The Belamar

Positiv: I really thought the room was lovely--large. Things seemed updated and clean. Bed was fairly comfortable--everything worked well. Staff was warm and friendly. Cookies in the afternoon provided at front desk.

Negativ: First bellman didn't tell us that we could stay parked in the Handicapped Parking spot in front. Second bellman did, but a $10.00 charge appeared on the final bill. Staff took it off when I explained. Requested 4 pillows and a view as our most important request. No view and only 2 pillows on bed when we arrived. Bellman brought two more pillows after a phone call. Artwork in hallway is a series of gigantic pictures of 1950 ish dolls---creepy. Including a 5X7 framed photo of one of the doll pictures on the desk in the room. i could see one, but entire hall lined with them.

Great Staff, Nice Rooms, Decent Everything Else

Positiv: I though the hotel's location was cool, off the main road but still tucked away and private. And the rooms were comfortable and newly renovated.

Negativ: I didn't like the rooms lay out. (No foyer or hallway to separate the room door from the sleeping area) You see the light leek in from under the door and the foot traffic in the hall feels very close as you lay in bed. Also the robes were only a large and fit me more like a child's robe than one for an adult.

A dated but overall nice hotel near the beach

Positiv: Friendly and helpful staff Clean Included wired and wireless Internet access (~8 Mbs up & down)

Negativ: Valet parking only ($15/day) Dated interiors Floors are creaky, can easily hear the guests walking around in room above

first floor but still the most quiet shower I have

Positiv: The room decor and space were both excellent. The bed felt firm in an inexpensive fashion, but was still reasonable in comfort. The real reason for the low rating in an otherwise four star establishment was the complete lack of hot water pressure at 1030 am on a weekday.

Positiv: Love the idea if complementary cookies. I didn't eat any but the idea is great. Thanks.

Negativ: They nickle and dime you on the breakfast. $9.99 for a bowl of oatmeal. Nooooo! So sad. $30.00 for the two of us to have eggs, sausage and potatoes. Really. And the OJ was a separate charge, ouch.

Ein schönes, sauberes Hotel, aber schlechtes Essen

Positiv: Wir waren begeistert von der Lage, der Sauberkeit, der Größe der Zimmer und dem Preis.

Negativ: Zimmerservice - das Frühstück war schrecklich! Wir aßen nicht alle dort, weil es ein pampiges nasses Spiegelei-Sandwich mit Brötchen, Aufschnitt und rohem Spinat gab. Ganz ehrlich, essen Sie dort nicht Frühstück. Die Dame an der Rezeption hat nicht Augenkontakt gemacht oder einmal gelächelt - ich weiß nicht warum, aber das hat mich gestört.
