Reviews

3.2 / 5

The hotel has a convenient location near the beach and restaurants, with friendly staff. However, many guests have reported issues with cleanliness, particularly the presence of roaches in the rooms. The property appears to be outdated and in need of maintenance.

    The night girl checking me in...The other girls are nice. The cocaroachs, the broken toilet, it is outdated, it is a motel not hotel. Very shady people around, I can't stand cocaroaches or any bugs, I was also getting bit by something in bed, had a rash, them landlines usually dont work, dangerous, some doors are warped & you can't get out or in, sometimes keys dont work. The woman in the morning is downright mean, her name is SHRUTI BATRA, she should not be in this business, I was told she is l8ke that because she is going through family problems, that is no excuse. I have been in the hospitality business my whole life. I worked for the Marriott Hotel, I was a Flight Attendant, grew up in the restaurant business since 12 years young, I have been around the world. I worked in marketing on Park Avenue in Manhattan, I was hired by Brides magazine for the head publisher, I was a HHC aid, music videos, modeling, I find my experience was appaling. Stay far away from this place.

    The room was relatively clean, just some minor dead bugs here and there. Had to search for a few outlets in order to get the lamps to work. Had a bit of a noise issue, but that's not the hotels fault. Overall, it was a pleasant stay. Will come back again.

    Location was convenient for my activities on the weekend. Hotel policy for third party bookings was not what I'm used to. I had two separate bookings and wanted to stay in the same room for my convenience. But there was a ridiculous early check-in fee. So now you have to clean this room I'm in and get another one ready and I'll get fresh linen since you didn't provide any.. They need to increase their pest control budget found same insects in two different rooms.

    The person who was on duty that day was terrible. She gave us very poor information about how to get to the beach — you have to walk to get there, and they never explained that. We arrived an hour early, and they had a room available, but if we wanted it early we had to pay extra. She was very rude and inconsiderate, just sitting there watching TV. They don’t even have a restroom for guests to use while waiting for check-in, so we had to go find a bathroom at McDonald’s. In short, it was a disaster. The microwave didn’t work, and remember, the beach is not close at all. Bad service and misleading information they don’t tell you about.

    Hello, I stayed at Ocean Reef Resort this weekend and was very disappointed with the condition of the property. The room was dirty, the bed was uncomfortable, and several fixtures were rusty. In addition, the stairways and common areas were not clean. While the location is great and the staff were courteous, the overall experience did not meet basic cleanliness and comfort standards. I would appreciate a response regarding how this issue will be addressed, and whether any compensation or resolution can be offered. Thank you.

    Front desk was attentive to my request for first floor room with a mobility issue. Room was spacious and clean. My only issue was that the hotel descpition says they are a four minute walk to the beach. Simply not true. They have no access. The front desk told me to cross the road and go thru the lobby of the resort and out through their tiki bar to the beach. Upon arrival there are clear signs that there is no public access to the beach it for their resort guest only. So that was a bit sketchy.

    I strongly advise against staying here. The hotel was filthy—rooms had pubic hair on the sheets, which is completely unacceptable and unsafe. The property clearly does not meet basic hygiene standards. On top of that, the customer service was horrible; staff were unhelpful and dismissive when we raised concerns. I would never return and recommend anyone looking for a safe and clean place to stay look elsewhere.

    Staff were very kind and accommodating. The second day, the staff asked if we wanted our room serviced. We said yes and walked into the smell of bleach. Everything was refreshed, clean, and orderly. We absolutely loved the pool and garden area and the shared patio area on the second floor. This was the perfect quick trip spot for what we needed. The room felt very spacious with several outlet options which is always much appreciated. The A/C ran great and was easily adjustable. The water pressure was decent in the shower, and we had no complaints with the temperature adjustment. We didn’t have a car with us but they had plenty open spaces for guests as well.

    The room was disgusting. Hair all over the floor and bathroom shower. Stains on the bed sheets. I tried talking to the front desk agent to have room cleaned. She tried to explain to me that that’s how the broom works. It doesn’t actually pick up the hair it just pushes it to the corners. I asked if they could vacuum it up she said they didn’t have a vacuum. The fact that she was trying to justify that that’s how they clean was horrendous! I tried canceling hotel but they would not let me. I have to go to Walgreens and buy both Lysol wipes and spray. I don’t believe this room had been cleaned at all. DO NOT STAY HERE!! Not worth the cheap price.

