I had a disappointing experience at Ocean View Beach Hotel, which rents rooms in three-hour blocks and requires a US$50 cash-only deposit. At check-in, I was shocked to learn they wouldn’t accept a credit card for the deposit, leading to a frustrating process involving calls to the manager, who insisted on cash. This made check-in unnecessarily complicated and unpleasant. I paid the deposit but noted I’d be leaving early for a flight.
The hotel’s downtown location felt unsafe, with drug addicts and touts lingering nearby, making nighttime walks uncomfortable. Contrary to its name, my room had no ocean view, only a wall and stairwell, and was not located on the beach but rather in the middle of a municipal car park. On a positive note, the room was very clean. At 6 a.m., after inspecting the sheets, towels, minibar, and beds, the night watchman pulled my cash deposit from his pocket and returned it to me. As we left early, we found our car locked in the municipal parking area and had to navigate a confusing exit through an entrance gate as the other carpark gates were locked or blocked.
Due to the cash-only deposit policy, unsafe location, and short-term rental practice, I would not stay here again.
