A comfortable stay

I spent one night at the Ocean Pacific Lodge and found it to be very friendly and comfortable. It feels like a budget hotel with some nice amenities, like a coffee maker and a microwave and a refrigerator. The person at the front desk was lovely. The bed was adequate, the pillows were a little hard, the towels were soft and clean, the toiletries provided were very nice. I thought the price was excellent for what I got, and I would definitely stay here again.

Otherwise everything was great. I do wish the rooms had carpet.

Deluxe room is huge and dog friendly.

The place is older. Stayed there since they were dog friendly . Parking is tight but no height ceiling. No smart TVs. Carpeted floors in deluxe room. Pool isn't heated, one out of two of the hot tubs were working. No breakfast. I removed the bath mat in tub and the was hair all over it. All in all not a bad trip. If you're on a budget this place isn't bad.

I liked that it was close to everything but the walls are super thin, I could hear every conversation. Also if you need to use the washer and dryer they cost 5 dollars each and the dryer doesn't dry. I washed 5 articles of clothing they were soaking wet after 45 minutes in the dryer.