    There were homeless people hanging around the pool and in the courtyard. The pictures look much much nicer than that place actually is. It’s in a state of disrepair. I wouldn’t get in the pool. The room was very depressing and dark being in a back corner. It wasn’t very clean and things were broken and damaged and I couldn’t get the remote to work on the TV. I paid upfront for two nights without seeing the place ended up having a family emergency and tried to get a reimbursement for the second night and they refused since I booked it through booking.com. So buyer beware especially if you don’t look at a property first. I’ve learned my lesson.

    Bed was comfortable 1) found 2 roaches (alive) 2) hair in the shower drain so bad water wouldn't go down 3) 4 burn marks on the edge of the tub 4) mold on the trim in the bathroom 5) mold and active water leak under the bathroom sink 6) hole in the ceiling above bed 7) Paint pealing on the ceiling in the shower 8) The shower curtain road was broken and kept falling 9) hair found in every part of the room 10) fridge barely worked to keep items cold 11) took a minimum of 3 minutes to heat up anything in the microwave 12) dresser drawers were broken and wouldn't properly close 13) front door while closed all the way and locked still allowed light and wind to come thru 14) cheap dollar store power strips used on the side of the bed and for the microwave, coffee maker, and fridge all are loose and barely work. 14) exposed wires coming from a utility closet to the middle of the room improperly secured. 15) The floors didn't appear to have been swept in anyway as my wife ended up with a piece of glass in her foot. 16) Every surface area in the entire room had not been dusted or cleaned in quite some time 17) The front desk evening worker was not the most pleasant. But the morning older gentleman was pleasant 18) The tv remote was sticky and visibly dirty and not just in the cracks. 19) If you are sitting on the toilet and you need to open the bathroom door for any reason, good luck, cause it isn't gonna happen. The only positive takeaway was their were a lot of options to get food and groceries nearby. And mcds is accross the street.

    After checking in I called Expedia to have the balance of my reservation canceled. They said they needed to check with the hotel. The hotel refused I was put in a room right outside the elevator. Everyone who got on and off the elevator could look into my room, the room also stunk like smoke, even though it was supposed to be a non-smoking room. The hotel was kind enough to move me to another room, which was slightly better. The hotel is old rundown dirty, and I contacted Expedia again asking them to take this property off their listings because it’s disgusting. This hotel wasn’t even worth $50 a night.

    The room itself was comfortable enough, but it could use some maintenance and updates. A few fixtures and finishes showed signs of wear, and refreshing these would really improve the overall guest experience. Despite that, the staff were pleasant, the price was reasonable, and the location made the stay worthwhile. With some room improvements, this property could be an even stronger option for future visits.

    Cons- the hotel is a little run down looking. Our door was hard to shut, the refrigerator leaked water when we first got there but then stopped. The remote didn't work very well. And the windows were thin, so I could hear traffic all night while I was trying to sleep. Basically, if you're looking for a cheap place to stay and aren't concerned with appearance, or a bunch of extras, this place checks all the important boxes, just understand what you're paying for. If you are unsure about going with a cheap place, this place might not be for you. Most of the places around it look nicer and you might not be happy with your decision. But all in all it's a nice place for the cost.

    The location is a major plus. The hotel is situated in a pleasant area with good walkability. There are nice spots nearby to stroll or go for a morning walk or jog. Directly across the road, there is a grocery and food option, which made things very convenient for quick meals or supplies. While the beach is not directly accessible by simply crossing the road, it is only a short walk away. There are well-kept public beach access points about five minutes on foot, along with clean and properly maintained public facilities along the route. This made beach visits easy without feeling crowded or inconvenient. Parking was straightforward and hassle-free. Self-parking was available, easy to access, and there were no complications with payment or check-in related to parking. Overall, this hotel offers excellent value for the price, a clean and comfortable room, and a convenient location. I would definitely consider staying here again.

