Dolphin Oceanfront Motel

Dolphin Oceanfront Motel

6/10 Okay
"We stayed 3 nights, the office is only open 9am-8pm, so plan on checking in before 8pm. We had to take our own garbage out, as we never saw a cleaning person. We needed new towels but were usually up and gone before the office opened and back after it was closed. The room itself was ok, the bed was slanted so it felt like we were sleeping downhill. The door does not seal well so as others opened and closed their door, ours rattled and lots of light came in around it. Parking was fine, beach was steps away."
