ONLINE TRAVEL WEBSITE "Good Buy" was not a good buy

Hotel was not a brand name and stayed there because of the $50 discount being offered. It's debatable whether the hotel is a good buy at even the discounted rate. Hotel IS on the beach. Room smelled musty. Room was generally clean, if austere. Bills itself as a "resort", but on a Saturday night in July the Tiki bar outside was shuttered and in need of repair, the pool may have been clean, but the stains suggest poor maintenance. The hot tub had a large amount of sand in it. Wi-Fi was free in public areas, but there was limited functional seating to use that in the lobby and not much privacy. No internet connection available in the room at all, cost or no. Bed was adequate, but nothing spectacular for comfort. "Resort fee" was minimal, and with unlimited DVD's it could be a decent value, but only one DVD allowed out at a time, and many of the most popular items were hard to come buy. Other than that and easy beach access there was little "resort"-like to mention. It was basically an overpriced aging off-brand beach hotel. For over a hundred bucks you should be able to expect more. Hilton is only * more per night at the regular room rate and is much newer with likely much better amenities and facilities. Lack of light in parking area wasn't great either.

This was the first time that we stayed at this hotel and for the money that I paid it wasn't worth it. The room was big and we had a ocean front room but the room smelled like mold really bad and were not very clean. We will not be staying there again.
Enjoyed my stay

My husband and I went for our anniversary. It's a nice long walk from the hotel to the pier. The free breakfast was not that good. We had a nice ocean view from our room. overall it was a nice stay I would go back.
Not what we wanted but Better than Expected.

My husband and I wanted to getaway to Daytona for a day and relax. We made reservations at the Hilton Daytona Beach Resort, silly me I chose the wrong dates and they had a big cheerleading convention in town. This was a sell out all across the board. We called travel website and they made reservations at the Daytona Beach Oceanside Inn for us.
My husband and I like nice hotels so we were a little apprehensive about staying at a hotel we had not researched online or heard of. In driving up the outside appearance made us a little nervous, but once inside the room we relaxed. We were able to get a very nice oceanview efficiency for much less and it was beautiful.
The front desk representatives and general manager were the most helpful people I have ever met. We made the reservations on the way to the hotel so it had not reached their database yet. They went to through the "backdoor" of travel website to find out new reservation and quickly put us in a room even though they were booked. They were wonderful!
We would definitely return......The only downside is that it is an older hotel so it does need an update in the common areas like the front lobby, hallways (dimmed lighting), and faster elevators....other than that it was clean and comfortable. Thank you for making a visit that was turning out to be a disaster a beautiful time.
good hotel
