Garden City Inn

Garden City Inn

8/10 Good
"We stayed in a room with a small kitchen. The room had two queen beds and a couch. The beds were very comfortable and the room darkening shades were effective. The kitchen had very few utensils but luckily for me my son lives nearby so they brought over whatever we needed. It’s as close as I’ve ever stayed to the beach. We opened the sliding glass door and there was the inground pool and a little further, the ocean. My 11 year old and 8 year old granddaughters loved it. It’s a very basic older building and room, but that was okay with me, because I didn’t have to worry that the girls accidentally breaking anything valuable. I’d stay there again."

"Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Overall, the house was as described. I thought all the bedrooms had a bathroom but two bedrooms shared a bathroom. The dishwasher was broken and leaked. There were ants in one of the bathrooms and the kitchen. Things that would have been nice: beach chairs, towels, and newer pans. The pools were a great feature after a hot beach day. The open living spaces were very nice for large groups to gather."
