Sorry you felt a bit left out - that is not our intention at all! The room you booked "Economy Room, 1 King Bed, Annex Building (Ocean Breeze)" have all the same amenities as our other rooms just not the view. Next time take a look at our Oceanfront or Ocean Spray rooms! Safe Travels

I was directed to an another property when I booked it I was under the impression I was at one hotel. They charged me the difference which I thought was not fair since I was not aware there was another building.

We are 1 hotel with several buildings - I apologize for the confusion as the room you booked did say: Economy Room, 1 King Bed, Annex Building (Ocean Breeze). I did work with you and discounted the difference with you for the upgrade to our Oceanfront room (65%). Safe travels in the future

The property was very nice! The views of the ocean were incredible! We had a great weekend. The road construction, on the other hand, gets 1/2 star or if 10... The town needs guidance from the hotel staff for signage and directions...

I would love to share them with my team so we can ensure that we address them moving forward - I will apologize for any confusion with the room type you booked through Expedia and for the fact that since we were sold out we were unable to move you to the room type that you had thought you booked.

When we arrived to check in the office was locked but there was a # on the door and I got an immediate call back letting me know where my key for the room could be found, for the rest of my stay I didn't see any hotel staff, my husband brought the key to the office when we departed. I did get an email saying I was being charged $250 for smoking in the room which I didn't do but my clothes did smell like smoke from the party I was at on Thanksgiving and my husband smoked in his truck and then came in to go to use the restroom prior to our departure. I didn't sign in or sign anything at the hotel, I had the map and key in my envelope and noone requested that I sign anything when we left. I was disappointed that there was no comforter on the bed and seemed like only two sheets which made me cold.

Thank you for taking the time to send us your feedback. We attempted to contact you several times regarding the change in lobby hours for the holiday by phone, email and through Expedia. Sorry about any confusion regarding the sign in sheet in your packet - it was with the map and our policy sheet. As for the smoking charge there is a reason hotels charge for guests smoking in the room as it is not fair to the incoming reservations to have to deal with the lingering smell. You were not actually charged for this but we were required to notify you.

We stayed overnight at Drifting Sands“The Annex building” $200 a night (with fees) in November. We expected a basic motel, however it was not the room pictured. The room we were in was worn (also some mold in bathroom) and was very noisy. We could hear everything next door and above us, which included dogs barking both next to us and above us. While I think it is great that they allow dogs, perhaps they should try to separate those staying without dogs from those with, especially because the walls are so thin.

Hotel needs improvement.
The hotel was very clean, but the room needed some work. Whoever painted the room did a horrible job. The outlets didn’t look safe. The bed and pillows were very comfortable. The outside of the hotel room needs work. The screens on the windows were all broken. The room had a small table but there was a microwave on top of it which took all the space. The main lobby was very clean. They had various of snacks and drinks available to purchase. I am not sure if I would stay there again.

Thank you for taking the time to send us your feedback! As you were in our economy annex building I would suggest you experience one of the rooms in our main buildings- either the Ocean Spray or for the best experience the Ocean Front with a panoramic view of the beach and ocean right from your balcony. We have been and will continue to work on upgrading and improving our rooms and property altogether.

The room was dirty old and falling apart my foot almost went through the floor by toilet get into shower. Shower body disgusting. We chose this hotel as we stay in main building once before and it was okay. This was not rooms had windows and doors left open all night.
