This hotel was very nice and a bargain price. The hotel staff was extremely friendly and helpful including letting me check in very early. My room was large including a small kitchen area, separate living space and bedroom. All rooms had an excellent view of the ocean. The bed was quite comfortable. There is plenty of eateries and Pier Park... More

The room was clean and very accomodating. Great location and very fair price for room. Stayed here during bike week 2013 and it was more than good for what we needed. Clean room and fair price at great location.

I'm staying at the beachcomber as I type. I am so disappointed. We had to cover the couch with a sheet because it was so gross with numerous unknown stains. I just watched a cockroach crawl across the floor and I would leave this second if I could. There's little parking and the cleaning staff walked right into our room... More

Hotel is really comfortable and has a great location-only a mile from Pier Park. You can tell they just upgraded the rooms. New TV and bed, which was really comfortable. All the rooms are right on the water with a beautiful view-totally unobstructed. Great sunsets on the balcony! I really liked the double suite because you get a room with... More

We got a good price on this hotel and it is right on the beach in Panama City. Each room faces the gulf. It is more like a suite. It has a livingroom with a TV, a small kitchen area, a bathroom and then a sleeping area. The rooms all come with 2 double beds...which was okay. The sofa also... More

It was the only Hotel on our Roadtrip from LAX to MIA without free internet. Prices start at 11$ per day. Luckely there is a Mc Donalds and a Holiday Inn next doir with free WiFi. The guest laundry is very old and in a bad shape. The pool is quite small. Nice Beach.

Stayed 18-22 April 2013. Very nice hotel on the Beach for a budget price. Room was in good condition and staff was very friendly. This hotel is close to Pier Park mall and nice ocean view rooms, I thought it was good area. Room is equiped with small stove/oven, micro wave, coffee pot, & toaster.

Nice room with sea view and ..... a jacuzz! A microwave, a refrigerator and a coffee maker. At a perfect location. Every room has a sea view. The only downside we think was breakfast, it is really poor. The hotel is close to a supermarket and restaurants.

Stayed 4-12-13 Weekend. When I arrived I was a little disappointed as the rooms are much smaller than the web site would have you to believe. The Hotel is farther from the attractions than advertised, 6 miles, doesn't seem like a long way, but it is compared to hotels that are actually in the middle of everything, 6 miles can... More

We apologize for any miscommunication during your stay. Our policy is to allow guests a complimentary late check-out at noon as long as there are no arrivals scheduled for that day. After noon, we charge a nominal fee of $50 to secure the room until 5pm. More

If your on a budget this is a nice well-maintained hotel. The room we were in opened from the street directly into 2 double beds and a flat screen television on top of a dresser. The furniture was a white-wash beach type furniture in good condition. The room opened in through another door to the kitchenette with a medium-sized refrigerator,... More
