4th of July which is fine until its time to sleep. The blinds did not block out the light at all so I had put towels up so we could sleep. The bathroom door would not close nor would it lock. Toilet paper holder was non existent and towel holder was falling off the wall. I had to fix the toilet at least 5 times because the chain came off and it either wouldn't flush or would constantly run because the chain got under the flapper. Taking a shower while the curtain was stuck to my body was rather annoying because curtain rod is curved into the shower and theres no place to put anything in the shower other than the floor. The water would pool in the corner behind the toilet. The only mirror is in the bathroom. Would be nice if there was a mirror outside the bathroom so more than 1 person can get ready to go out at a time. There's only 1 small trash can in the bathroom and there's not enough room to put toiletries so they're more convenient. No place to sit other than the beds. The beds had hair all on and in them. There was a small bench behind the door but had to put bags on it to get them out of the way. And one last thing, the elevator was out of order for a day because someone had decided to doo doo in there one night. They did have it up and running by the next day. Still had a lingering odor tho. It is convenient to the beach but I would not ever stay here again nor would I recommend it to anyone.
Bathroom with no counter space.
This is where the water would pool
