Excellent
Pros:

The hotel was excellent, especially the breathtaking ocean view that made the stay truly relaxing and memorable. Every morning, waking up to the sound of the waves and the beautiful scenery created a peaceful atmosphere that added so much comfort to the experience. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and well-maintained, which made the stay even more enjoyable. One of the best parts of the experience was the front desk staff, who were incredibly helpful and professional throughout the visit. They assisted with every request promptly and always greeted guests with warm smiles and kindness. Their friendly attitude and willingness to help made me feel welcomed and valued as a guest. It is rare to find such genuinely nice and caring people who go above and beyond to ensure visitors have a pleasant stay. Overall, the combination of the stunning ocean view, comfortable accommodations, and outstanding hospitality made the hotel experience unforgettable, and I would gladly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing and enjoyable vacation.

The night clerk was hard to understand and TV didn’t allow changing the volume and needed plugged in to turn on?
Pros:

The property wasn’t what I reserved. I thought I was booking the Best Western Plus on the west end of Seawall but when I double checked my confirmation it was the wrong hotel. The one we stayed in was still being renovated and there we several issues like rain had come in under the door and we mopped it up with towels.

Cons:

Being charged to park for 4 nights while we were on the cruise!

Meh. Good location. Not a good value in all the other ways.
Pros:

Location

Cons:

No coffeemaker as stated. No housekeeping during stay. We asked for new sheets for one of the beds because they got dirty from our baby playing at the beach and they said housekeeping was closed, so no new sheets. Had to sleep on bare mattress our last day. Read the fine print. Parking is $15 a night. You have to search around a lot in the property details to find this fact. I tried to resolve all of this with the staff and received zero help, an apology or anything. $200 a night for a motel of this level is not a good value. I wish we would’ve just stayed further away and just paid for parking on the Seawall. Would’ve been better facilities and cheaper overall. We are seasoned travelers.

Pros:

Only thing I like is that it's right across from the beach at a light making it easy to cross.

Cons:

For starters, the hidden fee for parking each day just to be there, not even mentioned when you book the room. By the time we paid for the room, parking, pet fee of 25 a day, and 100 dollar deposit, we could have paid for a nice room. The rooms are dirty and very well worn, making a pet fee honestly rediculous. There was water dripping from a metal plate above the shower, seeming from upstairs room. The TV did not work right at all. What picture it had would come in at times and then parts of the picture were blackened at times. The screen looked like it was messed up. When I asked to have a couple towels they said they didn't have enough. None of the ice machines worked I was directed to. I feel that I should have a partial refund. They used to be decent facilities there. Not sure what has happened. There's more but I don't want to rant anymore, cause I'm usually pretty easy going.

This place is a scam
Pros:

Nothing

Cons:

I got a hotel room for a family member. When he arrived they wouldn't let him stay without an $200 damage deposit. When I attempted to contact the hotel the phone number rang until the call dropped. Even Booking.com could not reach the hotel. I attempted to send an email but never got a response.
