Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The office guy was super nice and accommodating the first day. However, when we followed up with him on an issue on out second day, he was a totally different person and very rude. The place was cheap (150/night) so I didn’t have high expectations but it was really very run down and smelled like nasty cleaning supplies - probably to cover up all the cigarette smoke smells. Would recommend for a college kid looking to get away with friends. Not a place for younger kids.

Main Sail is a main stay
Our room was spacious and comfortable. While we mostly used it for sleep and getting ready for our next adventure, it was accommodating. We were able to leave our beach caddy under the stairs, with no incident. Staff & guests were friendly. Across from ‘The Flamingo’, a modern coffee & breakfast spot. Nice stay overall.

Perfect location, quiet at night, and the suite with separate bedroom was great for our family of 4! Clean pool and nice staff. Comfy beds. Could use a little updating and better room darkening curtains but otherwise no complaints!

Fantastic location and walkable everywhere. The customer service was 5 stars. I went to the office an hour before they opened for some extra coffee and when i realized they were closed went back to my room. Three minutes later i get a call from Joe asking what i needed and he brought me some!

This property was in a great location, very walkable to the beach and all the great bars and restaurants (close to The Goat, Wallys, L Street, Boardwalk, etc). The staff was absolutely amazing and very friendly throughout our entire stay. Highly recommend this hotel. No extras for the price, but overall clean and comfortable. I would definitely stay here again.

The young man who checked us in was wonderfull. Helped carry my friends heavy bag up the stairs. Sliding glass door was very hard to open, AC difficult to turn on, bathroom door didn't latch/lock and housekeeping didn't clean coffee maker after last guest, still used coffee filter in container. Great loaction, close to everything. Someone should be at desk later into night, guest were lighting firecrackers outside after 11pm and running up and down deck.
