My wife and I planned to stay at the Homers Hotel for two days with a possibility of extending a third after reading such wonderful reviews of this hotel. Unfortunately, we checked out after the first night given how uncomfortable it was during our stay.
We paid for a top floor room with an ocean-side view. When we entered the room, it was very warm and humid. Initially, we thought that perhaps it was because the air-conditioning wasn't turned on. We later learned that A/C was turned off for the entire building due to the winter season.
Mind you, we would've understood had this been in the middle of the winter season (December-February), but it was already April and our room's average temperature that night was 77-79*F (26*C). (In-room climate control-A/C was listed in the description).
We contacted the front desk to voice our concerns. They informed us of the A/C situation and offered to give us a fan and to turn off the heat to our room. They even suggested that we open our windows to let cool air into the room.
After following their suggestions and even with the fan, my wife and I had a difficult time getting any sleep that night due to the trapped heat within the room. It was then we decided that we couldn't stay here for another night.
Although the staff was friendly and helped as best as they could and given the location was prime (great view of the bridge/beach), we could not bear another night and checked out the next morning to find better accommodations.
