The location is excellent . The bathroom fan did not work . There was one sink outside the bathroom which was for both bathroom and kitchen use . The a/c was VERY NOISY and needs servicing . The window blind did not work so we had to cover the window with towels at night .

Great location and decent A/C is the only positive. The motel is falling apart. Pool is leaking into the parking lot. Mattress was very hard and old. Thin old bedding and crappy pillows. No towel rack or toilet paper holder in the bathroom due to being broken. Bathroom door barely closed. No ice dispenser available or beverage machine. Several broken appliances littered on the property. Front check-in office is hoarded with supplies, very uninviting. $230 for 1 night, 2 adults & 2 kids.

This was our first time staying at Golden Sands! Doug was there to welcome us when we checked in. He made us feel like family the second we entered the office. He was kind and had tons of suggestions for restaurants. He was personable and chatted with my six-year-old, who immediately became a big fan of his :). He was helpful and attentive our entire trip. Thank you so much, Doug! I also left my hair straightener behind, and Doug went above and beyond to get it and mail it to me on his own time. The Hotel is old….. Like every other hotel around there, however, it’s extremely clean and kept up-to-date. We had a very nice room with air-conditioning and a kitchenette. There is an outdoor swimming pool that was a bit brisk but very much needed as it was around 36° when we were there. Golden Sands is now going to be our family’s go to hotel! Thank you Doug for providing a level of customer service that went above and beyond!

The ceiling fan in our room was falling down and unsafe to use which was unfortunate because it was hot weather and would’ve been useful. As well, the safety sign/firemap or whatever it is right beside the door was shattered glass and half missing - could’ve easily sliced a finger - needs to be replaced asap. Everything else was great and beds were comfy!

Great location as close to the beach and restaurants. Could be cleaner a specially outdoor, to enjoy seating outside. Housekeepers were in rush to prep the suite, no toilet paper and forget collecting garbage in the kitchen. Otherwise they have amazing staff in the office and excellent customer service over the phone. I wish they had individual table outside of the suite or more seating “patio” outside. With full parking it is hard to find any space. I would come back again
