Hotels near Cox Science Center and Aquarium

"All good "

"This motel (doesn’t deserve to be called a hotel) is an absolute atrocity. The surrounding area is dirty, noisy, and completely run down, making you feel Iike you’ll get robbed at any moment at night. The property itself has to be at least 40 years old, and the photos online are clearly outdated and misleading. The lobby is deceptive because it looks and smells decent only because they drown it in air freshener, but the second you step into the elevator, you’re hit with a musty basement smell that carries throughout the entire building. Everything else is in terrible condition. Walls look like they have 10+ layers of paint with gashes and dents, peeling trim, dirty hallways, etc. Multiple things in the room were broken. The bathroom had an old metal tub painted over with visible corrosion and rusting fixtures. My room had a patched hole in the wall that wasn’t painted, a broken nightstand, door trim falling off, a 1-inch gap in the door letting in noise and light, and carpet lifting off the floor. Amenities are basically nonexistent. There’s a tiny snack stand that doesn’t even have chips. The hot water went out, so I couldn’t even shower before checkout. I paid $814 for two nights, and this place is worth maybe $50. There is no way the reviews for this place are real. No reasonable person would have good things to say about this place. I will NEVER stay at another Delta brand motel. Shame on Marriott and Hotels.com for carrying this misleading brand, I want a refund."

"Staff. Clean room room upkerp"

"There are no shops within walking distance, but everything is a short drive away. The kitchen is brand new and beautiful but there are no pots, dishes, cutlery or serving pieces in the cabinets or drawers. We did use the fridge and microwave, but it would have been nice to have plates and cutlery. The woman at the desk, Shay, was so nice and helpful to everyone. "

"Great pool area!"

"Na"

"The hotel is very clean and cozy, located 10 minutes from the beach, with a reasonable price. I was feeling so comfortable and highly recommend staying. Frontdesk staff were polite at all time and were doing their best to leave a great memory from your staying experience. The only thing that was not clearly mentioned in Expedia is that the parking is not free, and you need to pay $5/night (at the time of this post). Also, Expedia charged me $24 for breakfast, and I was able to select only one item from the menu. Then they brought the bill whcih was only $19, and I paid through the voucher. I am not sure why I was overcharged. The other wonder was that the staff were expecting tip for serving breakfast, which was the first time I was ever seeing such expectation in a hotel. I am wondering if they are hotel staff and their salary is not dependent on tips they receive, why would they expect tips? Breakfast is a regular item for all hotels and not a luxury, in my opinion."

"The reception looks better than the rooms. They still have those cheap shower curtains rather than glass. The beds/rooms look clean. Breakfast was ok. Be mindful of extra random charges. Check your bill. "

"Nice motel. There is a pharmacy and food nearby."
