Gulfview Beach Hotel

Formerly in a service program, I have stayed in some pretty cheap hotels, this one should be exactly that: cheap. It’s not however. We were not allowed to check in early, which is understandable. Then we were given a room on the first floor with a door to the parking lot, I have a policy where I never stay on the first floor if there is a door especially with a night club next door. They moved us up into a room with a balcony facing scaffolding and construction, still somewhat understandable, it’s a busy weekend but NOT for what we paid.
The beach is rock and probably 25 feet large. Other people sneak in and there’s room for maybe two families tops. We had already paid to stay here two nights and made the best of it by getting seats by the pool closest to the beach. But you still have to walk down to the beach ect.
All in all, it’s on the beach and there are beds. If you require the minimum and don’t care about getting a fair deal by all means stay here. Frankly we got the short end of the stick and they took our money regardless. Don’t spend your money here if this is a vacation you’ve worked hard to be able to afford, they’re getting the best of people and it’s trashy.

We paid 115/​night get a beach ocean Window view room. double beds are big and comfortable .they offer a small stove for some customers who need to use it. Outdoor Including massage pool, swim pool, small sand area for kids have fun. The room’s key is fine, the room smell is fresh, I got the free wifi for our phone s and iPad. front desk service is friendly. the bar next to me, I like music, I don’t mind to enjoy little later at night. nothing is complain. Like it.

Excellent value! Amazing views. Nice beach side pool deck. Room /​hotel is a little dated and could use some freshening up but for the price and friendly staff you can’t beat it!

I am local and was having a night away from the kids. I decided to stay here, the price seemed decent, it’s on the water and close to restaurants. Parking was tight, waking into the lobby and check In was smooth. The elevator smelled like a cheap motel and upon entering the room there were marks on the wall, a funny smell, a real old stove and fridge that I was scared to use. There were two beds in the room. The right sided bed was made nicely yet for some odd reason the left side bed looked like someone was laying on it before we arrived (photo attached). That was weird and not professional. The bed wasn’t comfortable either. There are plenty of other better hotels to stay at on the beach in my opinion.

Priced right, friendly staff they are updating the rooms but over all nice stay

What a horrible experience for the 10 minutes I was
There. This is a place that bodies go to die.
Total scam — looks even worse than their pictures — much worse. I said I wanted a refund because there was already bugs in my room and it was uninhabitable — they said they wouldn’t do that! I just peeked in the room! What a scam.
I told them they could either kindly refund me the money, or I’d unfortunately have to call my CC company and dispute the charges. They still wouldn’t cooperate.
Please — don’t stay here. It’s a beautiful area with many great hotels… this is not even close to being one of them.

Für fast 90 € die Nacht hatte ich mir mehr erwartet. In einem Motel für den halben Preis wäre es wahrscheinlich mindestens genauso gut wenn nicht besser gewesen. Nebenan im Nachbarhotel spielte eine Band bis 0.30 Uhr. Und unser Zimmer war direkt im Erdgeschoss neben Hoteleingang und Hintereingang vom Strand mit Ausblick auf den Pool. wir hatten nach einem anderen Zimmer gefragt, war aber anscheinend keins mehr frei.
Die direkte Lage am Strand ist einen Stern wert. Die Klimaanlagen waren sehr laut und die Bettdecke war schmutzig. Außerdem stand ein gefährlicher Eisenbügel vom Bett hervor an welchem man sich schnell verletzen könnte. Sauber war es im Allgemeinen auch nicht wirklich.
Ich freue mich schon auf das nächste Hotel.

This hotel has a perfect beach access, hot tub, and pool which may cover for the mediocre facility. It can be a hit or miss depending on whether you are here to relax or party. We didn’t know this until we got here and heard music being blasted at the hotel, but there is a dj/​large outdoor party every weekend. If you are planning to stay here on a weekend, you are not going to get much sleep (yes they have a party on sun too). But if you are a young crowd, this is a perfect spot to crash after going to the party right next door. Our room was clean enough, but the tub had a drainage prob. We basically had to shower in water up to half of our calves. The room was also very humid and the wifi doesn’t work on your phone.

Just an Econolodge! One star only because it has a bed, which is what we needed. We flew in super early and attempted to check in to a painfully obvious empty hotel– even offered to pay extra for the early inconvenience and was told simply «nope» by the gentleman behind the counter. We were told NONE of the rooms were clean. Ew. For being an off-​season and not even ONE room clean it should raise an eyebrow. We ate breakfast and drove around with an incredibly cranky tired toddler in the back for about 3 hours and attempted a check-​in again. This time a lady behind the counter told us she cold have the room done in an hour. An hour later we were told it would be another hour because the carpet was drying. While I appreciate clean carpets, we could have jumped next door to the Holiday Inn and our trip could have started on a much happier note. In fact, as we were checking out, we saw a family do just that… Smart folks.

Good value for the money. Has private beach, but small and gulf front with lots of fish, and hence, pelicans, which are fun to watch, but not swim with.
Nice heated pool with hot tub. It was nice being able to hear the bands from neighboring properties late into the night, but pity the people trying to sleep early, because it was pretty loud.
Rooms were dated but offered lots of amenities like stovetop, frig, and balcony for fresh air. Downers are housekeeping not very thorough and skimpy towels. Pros are close location to everything.
