rooms were indeed modern. the halls were filthy. we saw some large stains on them. There were bird feathers and pieces of plastic eating utensils in the hottub. We turned in our blanket at the outset, as there was a huge red stain on it.
I rented two rooms for myself and some family members. My sister rented ended up with room 205 and told me there was no hot water and dismal water pressure in the shower. Desk staff acknowledged the problem had been persisting for weeks. Im sure if the owner had lost hot water at his house, the ordeal wouldnt last weeks. I asked the clerk to have the owner call me toward resolving the complaint I had about the shower. the clert avoided my gaze as he told me he would put a note for that, which pretty much confirmed in advance that he knew id never get that call. I didnt, hence the review. Oceanic has a good location, and places with good locations get customers regardless of whether or not they retain them. they wont be retaining us.

We stayed here from Aug 30-Sept 1 2024. Absolutely an amazing stay. I would say this hotel is not one you stay in if you’re there for a whole week and expect to live in your room but for us it was everything we needed at a fantastic price. The room was clean, comfortable, updated and all around great. The staff, let me tell You how wonderful they are, we needed to check in later they said “okay we got it” no issues, our room was cleaned and refreshed within an hour of us being out the door and back from the store. We asked for a later check out and they had no issue giving us an extra hour. They were beyond accommodating when we needed assistance the day we checked out and even offered to let us use the accommodations they provide for guests. We will be coming back and staying here again.

Location of this hotel is AWESOME! It's out the door, across the street, and you are on the boardwalk and direct access to the beach. We booked directly through the hotel, not expedia, booking, etc. We got a "retro" room. Right away, we could not get into our room. A staff member came upstairs to assist us, and as it turns out, the door opens fine if you throw your shoulder into it when you want to get in. The room was Very small, as was the bathroom, and it was obvious that the toilet had not been cleaned and there was still a small amount of coffee in the coffee pot from one of the previous guests. Carpets are dirty, bed was comfy enough. The one thing I missed on the website is that the pool is open to the public. And a lot of public was there. Just any Joe Schmo off of the street can walk in and use the pool. Not the best of situations. The balcony gives a great ocean view, but it's about 2 ft wide, and when the air conditioner runs, it throws so much heat outside that it's uncomfortable. The patio chairs can fit comfortably sideways. I guess to summarize, make sure you don't get a "Retro" room, supposedly the newer rooms are nice, I didn't honestly see one firsthand tho so beware. Parking is limited but they did accomodate us. I always leave a tip for the cleaning person, but I didn't this time and I only felt a little guilty. I guess my tip to the cleaning person is "clean the toilet and the coffee pots too".

The rooms are upgraded, bed was comfy, mini fridge, and coffeemaker (with the flat pods). My only complaint would be a 10am check out which they should inform you when checking in. Bar downstairs is opened until 3am. Room nights were pricey but location was perfect. Front desk staff were very pleasant.

a great place, a great location and lots of night life right down stairs from the hotel. The remodeled room are excellent. You can walk the area at night and feel safe to do it. Some of the Rooms have a great view of the area during the day and at night .I've stay two years in a row during the Playero Festival on the beach. Will be back next year to do it al oer again.

Clean hotel, friendly staff, arrived early staff let us park car there while we walked boardwalk and called to let us check in early. Clean pool closes early at 8pm wish it'd stay open till at least 10pm during summer. Some updates done to bathroom and bedroom. Kitchen not updated. Small college dorm size fridge but worked for us. Would definitely stay here again. Across street from beach, boardwalk and convention center.

The Oceanic is a wonderful atmosphere and the hotel is constantly doing upgrades each off season to make a better experience. I stayed in one of the cottages again this year. The rooms look great and the accommodations were good. The staff was very pleasant to deal with and the rooms were clean.

The filthiest place I ever stayed. I booked through hotel.Combe cause of the reviews. I got 2 rooms for myself and granddaughter who brought her infant baby. The rooms are not what you see on line. They are old & dated, looks like a reformatory. The carpet was so dirty and stained like poop stains, dirty towels. Also ants in the bed and thousands of them in my bathroom. The day clerk women was rude and screamed in my face when I complained about the filthiness of the rooms. The only employee there that tried to help was a young kid on the night shift. They hotel allows smoking on the balcony’s and stairwells. I had an old corona bottle with cigarette butts filled on my balcony from previous guests. Do not stay here, they also allow everyone to use the pool as long as they are drinking at the bar. I can’t stress enough not to stay here. I am turning them into the board of health on Monday morning 7/17/2023. This place should be shutdown. I have pictures and videos of the filth and the red ants in my bed and bathroom. I have a video of the 100’s of ants in my bathroom. By this time I broke down an cried. Also where shoulder pads to protect your should when your pushing to get the door to open.

Newly remodeled and clean bathrooms, good view of Ocean from balcony, great central location, convenient parking, allowed golf cart parking and charging, pool was refreshing and the swim up tiki bar was the cherry ontop of our stay. Staff was friendly and helpful but not invasive. Plenty of towels were provided daily without asking. Overall, I highly reccomend this hotel and we look forward to our stay next year. To be fair, I will mention that the AC in the room could have definitely been cooler, the bathroom could have been a little larger, and it was a noisy area but that's to be expected given the location. These things were only slight inconveniences and nothing that would deter me from booking another stay here.
Few things that need to be fixed before renting the room!!!!
We stayed Saturday until Monday July 1-3 am in room 400. Door needs to be completely replaced we had problems opening the door the key got stuck in front of the door in the hallway they have small ramp also need to be replaced!! Window above ac also needs to be fixed does not close. The room had no smoke detector??

Great time as usual! Everything was clean and we were surprised our room had been remodeled. Staff is always friendly and attentive. I have been visiting the Oceanic for at least 20 years and have never stayed anywhere else since!

Room was beautifully updated. Staff was friendly & accommodating. Pool and tiki bar are nice. Housekeeping came by to replace towels. I was able to park in the lot for the duration of our stay. Room was a bit tight but fine for 2 of us.

Stayed in a cottage. The beds were very comfy, the room was clean. Housekeeping came around everyday to see if we needed anything. Check in was very simple as well. I would definitely stay here again.

We love this place. Have stayed here many times. Every time it gets better with the remodel. But one thing I hate is the hot tub is only hot from like 2pm -6pm. Leave it on let us enjoy 1 of the reasons I loved this place in the past. I am was here since Sunday and it’s the same everyday.