    The property was not in good condition for upkeep. Room was smelly. Dirty washcloth and towel, when asked for clean washcloth, the guy at desk seemed annoyed and said he will see if he had any, he never get back to us. Came in about 9pm one night, homeless man was sleeping in the elevator. Leaving out at 4:15am, a man and woman was outside the door, the woman appeared to be high off drugs, she asked for food or money, when told we didn't have anything she kicked out suitcases away from the door. When tried to retrieve the suitcases she became aggressive, fighting and saying we are taking her suitcases. I was screaming for help, someone was downstairs in the garden area, he did not appear startled at all. Someone came out from their room and I believed they called the cops. No one was at the desk, the homeless and crackheads are all over the property. The police came late but we had lost so much time that we had to leave, we still missed our flight. Horrible Horrible place, very unsafe. The house keeper was helpful.

They had stains, in need of replacement. I went down to the office and informed them I could not stay there and checked out. The landscaping and parking lot needed to be redone.

    The proximity to the beach was all this place was good for. One of the beds wasn’t made when we got there, and the lady in the office refused to address the issue because she said there was no housekeeping staff on duty to finish preparing the room after we had already checked in. There was still some trash in the bathroom from the previous guests. We paid for the beach location, but that’s about all the value.

    A fridge and microwave that kept my food cold. And i was able to enjoy my meals most of the time in peace. Aside from the room smelling of damp wood. Maybe from the ac not being cleaned. And the mopping of the wooden floors. I declined the room service every day since i wanted to relax. Other than the first day they obliged to my request not to bother me. Until it was ready to check and they were just knocking and knocking on my door. So i decided to just check out. Even though i had late checkout. Overall... it was fairly quiet and decent.

    Unfortunately, I was catfished by a building. Do not trust these photos, they are completely inaccurate. -The hotel isn't even green haha! -The rooms are dingy. -There were loud sex workers/drunk scary men on site. -The first room had no working lights. -The second room I was switched to looked, ok enough? Until I found someone else's urine in the toilet. -Remotes had no backs. Batteries held in by tape. -The final straw was when a cockroach crawled onto the toilet, causing me to flee at 12:30am at night, 45 minutes after checkin in. Two cockroaches crawled into my belongings, which was unzipped for mere minutes and spread to my car. DO NOT STAY HERE

    The room was clean. Property is a bit old and run down. Traffic can be loud during the night. Parking in front can be challenging and the back lot really only fits small vehicles. Overall stay was ok.

    The room had a slight musty smell. The beds were extremely uncomfortable. Ashley at the front desk was very nice and helpful. The pool was a little dirty, but it’s across the street from the ocean so I didn’t mind.

    This hotel was typical for the area, but very old. Front desk was super friendly and helpful. The area felt a little unsafe, but the front desk staff was honest and returned a backpack to us that was accidently left in the lobby.

    The hotel looks extremely old and outdated. The rooms are in terrible condition and dirty. There was mold all over the restroom ceiling, dirty curtains, dirty surfaces, and dirty headboards on the bed.

    The hotel itself needs upgrade and needs to be cleaner. . I actually got my room changed the day after as let’s say the original room was very dirty/ roach. I tried to cancel but the manager was very nice and made accommodations in a bigger and cleaner room. Unfortunately, I will not stay there again.

    Everything was good. Only difficulty I had was trying to find a parking spot. They had parking behind the hotel, but someone decided to block the entry to the parking lot resulting in going all the way around to the exit part of the lot and reverse inward to be able to leave the correct way the following mornings

    This was an old hotel, and should not have been priced like a new one! Seriously outdated and ridiculous room with long bed and queen in same room! Staff was courteous and professional but would never stay there again… needs lotsa of updating!

    Favorite thing was the spacious room with two queen beds, great office space, nice bench area and night stands. Bathroom is small and the toilet handle is in a strange location and difficult to operate. Otherwise it's a nice place with friendly staff.

    Was charged for a night and never got to the hotel !! Late flight got us into Fort Lauderdale just before midnight. Tried to find a room for the night of Feb 14th but because of the time, the date changed to Feb 15th to Feb 16th. We were boarding a cruise ship Feb 15th so we just wanted a bed for the night of Feb 14 till morning of 15th. Once we noticed the date we had, we tried to cancel. No refund, no concession for the error. Charged full price for a room we never even saw!!
