Top Gulf District Hotel Reviews

Beachcomber Beachfront Hotel, a By The Sea Resort

4/10 Poor

"The hot tub didn’t even work when we were there. Got a room with a kitchen- there were no utensils for the kitten for us to use. Our key card kept not working even though it was never touching a phone and sat in my wallet the entire time, this happened 3 times. Our toilet stopped working and they staffs only form of “helping” was “come get a plunger” for the money you pay you’d expect a better experience."
