"The Ocean Surf was a nice hotel. The pools are wonderful. We loved having the beach right across the street from us. Very close to restaurants and shops. The staff that checked us in was very informative, kind and welcoming. However, on the second day of our stay we asked for more towels and were told they would be brought to our room and never arrived. Our room floor definitely was not swept well, it was pretty sandy. Overall our stay a 3.5/5"

"The hotel staff were pleasant, helpful, and welcoming. The lobby is well maintained. The room we stayed in was spacious, clean and had more toiletries than I expected. It is about 2-miles from the main intersection that has shops, restaurants and the beach, but the Ogunquit Trolley stops right in front of the hotel. The trolley runs from 9AM-9PM from 7/1 - 10/15 (cash only). For anyone considering this hotel, I would strongly recommend it."
