Beachside Inn

Beachside Inn

8/10 Good
"The place was nice.. Location was really close to most things. You could walk to the beach-across the street… The only bummer is a eye contact stuck to the night stand.. They serve you the typical motel breakfast .. So I gave it 4 stars just cause I wish they spent a minute making sure every spot in the room was clean. Didn’t like the contact. I saved a long time for this trip… they should see small details…"
