We really enjoyed our stay at the Seaway Inn. Tim at the front desk was super helpful in making sure we were comfortable. The room was super clean and free parking was awesome! So close to everything. We will definitely be staying there again :)

Great location. Old hotel that has been modernized and upgraded. Really comfortable. Fun wallpaper in the bathroom. Easy to walk anywhere by the pier.

The surrounding. The position close to the ocean.

2/10 Poor

Not worth the money.

A dog in the room next to us, was barking all night & kept us up, Paper thin walls. Felt like the dog was in our room. Horrible customer service . No one on staff from midnight to 8 am! Hotel seems unfinished and under construction
Lisa, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Disappointed

I've waited almost a week to leave this review to make sure I was being objective. Overall, our stay was ok. There were small annoyances like a missing TV remote, very cramped parking lot, and really bright lighting coming in the bedroom all night long. My daughter found hair in her bed, which isn’t unheard of in a hotel room, but not enjoyable to find. My disappointment really came when we were on our way home and received a text that we were being charged $20 for a stained towel. No one in my family knows anything about a stained towel, but also it seems very petty when we just spent barely shy of $800 for 2 nights at a very old motel with no amenities (no pool, spa, laundry, gym, breakfast). Admittedly we were paying spring break inflated prices, but still very expensive for what you get. Personally, I think it wasn't a wise business decision to charge for the towel because it just left a poor taste in our mouths about the accommodations in general, we weren't being nit picky until they were nit picking a towel. I'll also add, the towels are far from anything special, small and scratchy, I could've replaced it for maybe $8.
