"We paid for the accommodation; the reservation stated that four people could stay there, but upon arrival, the receptionist told us that only two people were allowed per room. In the end, we had to pay an extra $85 a day because the reservation couldn't be cancelled. They completely take advantage of the situation; I will never stay there again. Be careful."

Top Glen Arbor Hotel Reviews

Coastal Inn

Coastal Inn

8/10 Good
"I gave this property four stars because there were a couple of issues that affected our stay. As soon as we walked in, we noticed that the carpet in the entrance was not clean and had a noticeable dirty stain. Additionally, the other bed was very noisy. The mattress appears to be a coil mattress, and it made a lot of noise whenever the person sleeping on it turned over. This made it difficult to sleep comfortably. Overall, the property was nice, but these issues should be addressed to improve the experience for future guests."
