We loved how close to the beach it was, and how quiet the area was from the busy part of boardwalk.

Area felt safe. Pretty quiet. Saw a cockroach in the office when we were checking in. Room seemed pretty clean. Bathroom is pretty old. Office is not necessarily open during office hours. Great area near beach and boardwalk so it was worth it for the night.

Once checked in never saw any staff again granted it was a Sunday night into Monday stay. Came in on motorcycles 4 us took 3 rooms parked all the bikes in one parking spot and believe we were charge $10 a bike but can’t confrim due to staff leaving after we checked in and got on receipt. Went to get receipt and office was locked up literally 10 minutes after I got into room

Kitchen sink did not work as the drain came loose. Not a big deal, things happen. The mgr calked me and texted me 2x and said the plumber would be there to fix the problem but then we found out they expected us to wait for him and let him in. We are on vacation!! We regused. We said we wouldnt use the sink no big deal. Then the plumber showed up at 830 at night wanting to come in the room, did i say he showed up with a strange looking partner? After 6 calls and repeated texts about this drain problem. We are on vacation.. not our problem!! I had to block them so they would leave us alone. We refused to let anyone in the room at 830 pm at night. Ridiculous!

They had an air conditioner in the window which is fine but blew out the cold air right on the bed. Also could hardly turn the shower on need to replace the faucet. Also no room to get ready in the bathroom no plug in there to do your hair and no counter in there either. Also the blinds in the bedroom didn’t cover the windows let lots of bright lights in which shined on your face. Probably won’t stay there again.

Clean, Cozy, 30 steps to the beach.
All stuff we encountered (Mary and Sussy) were friendly and very helpful. This is small beach hotel/motel. It has everything you need to stay few days. We needed to extend our stay due to the business circumstances and we had no problem with that as well. They have limited parking space that has to be reserved ahead and paid extra $10 a day. Hotels.com didn’t mention this, but it was not a big deal.

I don’t stay here for amenities. The best amenity is the staff who is kind, caring, and they know you’re just going to the beach and the restaurants and surfing and for icecream. Dolphin never disappoints. It’s not luxury but it’s so very solid and that’s because of the people that run it. Thank you once again.
