Beachside Inn

Beachside Inn

6/10 Okay
"We stayed at this hotel for five nights. During our stay, we requested housekeeping on nights 2 and 4; however, on night 4 the service was missed and never completed. After a long day out, we returned late to find our room still dirty. We had to request at least clean towels, since a full cleaning was no longer available at that hour. Overall, the rooms could use an update. The carpets, while not visibly dirty, are quite old and make the space feel worn. The rooms definitely need some TLC. The breakfast included in the rate is exactly the same every single day. For longer stays, this becomes repetitive very quickly. It would be great if they could rotate the options at least every couple of days. The same goes for the wine, cheese, and grapes offered to guests—it’s a nice touch, but also identical each day. On a positive note, the staff is friendly and respectful, and the location is great, with a beautiful ocean view just across the street. Overall, the hotel has good potential, but there are several details that could significantly improve the guest experience."
