1/10 Would love a refund
Booked a room for 4 people so got a sofa bed, there were no sheets or bedding for one of us. Reception said the cleaners were off that night and the next night or something so it meant there was nothing to use to keep warm at night. The mattress was stained. If the pictures are a 10/10 expect to see a 2/10 from the difference in photos to real life. Very disappointing as we payed for the 4th person. The don’t serve food, they had an event on in the restaurant so again there was no where to get food even though they tell you to go there. Staff great though but stay was extremely unpleasant

9/10 It is a very good hotel, I recommend it to everyone.
The location is excellent, next to the ocean. The food and the service were good in the restaurant. The view is amazing, the waitresses are beautiful and Francisco is the best!

It was clean and the beds were comfortable.

Complete disappointment!
We booked a 3-star hotel, but without our consent, we were automatically transferred to a completely different hotel. The new hotel was absolutely terrible. The rooms were unhygienic, the overall condition of the hotel was poor, and the so-called “included breakfast” was a joke. There were only a few slices of stale bread and tasteless items—nothing remotely acceptable.
We were a group of 4 and had booked two separate rooms. However, neither the quality of the rooms nor the service came close to 5-star standards. We ended up having breakfast outside the hotel every single day, which not only wasted our time but also caused unexpected additional expenses.
Our trust in this place has been completely shattered, and I strongly advise anyone considering staying here to think twice. Don’t waste your money or your vacation!

2/10 All the little things.
There is a lot of small things, but they start to add up. The hotel is remodeled, somewhat poorly. There is no coffee maker or microwave as advertised. The tv is not a smart tv so you are stuck with direct tv. The shower head was leaking badly, so bad pressure. The shower faucet was also broken the knob would do a full 360 so hard to turn off as well get the water temp right. Lastly the restaurant also serves as a night club, so expect it to be loud all weekend, of course it’s located on the water side, so if you want a good view you’ll be drowned out by the club. Lastly the club goers make it difficult to park, and club security questions you while you are trying to go to your room.

1/10 This is a old run down Best Western with a paint job. You can do better, much better.
Location was near our friends - we could walk

6/10 Wear flip-flops
The hotel was fine, but housekeeping needs to do a better job cleaning the floors. Walking around barefoot the evening we arrived, I was shocked by the footprints in the bathtub when I showered the next morning. Additionally, the parking fee was exorbitant and unnecessary.

10/10 Good Visit - Christy Made It Great!
OK - let's deal with the elephant in the living room 1st - this location was a Best Western for years. The current ownership - for whatever reason - decided to go independent. This is not the fault/decision of any one working at the Inn or Shuckers. Please do not ask for BW privileges - they just no longer exist at this location.
Now - my recent visit was for 2 nights. Upon checking in, there was 1 customer ahead of me so I got to hear the new details. When it was my turn a young lady named Christy was so delightful. After explaining that I've lived in the area for years and recently moved, she explained the changes and what was happening at the hotel. I could see painters onsite. My checkin was quick and Christy was awesome. *Be sure to take your car info in for checkin - verify the license tag info (taking a phone pic is the easiest way)
As some have noted, this is an older hotel but it has been maintained well. I had 2 double beds, the room was clean and smelled great. I had dinner that night at Shuckers and Holly was awesome.
My visit was short and I had to leave around 0200am a couple of days later. Again, Christy was at the desk, remembered my name and everything went smoothly.
Normally, I would say this stay ranked a 4 but Christy was so sweet and helpful that it deserved a 5. People make all the difference and she added a lot to my short stay.
Many THANKS to all the folks at the North Bay Inn and especially Christy. We'll be back to see you soon.
Cheers,
L&J

2/10 Terrible.
In partnering with Barry University this Hotel hosted several of their students as an alternate housing assignment. This hotel is highly unorganized, the housekeeping and MANAGER have nasty attitudes, and they abide by no schedule. They have made me and my roomate move twice—not even giving us a new room key until late Tuesday evening. The next day, Wednesday housekeeping is coming into our room unannounced. After that, Thursday—the manager slips a note under our door [attached below] stating that we are to move out today by 7pm. Reminder, you are housing STUDENTS. Therefore, as a result one would assume that you know we’re in classes all day during the week. Additionally, these are DORM ALTERNATIVE HOUSING—so we have fridges, additional microwaves and furniture we had in our dorm. We were not allotted a full 24 hours to move our stuff before being harassed—called three times EACH, slipped a note under our door, reminded everytime we pass the front desk to go to class (WITHOUT BEING ISSUED A KEY)—within less than a 24-48 hour period. I was hung up on, given attitude and rude responses as soon as I didn’t move upon recieving a room assignment the same day.

10/10 Great location and friendly staff
My favorite things about this hotel are its location (on the bay and near my son's former primary school where I walked him as a child, so it has a lot of memories) and Shucker's, my favorite restaurant for a great sandwich, fries and the like. The staff are excellent, remember me from when I lived in the area and from each subsequent visit since I have moved, and always have a friendly greeting. They're efficient, quick and always helpful. And last but not least, they have a great pool and a fantastic view. Don't let the iguanas freak you out, though. Hahaha!
