    Tub pube. Was too tired/grossed out to document everything else.

    Literally the dirtiest hotel I've ever stayed in. The first room I was given smelled like fog pee and wet dog. There was a pube in the bathtub, mystery colors that were sprayed on the wall in what looked like a rainbow sneeze?, gunk on the chair, floors were dirty. Second room they moved me into also was gross. Dirty floors, the sheets were very obviously dirty on both beds. One had women's hairs in the sheets, the other bed had what appeared to be brown stains of unknown variety. For some reason sand sprays out of the bathroom faucets when turned on. Ants all over. The bathtub had them, and the bed with the ladies hair I had to sleep in due to exhaustion and not having enough energy to move to yet another dirty room or relocate for the night. The alarm clock is caked in what appears to be tears of gunk. The shower has black mold clearly visible behind the soap rack on the wall. Just read a review from 11 days ago that claims bed bugs and fleas were found and am absolutely freaked out, but it's 11pm and I've been driving all day, so preying to god I survive this craphole for one disgusting night. Keeping everything off the ground and going to garbage bag anything I've worn in here. The staff were pretty nice about moving me from the smelly room and into the dirty sheet room, for whatever that's worth. For $300 a night, you'd think they could bother to hire a housekeeper (I assume they don't have any from what I've seen). If on the off chance you consider staying here, whatever you do, id reconsider. It's filthy, the whole place is falling apart. The luggage rack is dirty and covered in rust, very tetanus shot-worthy if you happen to touch the rusted 3/4 of the cart. Floors are the grossest, oldest, outdoor looking carpet I've ever seen in a hotel. Whoever owns this dump should be ashamed of themselves for letting people stay in these disgusting conditions. If my car wasn't so full, I'd leave immediately and go sleep in that. Oh also, the new room has a mystery noise that hums loudly on and off all night.

    Loved this inn! Staff was friendly and knowledgeable about local restaurants and attractions. The view from our second floor room was absolutely breath taking. Walking to the beach was so wonderful that we went every morning after breafast. Since we went at the end of March the waves crashed loud enough to hear from our room all night. Being pet friendly was a must for us and our dog had just as much fun as we did! The restaurant and gift shop just across the road was an amazing find for good food, amazing homemade fudge and delightfully sweet gifts for family and friends. We will definitely be going back to this inn whenever we travel to the coast.

    Great quality for your money. The rooms are updated and are all facing the ocean. The beds were comfortable and clean not to mention you can see the gorgeous view whilst lying in bed. The bathroom was nicely updated though there was a problem with both the shower and the sink draining properly. There was a small kitchenette with a fridge, sink, coffee machine, and microwave which made it easy to have some meals in the room. A pool and spa are also available at the hotel though we did not try it, it appears clean and is centrally located between the two main buildings. The ocean is about a 300 ft walk from the hotel which is private access for hotel quests only. The hotel is also within walking distance to some local eateries and the pier. Side note: If you book directly through the hotel it is about $60-80 cheaper than if you were to go through booking.com. They are offering a spring promotion if you book two or more nights through them they add a discount.

    Being frequent travelers to Brookings (3-4 times a year) we can say that Beachfront Inn offers some of the finest views in Brookings, and its walkability to the marina and amenities is perfect. In fact, everything you need is within walking distance and I have found that we rarely need to leave the harbor. Check in is always easy, with the staff being consistently pleasant and I am always amazed at how reasonable the rates are given the quality of the rooms and the magnificent views. However it should be noted that the grounds suffer from differed maintenance and neglect, which is challenging in a coastal environment, however it's still important. And the elevators have been inoperable for at least 2 years. This is not a problem for us, but for others who are not physically capable, it will present challenges in getting your luggage up 3 flights of stairs.

    Highly recommend this place for a short stay! Beautiful views, clean rooms, lovely breakfast!! All day tea/coffee for customers. Love that they have a clean drinking water filling station. Staff is very welcoming and friendly.

    Let me be the first to say that I normally don't review anything other than restaurant. I travel so much for work and seeing so many hotels and usually it's just a place to rest my head. Take a shower and get ready for work. So this review is kind of a first for me. When you're driving up the 101 you do see a few billboard signs for beachfront inn. I grew up on the Pacific Northwest coast and I've always loved the beach. I was excited that this Inn is right on the beach, and every room has a view of the ocean. we pulled into town about 10 o'clock in the morning. Check-in isn't until three but I decided to try my luck and see if I could get into my hotel room. It must've been my lucky day because they had a room ready for me. I went upstairs and dropped off my luggage. Only downside is that they did not have a working elevator at the time. But it was OK since I was only on the second floor I think I can handle the work out. opened up my door to a spectacular stunning view of the Pacific Ocean. First thing I did was that my luggage down and went out to the balcony to enjoy my view. I didn't get much time to enjoy my room as I had to go to work. By the time I got back to my room after work, it was about 30 minutes to sunset. I decided to take off and walk out to their private entrance to the beach and get some pictures of the waves and the sunset. The next morning I woke up and I had to travel a few hours to get to the airport as I was flying home that day. When I fly home, I normally don't enjoy the fitness center but when I looked into it, it was a very lovely set up with nice gym equipment. Would definitely try the gym next time I'm there. I did grab a little breakfast before I headed out. Normally not a big one since I don't know where rest ups are and I didn't want to be stuck without going to the bathroom. I split my biscuit in half so I only had half of a biscuit with some sausage gravy and a cup of orange juice. They had eggs, bacon, sausage, and a variety of toast and muffins and bagels. They have a few juices some cereals and oatmeal. If I was staying another night, I probably would've enjoyed breakfast a little more but I hate to have a full stomach driving and then getting on a plane. If you were looking for a relaxing, cute little beach getaway bookings would be the place. They also had great fresh seafood right from the harbor. Just down the street about a 10 minute walk or a two minute drive.

    Husband found this place from online. It was one of the highest rated hotels in Brookings and it had the ocean view.    The ocean view itself was still awesome with a lot of driftwood.   Two queen size beds.  All the lights we need. Very nice room, newly remodeled, comfortable.  We have a veranda with a couple chairs for sipping your morning cup of Joe (or hot cocoa).  You can almost touch the ocean, and hear it roar.  Reminds me of Hawaii! Negatives: 1. The sun is on our right, and we have to walk to the beach to find the sunset. 2. Another negative: if you have heavy suitcases, still on the main floor, there's no elevator. 3. Sink drain slowly!

    The hotel is old and in need of serious repair

    There are three separate buildings. We stayed in the south end building and there was an elevator. I don't know about the other buildings.

    What time is check in/out? 3pm & 11am?

Each day while we were away the room was freshened up. Coffee, instant ceral were provided in the room as well as cream for the coffee. Dishes and glassware were available to use. The room was well supplied with the things we needed. The steps and railings could use a bit of updating for safety and the stairs leading towards the beach area were in much need of repair, to the point that it was not a good idea to venture too far down that path as the lower steps dropped down further than the rest. The handrail at the very bottom was frail and really should not be allowed public access without being made much sturdier. When parking, it required you to back all the way out to the roadway. No viable place to turn around once you drove all the way in. Would we stay here again? Yes we would. I felt it was a good value for the price paid. You could literally hear and see the ocean right from the front room. It is a place that provides a lot of peace and quiet. Probably not the best for a young and noisy partying crowd.

A few well-chosen, tasteful pieces of wall art could go a long way to making the room feel cozier and more inviting.
