We've visited Postcard Inn several times over the last 10 years and we were floored by the condition of the rooms this time. There was nothing on the walls, no decor or color anywhere in the room, just stark white walls and sheets. It felt like a solitary confinement hospital room. The tub was chipped and rusted, the toiletries were mix-and-matched random brands with some on the sink and some in the tub where they'd broken off the wall holder, the small fridge in the corner was beat up and old, and the lone, tiny wooden stool wasn't even big enough to put a suitcase on. The bed springs screeched so loud every time we moved at all on the bed. The window "view" was of a huge shipping container in the parking lot. When we asked for a different room, we were told they all looked like this because the hotel is renovating. I can't believe they would allow the rooms to be used as is, and should absolutely have a disclaimer on their site that what you see and what you get are nothing alike. In addition, their site should acknowledge that this is a party "Spring Break" style hotel, with loud techno music at the tiki hut all day and a hundred people dancing and drinking, not the vibe you'd want if your goal was to relax by the pool. All the staff we encountered were warm and friendly, so our issues are not with staff but with the actual condition of the rooms and the fact they are charging obscene rates for what is not above a Motel 6 room.

Have been going to PCI for 10 years and it was great. They have changed the bar -tiki bar venue it is now a club with loud thumping DJ music from 2-10pm. Ot is constant and so loud. The property is overrun with non guests. Drunk people everywhere in hotel amenities. No security. The smell of pot is constant. Did not feel safe. It’s sad. Many quests felt the same way.

Outside areas were beautiful and beach property is very central . The rooms are bare bones and need to be updated. You pay for the location not the room. Staff was friendly.

Definitely caters to a younger crowd. Amenities are more about activities, than luxury. Rooms are super basic, but the common spaces have plenty to offer. Be prepared to hike to your room, especially if on the 2nd floor. Extremely dog-friendly though (provided that your dog will pee on astroturf!)

Great location right on the beach, with many restaurants, 7-11, and shops within walking distance. The decor was cute and there were some nice amenities like the cafe for morning coffee, pool table, pool, etc. There were times when it was quite a party spot, but it wasn't noisy from the room at night.

Good location, very mediocre hotel
Pros: The location on the beach can’t be beat. The games in the lobby are nice for families. The breakfast at the restaurant was very good. Cons: The condition of the rooms was a joke. Broken dresser drawers were hanging ajar. The AC did not work properly. The service was indifferent. The walls were paper thin and we were woken multiple times throughout each night of our stay by noise from neighboring rooms.
