Top East Beach Hotel Reviews

The Inn at East Beach

The Inn at East Beach

8/10 Good
"Plumbing issues with the room (leaking shower head, faucet that sprayed). Some doors either didn't shut or were hard to deadbolt at night. Limited breakfast options. Parking in their safer lot was $15 per night vs. free if you could even find a place on the street. However, it was walking distance to the beach and easy to drive to the Wharfs."
