Staff is attentive. My "ocean-view" room had a huge air conditioning unit outside the window. Did not see any ocean. Heat is not controlled by customer...how inane is that? No handicap accessibilty, and no indications of same. Very , very harmful for handcap customers. No vending machines, no ice. TV so small, cannot see clearly from bed. Not a good experience.

Ocean Cliff is a beautiful hotel sitting atop a cliff away from the hustle and bustle of the city. The room was spacious and bed comfortable with a mini fridge, coffee maker and safe. We loved the restaurant and the views.

This is a historic building so your room may not be perfect. We appreciated how this made the hotel unique. Our room was on the third floor. We had windows on both sides of the room giving us sea, sunrise, and sunset views which was so unexpected! Our room had two closets with built-in drawers and shelves. Breakfast was sufficient for continental (bagels, cereal, yogurt, fresh fruit, granola, orange juice, coffee). The housekeeping services were great; our room was so carefully tended when we returned. The views from this property are spectacular.

Sad excuse for a hotel

Would not recommend, hotel , for a restaurant that closes very early you can’t get room service or a snack . Rooms very poorly decorated. No where to hang clothes etc . It’s at best a bed and breakfast. A shame because the place as huge potential
