Not what we reserved!
We reserved a king bed room through Hotels.com, and after check-in discovered that it was a queen bed, and it was very uncomfortable! We have had better luck with comfort and expectations when we reserved directly through the Gearhart by the Sea desk and website. Won't be using Hotels.com again!

Everything we hoped for and more.
A perfect spot for our big family with lots of cozy space. A short walk to the beach and beautiful veiw. About a mile from downtown seaside so the beach was less crowded but still super close to great activities. The only thing I wondered was why I hadnt stayed there in the past.

Great location. Our condo was clean and spacious. Also very dated and shabby. Furniture was especially run down. Kitchen was grubby. Seems to be high variability in quality of accommodations that are priced equally at this location.

This condo needs improvements
Great location, but this place needs to be updated. The Kitchen utensils/pans were old and mismatched. Paper thin walls, not good if there are noisy kids next door. We were in unit #612, 1st floor which has a partial ocean view from the balcony. Shaggy carpet was damp and soapy from cleaning when we checked in. Bath Towels were not matching. Partial ocean view from balcony.

The room was clean and ready before check in time. I loved the close beach access! It is very close to Seaside which is where we spent the day. My only complaint was there were no towels in the pool room. We would happily stay here again.

It was so nice to have a fully equiped condo for my son's wedding weekend. The weather was beautiful as was the ocean view. Parking was easy. I liked the fact that there were no additional 'hidden' charges after I booked! Staff was friendly and responsive to needs. We'll be back!

ROOM 605 All furniture & lamps were awful, Start with the mattress. from couches horrible & uncomfortable. The only good chairs were bar stools or dining chairs. Because the electric range was unplugged had to move refridg out of way to fix that one. Open sliding door to balcony and screen slider flips out- needs total replacement/frame is toast.The most ridiculous utensils ever tried to use- beyond spartan! ! bathroom ok. AVOID THIS SECTION !

The property location is fantastic- minutes walk to the beach. The actual condo was comfortable, however a little run down. Our check in experience was excellent, the on-property office personnel were very helpful and accommodating from start to finish. Gearhart is very quiet and close to more bustling towns like Seaside and Cannon beach for those who want a quiet place to rest between sightseeing.

DID NOT WANT TO LEAVE
Not knowing what to expect I packed some basic things only to arrive and find out it was fully furnished, even with some spices, games, movies...everything. I was told I would have ocean view, but my room was on the first floor with limited views which did not diminish the sound or the ability to glimpse the ocean. I mean I wish I could sit and look at the water all night, but we were on the beach so much it more than made up for it. That and the beds were very comfortable. LOVED IT!!!

Front desk lady was very kind, cheerful, helpful and accommodating. Nice staff! Needed to wash some dishes - that were put away as clean - before using them. Food bits on them that didn’t seem like they’d gone through the dishwasher. . But a generally clean feel to the rooms! I will come back again. A good room for the price.
