Top Short Beach Hotel Reviews

The Surfside Hotel

The Surfside Hotel

8/10 Good
"WARNING: NO ELEVATOR and all the rooms are upstairs. The property is right on the beach but our room had a view of the parking lot for $220 a night. The rooms are decades older design with a large clean main room and small bathroom with virtually no counter space. The Mitsubishi split heat pump would not provide heat only cooling. Shower water was only lukewarm. This makes you appreciate the higher standards of the larger hotel chains such as Marriott or Hilton when they are available in the area."
