The stay was ok but could have been better.
Pros:

The location and the view were great. The restaurant on site was good.

Cons:

When I arrived at the hotel my room wasn't cleaned and they had to move me to another room. The elevators were dirty and never cleaned. The free parking was good as well.

Adequate kitchenette; good view from balcony; maintenance issues.
Pros:

Nice hair dryer.

Cons:

Our second-floor balcony was above the restaurant (noisy music); you enter the condo through the bedroom; the door handle to the balcony was broken; the toaster didn’t work; laundry is on the second floor and bins of dirty towels and sheets littered the hallways, every day; wall clock battery was dead.

Ok for a few days at the oceanfront.
Pros:

Good location, room was large enough, balcony was nice to have with a view of the ocean, roll of paper towels was nice to have in the room, fridge was cold, a/c worked well, plenty of towels, good water pressure, nice smelling soap and lotion

Cons:

Was not cleaned very well- hair in the bathroom and sand in the carpet, there was a smell at times like foot odor, microwave door handle was broken,

Subpar. I only stayed because the room was prepaid through Booking.com
Pros:

The location was great.

Cons:

The property is a little rundown and dirty went to the bathroom on the first floor before unloading my car and a gas station bathroom was cleaner than that.

Get to the room and I couldn't determine whether or not my sheets were changed or not because they were so crinkled up. The bear looked like it was lower on one side and the other, and was not comfortable at all.

The bathroom was OK, but I didn't need to scrub it down a little bit for my comfort letter, the corners look like they had not been scrubbed in forever.

The floors did not look like they have been scrubbed at all, and the lamps in the room had never been wiped down, so yes, I will not be returning to the Barclay Towers.

Very nice
Pros:

Convenient location, was clean, staff helpful

Cons:

Not enough rolling carts when time to check in or out. We carried all our stuff both times. And maybe staggering check-in a little so not everyone at one time.

Very comfortable stay !
Pros:

Location ,friendly staff, ocean 8 restaurant,parking and comfortable

Cons:

My first night I experienced having a torn ripped up dirty worn out matress inside the couch pull out bed smh it was indecent I requested for a change that night but couldn’t receive until the next day but was given a protection cover sheet to put over the mattress. I receive another mattress the next day ! But I still think this kind of experiences shouldn’t have happened with the kind of money you pay for your stay. This was pretty much the only disappointment I had other than that I enjoyed my stay!
