The Surfbreak Hotel Reviews

“Friendly staff and clean rooms . Good location, close to be restaurants and beach.”

“I want to start off by saying how amazing the front desk woman was. She was so sweet to us and brought us towels since there weren’t any & she helped fix our door code since that didn’t work. As far as the room, the shower area doesn’t have a door, so water comes out of the shower onto the floor & wall. The wall next to the shower had visible black mold. Toilet paper holder was falling out of the wall. Ice bucket was dirty and smelled & leaked, we bought our own ice to keep in the freezer. Breakfast was across the street at SC Cafe, we got Gabis Burritos with chorizo and they were phenomenal. Sunday was way too busy to even order from them, so that $15 voucher went without use. Parking was good if you got back to the hotel before 6. Air conditioning was great, as was the bed. Wear and tear on the floor and tables, but that’s normal. Sounded like someone was drilling late at night but couldn’t tell if that was in the hotel or not. Overall it was okay, we would stay again solely for the great customer service and burritos.”

“I stayed in this hotel when it first opened and remembered it being comfortable and well kept. Stayed here last week and was very disappointed with the cleanliness or lack of in the room – a wad of hair (not ours) was behind the sink faucet and the bathroom floor planks were damaged and popping out where it would’ve been very easy to cut your toe. Towel quality a lot less than it used to be. Beds were still comfortable and check-in was easy, but I hope their maintenance improves.”
