I loved how close it was to the beach! The room itself was spacious, clean, and comfortable. It was easy to check in and out. The staff was very kind and friendly as well.

The only thing I did not love was having to check in at the sister property and then the pool amenities were at a third location. The parking at this location is very limited, but you are allowed to park at all of the sister locations. Now let me clarify all locations were in walking distance and it was my fault for not reading the details carefully. I just personally prefer having all amenities at the same place.

Incredible Location! Cosy little room, lovely bedding and had a fridge and cooktop. Checking staff lovely and friendly …..did I mention Location….!

Parking was tricky, the booking site did not mention that u need to go to another property for checkin, or for the pool. No bathmat or hand towels , the room was hard to darken due to lights outside and having shutters. Carpet needs a clean.

The location is right off the beach so access is great. Limited parking but we had a good parking spot. Public bathroom across the street but not a problem. Room was quiet even though there was a lot of pedestrian traffic. Property was well maintained.

The room was large enough to have more than one chair. One chair for two people was a little inconvenient.

Location, Location!! Steps from the beach, restaurants, shops, and strand. Room was spacious with a separte living room and kitchen with refrigerator but could use an update in the furniture. Parking is available for quests which is a plus.

Update furniture in living area. A desk would have helped.

Easy check in and check out. Location of hotel and room size.

I didn’t really dislike anything. It is an older property so the rooms are little dated and if you need certain things like ice or to go to the pool you have to go to the sister hotels. But! The hotels are all walking distance so it’s not bad at all.

Excellent location, right on the beach and close to all the action. Easy to walk around, no need to rent a car. Close to SeaWorld, mall and everything else you'll want to do. The hotel was nice and we felt the value was excellent. Room was clean and tidy, bed was comfy and our needs were met. For an oceanfront hotel you can't beat the price.

Would be nice if this was a full service hotel - valet, room service, restaurant on site - but for the price you cannot beat it. Just know this is a motel/hotel that's really just a place to sleep and get ready for your day.

Great location, friendly staff, pretty rooms, great bathrooms, kitchenette were nice

TV cable box did not work (or maybe there just wasn't any cable?), window in bathroom did not stay open, PB Surf check in office not mentioned at all in confirmation email (through booking.com), but there was a sign once you get to Diamond Head Inn.

Perfect location - very close to the ocean shore and nice beach. A lot of nice restaurants around the hotel. Comfortable bed, small kitchenette in the room.

Office in the hotel was closed and it was little confusing where should we check in.

The location was great by the beach.

There are only a few parking spots. I was unable to park near the hotel. I see the other two locations are the same. I would recommend getting more designated spot for the hotel.
