What Guests Are Saying

“Usually don’t complain but I paid to upgrade to a large oceanfront room for a special weekend and was disappointed that 2 out of 3 overhead lights weren’t working when we walked in , the toilet roll holder was literally falling off the wall, the closet doors would barely slide open due to all the rust, and the A/C unit would keep running even after being turned off…down to 63 degrees!…if you tried to run the heat, it would run and run and go the other way… we’d have to keep balcony door open to keep from freezing or melting. The in room fridge froze all our drinks (no control inside). Wonder when maintenance last checked this room! Very stingy on room towels…had to request every day. We emptied our own trash. Beware of extra charges ..$10 per tiny beach towel if you don’t bring it back to the lobby and sign it back in the book…parking is $15/day, beach chair rentals available through a third party, and make sure you return wristbands when you check out or those are $10 each (even though we were never told to return them). The hot tub has tons of MOLD around the edges…gross. For $500+/night? . Beds are average., room was clean. The upside is the beach is beautiful and you can walk right out, pool is (slightly) heated, and there are a lot of great restaurants in the area. Most of the staff are very helpful. The tiki bar is nice outside, with a great bartender!! Breakfast is just ok… Highly recommend going to Sunliner Diner! Won’t stay here again for that price…but Orange Beach is amazing. (And construction is going on next door so don’t recommend that side for a room).” — Liz S., 3 stars

“We just finished up a 3 night stay here. While the hotel was great the workers not so much. On our travels back home I got a notification that we were charged an additional $250. I called to inquire and the girl answered the phone, without asking my name or room number, said it was because we were smoking in the room. Initially I was shocked and said there must be a mistake because we do not smoke but she gave me attitude and argued with me telling me they have the pictures to prove it. We actually turned around to head back to the hotel because again we do not smoke and we absolutely wanted an explanation and to see these pictures of the alleged cigarette and vape in the trash can. She was rude and condescending. I get a phone call a bit later from the hotel from a different worker apologizing that they had made a mistake… it was in fact a different room ( after I clarified with the original worker multiple times my room number and there has to be a mix up) and that they had refunded the charge. Great. Yes mistakes happen. How they handle the situation is more the problem. Now no one will give me the girls name so I can file a complaint. She has a very distinct voice and I had already spoken to her during our stay.. black girl with lighter skin, nose ring and long curly hair with caramel highlights. I feel certain corporate can figure out who she is.” — Brittany, 1 star
