When going to PCB I wouldn’t stay anywhere else! I have loved staying here for years and hope to for years to come. My grandkids absolutely love the resort!
The pictures of this hotel are outdated and very misleading. Acceptable for one night, but would have been awful to stay here multiple nights. Shower and bathroom were not clean. Tile floor in bedroom was dirty and turned the bottom of my feet black. The room smelled like wet mop and mold. However, AC was cold and the lodge was quiet. Parking was convenient. But extremely overpriced for what it is. I would compare this place to a run down Motel 6.
I genuinely enjoyed my stay. My wife and I planned a last minute trip to the beach for our anniversary, and we’re both so glad we picked here. It’s right across the street from the beach, there’s a great coffee shop right next door, there’s a great restaurant just two buildings down, and best part of all is that it’s affordable. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a weekend getaway. And Mrs. Niki was great

The staff was amazing! Rooms were very clean and the beds were super comfortable. The appearance online was a little misleading to the property currently. There is new management and they are working hard to make it better. Its in a great location and close to everything. The beach is a short walk across the street.

The staff was nice, and parking was adequate. The room was decent but not the cleanest. I would recommend going again, but be sure to bring essential amenities like tissue paper, clean towels, and face towels.
During my stay I enjoyed the short walk to the beach and my walks to and from waffle house was the highlight of vacation

Love the rooms cheap and convenient to beach. Stayed in room above pool. Only had a heater ac unit . Two bedrooms stayed a little cold.
My stay was amazing was a 100 dollar deposit but wasnt terrible the pool area was very clean and taking care of bed was comfy wasnt bad could literally walk to the beach best budget hotel ive been to in a while
The pictures are very deceiving. It is very rundown. We couldn’t use the pool as it was gross. The room was clean but very run down. The bed had a sheet and a blanket folded over. There is no door separating the bathroom from the sleeping area (very much a surprise). It was in a convenient location with plenty of restaurants and across the street from the beach. The staff (one person) was always kind and helpful. With even a little bit of work the whole outside could be so much more appealing-empty flower pots, weeds in the flower beds-most of the outdoor furniture was broken (get rid of all the outside furniture and unusable stuff in the courtyard). The motel lobby at one time was a deli and had a lot of unnecessary unused equipment in it. The out side of the motel needed cleaning up s well.
