Seaside Inn & Suites

Seaside Inn & Suites

10/10 Excellent
"I enjoyed the stay. The property had convenience stores that were within walking distance, 10 mins and less. Plenty of parking was available and accessible. Staff was kind and made the process of checking in fast and simple. The room that was reserved was very spacious. The only thing that I disliked was that one bed had sheets that were stained red which wasn't found until it was time to sleep. As well as a pillowcase that was stained. Overall though the stay was great and I would return in the future :)."
