The hotel itself is nice enough and appeared to be one of the best accomodations in Seaside. Our oceanfront room was very nice and spacious with a full kitchenette, couch, ceiling fan, fireplace, and a large balcony. However, the rooms are VERY OVERPRICED. For what we paid we could have stayed at an all-inclusive in the Caribbean, instead of freezing under the dreary clouds. It's a real shame that such a nice beach has such miserable weather.
The restaurant was also overpriced, and the food wasn't very good. The lasagna was so spicy that I couldn't eat it. After a couple of bites it was burning a hole through my stomach. They advertise that kids eat free, but don't tell you that there's a limit of 2 kids.
It also would have been much nicer if the pool and restaurant were overlooking the beach, instead of the parking lot. The parking spaces were also very cramped.
I was also dismayed that they didn't have a faucet to rinse off your feet after walking on the beach.
The Oregon Coast is a beautiful area and this was our second trip there. We had stayed at this property 5 years ago when it was a Quality Inn I believe and was just as expensive. However, having been there in both the summer and fall I don't think it ever gets warm enough to truly enjoy the beach.
