"Breakfast was probably my least favorite. The eggs were cold and of course they didn’t have any flavor and I thought that they had hot oatmeal cereal, but on closer examination, it wasn’t that I think it was potatoes or something. Not appetizing at all. But I grabbed an orange, an apple and some yogurt and a stick of cheese and that was fine. Whatever"

"Room is very clean with clean towels too. Lot of parking space and very convenient. Only that our room is right next to the entrance door and stairs, so every-time we hear steps and doors. Definitely if there’s a chance of coming back to visit, i would stay again here."

"The hotel was nice and had beautiful views of the ocean. The room was much bigger than I expected, which was a pleasant surprise! It was within walking distance of local restaurants, and the beach was just a short walk away, making it easy to get down to the sand and enjoy the ocean. Overall, it was a great location!"

Ocean Pacific Lodge

Ocean Pacific Lodge

8/10 Good
"Pretty convenient location and a decent price compared with the astronomical price of many other options. Adequate parking and walkable distance to the downtown and plenty of dining options. I would stay again but would make sure my room was not immediately adjacent to the ice machine ( foot traffic of people getting ice) and the pool ( kids birthday parties etc not great if you’re trying to rest). Air conditioning was a bit loud tbh at least in my room - but on the plus side their wasn’t any drama at night or noise and I think they keep a close eye on the place- it’s a motor court arrangement with rooms facing out so could be vulnerable to randoms wandering through but there was no problem."
