Would not go to this hotel again. Staff with the exception of the attendant at the breakfast buffet was not very professional. The room as well as the Bathroom were very small and congested.

Upon arriving, the manager was outside dealing with a drunk patron so we had to wait a while. Upon his return, he made no apology and instead complained to us about the woman and her behavior. There was no concern for the fact that I was traveling with a child who witnessed the incident, that we had to wait, or that the room had only when bed when we expected two.

The stay was great. It was convenient to the beach. The staff were more than welcoming and helpful. The room service/food was excellent. I stayed on the first floor by the restaurant during a party and slept like a bay. Continental breakfast was a bit stingy, but still served its purpose.

Fairly nice hotel in a very busy location. Make sure you don't have a room facing the road.

Bathrooms were clean, beds were pretty comfortable, restaurant (with pass through from hotel) was very pretty and food was very good. Price was reasonable and staff was very friendly. Many other places to choose from in the vicinity if you want to venture out. Close to the highway with easy on, easy to find. Hotel offered a continental breakfast for free ex: cereal, bagels, juice, pastries and coffee. Staff was friendly and accommodating. Good place for a traveling sales person. Could use some sprucing up in the rooms although the room contained a refrigerator, microwave and coffee service. read more

We stayed 2 nights and the accommodations were lovely. The room was equipped with a king size bed, a little balcony, a fridge, microwave, coffeemaker. Very clean and spacious. Upscale. Convenient too many things. Lovely restaurants, but we did not dine there as we had commitments with family elsewhere, but it looked most appealing. The continental breakfast was quite nice.

I was very pleasantly surprised when I arrived. The room was more than I expected in terms of size, comfort, attractiveness and cleanliness. The staff was very friendly and courteous, even when I had to go to the front desk at 3 in the morning. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone who is looking for a place to stay while visiting Seaside but doesn't want to deal with the hassle and expense of staying on the island. read more
