There were 2 nice things about this property, the ocean view and the staff was friendly. Great place for people who don't care about cleanliness.

No, the room wasn't "spotless" it could have used a little more attention. We stayed over a week and not one time could we tell anyone had been in to check nor clean the room. We went out and bought hand towels & the like for our use. I gave you five stars because the staff, when there, was great. Always smiling and helpful about what to find..

This is an older property that needs some attention. However, the room was clean and the beds comfortable. If you are looking for a reasonable price and basic accommodations, you won't be disappointed
The room was perfect for what we needed. Property needs some updates and could have been cleaner. We would stay again! Just bring some Clorox wipes and some dish soap! I'm not to proud to tidy up to my likings!

For the money and availability for an ocean front room, It was worth it. The hotel was old and outdated but we were there for the Beach not the Ritz-Carlton. There's smoking going on around the property but it wasn't too overwhelming. The room was clean and comfortable.
The Blockade Runner is close to non-beach activities, restaurants and bars and grocery stores, etc. I like how accessible the beach is. The onsite Bar & Grill was nice. What I didn’t like, the place is rundown, it is in need of a serious upgrade especially the bathroom!! Needs a new tub and shower head - it takes forever to get shampoo out of your hair because the shower head is so bad!!! The carpet is nasty and it is old and threadbare. There is no daily cleaning service, if you run out of toilet paper you have to go to the front desk to ask for more, same for bath towels, etc.
if you’re looking for a fairly low cost beach hotel then The Blockade Runner will fill that bill but just know that the place is old and has never had any updates to the rooms!!

Enjoyed our stay; property needs updating & some repairs. Door stuck terribly.
Room was very clean!
Need an early key drop off box or the ability to leave keys in room for early checkin. Office/lobby wasn’t unlocked at the advertised 8:30 time on sign so we dropped ours at Elliott’s!

This is a Mom & Pop place, restaurant on site, open 7am-7pm. Beachfront ! Reasonable price. A little "old school" beach place but as Senior Adults that's what we like! Door is heavy tho and a bit hard to open. Would stay again!

Hotel/Motel or Holiday Inn.
At first glance you realize that this is an aged place with working outdated appliances and amenities. The television had a broken leg that was taped up (I placed a coffee K cup under the leg to level the TV. I loved the proximity to the Beachfront, however my wife would have preferred a higher view of the beach. Breakfast was VERY good and I think was reasonably priced. I would stay there again because the price was right. The staff was warm and friendly, and Parking was pretty good. It’s an older place…and I’m an old soul!

The property received a lower overall and cleanliness rating because of the age of the property. It is very apparent that the cleaning and general upkeep is being done, but with the age and the proximity to the beach I'm sure they are doing all they can with what they have. The restaurant was great for dinner and breakfast, the front desk staff and the cleaning staff were all great. I will definitely return.

Pool was very dirty. Tables are rusted through. Karaoke is annoying if you actually wanted to take an afternoon nap to recharge for the evening. Rooms are dated but tolerable. Pillows are lacking. Wasn't disappointed bus not impressed. Check in was easy.

We had a great week here July 2025. Nice that there’s a cafe restaurant in the building in case you don’t feel like leaving for food. Not the most perfect, nice place but… the price reflects that. We came for the beach not to sit in our room, and this is right on the beach. Understand that all of the rentals down here are a constant revolving door with little or no time to clean perfectly or make repairs between guests during the busy season no matter where you stay. Take that into consideration before expecting perfection. This place is awesome and the staff are as well. Have a problem or question and they are on top of it. Ive stayed in much more expensive places in the area, and had issues that went unresolved for our entire stay. They went above and beyond to make sure we enjoyed our stay here. We will be back for sure.
