Overall stay was okay. The lady who checked me in was really nice. But our room was a little dirty, bathroom doorknob was broken, stains on blankets/pillows, loose hair on bedding and the room had an old smell to it.

I sent them a message saying that my arrival was going to be late and to please hold my reserved room. When I arrived, the person in the front office never came out to help me. I went through a horrible experience and They sold my room to someone else and they still charged my bank card for my reservation. So they are not a acceptable business to the hotel rental service support and very unprofessional owners. They are very good on scamming people for their Money.

We had a nice stay we spent the whole day at the campground with family. Nice to come to a clean room and bed to sleep in every night. Our family will make this a yearly trip we will continue to stay at Oceani Inn. Close to everything if needed
