Quick Beach Get-away

The hotel and especially my room was very clean and well maintained. It is an older building and some details make it apparent, but cute ( short round toilet, built in cabinets). The king bed provided a good sleep but the sofa bed was noisy. The kitchen had everything we needed, plus more. We had an oceanfront room and the street was very noisy but we should have expected it. Definitely worth price.

Great Location, great view of the ocean from balcony. The wait staff were super friendly, the rooms were nice, and beds are comfy. the only down fall was the smell of the halls as the carpets are filled with dander and smell incredibly bad and intensifies with the heat. Remove the carpets please for your next renovation:)

Staff was friendly and good location close to beach and across from Waterman's Grill which has good food and drinks. It's an older building with some upgrades. The rooms are small. The carpet in the hallways smell bad which carries into the room. The jets in the hot tub didn't work. Had 'adult hours' for the pool which was not communicated and was inconvenient since we have kids. Elevator was slow and not working at times so had to take stairs. In the end, average stay but wouldn't recommend.

Cute Family Getaway

my family and I enjoyed our stay. We only experienced a slight issue with the elevator taking forever, but that was to be expected due to the high volume in summer guests. The other issue was our balcony door did not close all the way and had a crack in it, we were on the 6th floor, so didn't press the issue. Room was clean and comfortable. Front desk staff was amazing and friendly. The pizza shop below us was amazing and had great wings! Walk to beach was convenient and easy. 8/10

I liked the location, but I was disappointed that the property never responded to our complaint about not having a hair dryer and shampoo in the room. The pool was too open to the lobby and the street; we prefer more privacy for the pool.

Getaway without the amenities

The pool is in the lobby of the building! Whoever markets Ocean Key's space did a good job deceiving people of the "great" pool in the picture. The lobby furniture and room furniture need to be updated. There seems to be mold in the bathroom (at least in our room). The parking garage is NOT amenable for large vehicles; there are poles in the way! The location was good to the beach and restaurants. The pool was closed during the adult swimming time due to painting and cleaning the pool- pool maintenance- could this not have been done during the overnight hours since people are there for vacation. The jets in the hot tub were not working. I didn't like having to get a change of linen (towels, sheets, etc.) for our room, but that may be a way of providing a service with limited employees.

Pool is essentially in the lobby so you are greeted with heat and humidity, parking garage spots are so tight you only open doors on one side. Rooms looked to be partially updated but were still overall just kind of grimy, we paid extra for ocean front, view was great, but Atlantic Ave is full of screaming, revving engines and just beyond loud until 2-3a at least. Windows are not double pane, so even from 7th floor, it was like they were on our balcony. Main door to our room you can see out around the edges and hear everything. Staff was great. But for what we paid for this room, very disappointed and won’t be back.

If your looking for a place crash and you plan on spending all of your time either in the beach or out doing stuff, this place is fine. They don't offer regular house keeping and if you want to new towels, you have to exchange them yourself on the 4th floor. I didn't have any issues with my room, but I overheard others complaining about room and maintenance issues. The elevators aren't programmed correctly so they will stop to pick up people who want to go down but the elevator continues to go up and vice versa. The parking garage is tight with giant pillars in the middle of the driving lane. If you have a large pickup or SUV, you might struggle to find parking. The beach is a short walk across the street and there are plenty of bars and restaurants within walking distance of the hotel.

The overall upkeep, cleanliness and maintenance is lacking. My room needed a deep cleaning. The bathroom had a rusty drop ceiling with mismatched tiles. The lock beeped constantly for no reason. The toilet seat was chipped and deteriorating. The floor was dirty. The pillows were flat. I have lots of pictures.

Excellent customer check-in. People seem to genuinely enjoy working here - and for a holiday weekend that's saying something! Parking was easy. Even though our room wasn't ready when we arrived (early - like 12 noon - I get it), the front office lady checked us in, welcomed us, gave us our parking pass, explained that we could access all the amenities (exercise room, pool, etc.). I like that the pool has designated adult swim times (2 hours in morning; 2 hours in evening), so it's not overrun with unsupervised kids all day. The jacuzzi/hot tub area was a little small (ie, six adults max - and that was elbow-to-elbow). Location is not directly on Boardwalk, but we knew that beforehand. We Website provided accurate information. We had an ocean view balcony and were able to see the beach, boardwalk, Waterman's seafood restaurant. Even saw the sunrise from the balcony. Room was very clean and well furnished. Lots of shelves and cubbies and even a rack for shoes in the closet. We didn't use the kitchenette, but it was well-stocked and included dish soap, sponge, dishwashing pod. There is a linen exchange service on the 4th floor during business hours if you need to swap out towels. They also advertised a complimentary laundry service on the 4th floor, but we did not use it. Ice machine was full loaded, though a bit far from our room. The Roma Pizza restaurant in the lobby was great - good food, wine, beer, friendly service, plenty of clean seating indoors and out.
