Beachliner Hotel

Great proximity to beach and on the cute little Main Street. Furniture and deco’s lovely. Great breakfast and amazing coffee.

No elevator, but we were able to walk up to 4th floor.

Closeness to the beach

There wasn’t an ice machine

Loved the neighborhood and the location. We happened to be there the night the Knicks were playing and the house across the street set up a projector outside and we were able to watch it from the Beachliner's front porch. 10/10 experience, great food within walking distance. We enjoyed Victorian Grill.

The only complaint (and it is tiny) is that our room's TV had zero volume and the screen was really magenta. Honestly, we turned it off and ended up doing other things so it didn't matter that much.

The woman running the hostel was very friendly. The location of the hotel is excellent and very convenient to have parking on the street just outside. It was convenient to have free breakfast in the hotel, although this was quite basic.

There was no one to receive us at check in, so we had to wait until another guest let us in and then call up a phone number. The room was very cold and we had to use plug-in heaters to warm ourselves up, which tripped the electrics a number of times. The WiFi didn't work so we had to tether from our mobile phones. On the second night of our stay, we were woken up at 4am by a fire alarm. This then went off but some 20mins later we were woken up by the police knocking at our door telling us to evacuate. We had to sit in our car for a bit before being allowed back inside. The building was given the all clear so we returned to our room. Another 20mins later we were woken by a knock and told the owner wanted to speak to us in reception as the electricity was down. I went down and then was told I could go back up. Some 20mins after that we were woken again by knocking outside our door and hearing the owner speak to someone in the neighbouring room. All in all we were disturbed 4 times in the same night and had a very poor night's sleep. I appreciate that this was an exceptional situation but it was managed poorly by the team. There was also no acknowledgement of this this next morning. I would have expected at least an apology but also an offer for a refund for the disturbed night.
