Nothing to detract from the overall experience. The staff were all exceedingly friendly and willing to help. Everyone I interacted with was smiling and cheerful. They have free cookies at the front desk in the afternoon, so when you come in after working all day you can have a cookie! Shout out to Melody working the morning breakfast and the front desk simultaneously. She was waaaay too perky so early in the morning! The hotel feels very modern. It seems to be very well kept. All the fixtures, furnishings, elevators, carpets, etc. were in good repair. The lobby and common areas were spotlessly clean. The door locks and keys worked well. Minimal misfires with the key cards. My room was fresh smelling and also very clean. The AC worked very well. Towels and linens were fresh and decent. One interesting thing if you are a member of BW Rewards. If you are willing to forego the housekeeping service, they will credit your account with 500 bonus points for each day you do. There was a card to hang on the door to let the maids know. Needless to say, this has likely become my go-to hotel when I am in the area again. I am a fan!

The breakfast was warm and fresh as it was constantly restocked. I was impressed because I usually eat breakfast a bit late and the breakfast items are usually out by the time I go eat but this time to my pleasant surprise it was all stocked in this hotel.

Let me start this review by saying I wish I could give 2 and a half stars. This place is not bad…read more Not by a long shot. But it's not nice either. The rate is great. You can't argue with a beachfront hotel at under 100 bucks a night. However, you are getting what you pay for. We had a regular room. It was tiny. But, since we weren't there long, that was fine. The place was clean, except for the ever present sand on the tile floor. I wish they had put little mats next to the bed to let you clean your feet off before getting in. We had to use one of the hand towels for that job. The room looked tired. Not dirty, not vandalized, just tired. The missing picture over the bed was obvious. The rust spots on the fridge and bathtub made me sad. The water damage on the ceiling in the bathroom was just kind of a bummer. The A/C worked great. That was a blessing in the 100+ weather. Now, the water in this area is rather corrosive. I have had friends living in the area tell me that you can't keep your fixtures looking good because of it. Seems there is sulfur in the stuff. Ick. It is smelly. Not the hotel's fault that the water is bad, but the corrosion on the fixtures continues the sad feeling. So, all in all, if you really are only planning on sleeping in the room and otherwise staying out in the beaches and fishing spots, go for it. If you're looking for something nice that you might want to spend time in with your honey, maybe you should keep looking.

I know it's unnecessary, but I'm just going to second Lisa C.'s review of the place. It wasn't…read morehorrible, it was just run down. I think if I were staying more than a night the sand would get on my nerves (but what the heck can you do about sand when you're parking lot is literally the beach?), and so would the smell (and taste) of the water. For $80.00 a night, I want a little more. This place was worth about $50-60.00 per night... (though really, I want to say $49.95 - but I'm TRYING to be generous because I really WANT to like Cedar Sands). The proprietor was nice enough and apologetic for an incident the night we stayed involving a rude (probably drunk) guest and the Surfside Police Dept. (We missed this entirely, didn't even know it went down, but it was nice that he was concerned). This is one of those places to go if you're a total beach bum (as much as a I love the beach, I'm not) who is only interested in surfing, surf fishing, and being as close to beach as humanly possible without having to rent an entire beach house. I don't think we'll go back. I think we'll look for other options. But if push came to shove, I would stay here again if I had no better choice. Especially if the rates were more in line with the property.

We took a last minute trip to Texas just to get away from the Boot for a couple of days and so we…read moreended up getting a room here. We arrived around 11:30PM. The man that checked us in was nice and noticed that I walked with a cane and so he made me aware that there were no rooms on the first floor. The looks are of a 2 star motel. You can see that they have done some updates. It was clean. The best part about the room was most definitely the bed. That mattress was so comfortable and after a 4 1/2 hour drive, it was much needed. We about 5 mins over our checkout time when the cleaning ladies started knocking. It was would have been nice if they would have left us last on the list to give us that time to clear out. I do appreciate that one of the cleaning ladies, helped me downstairs with my luggage. We would go back again.

Run don't walk, as fast as you can from this dump. You have been warned!!!!! Whoever gave this…read moreplace 5 stars is a liar!! This place is filthy and disgusting and I'm being VERY generous because there is no expletive strong enough to describe this God forsaken dump! Let's start with the pros since there are only 2. The first is that they send you an email to pre-check in. This made it super convenient so that when I arrived I literally told the desk clerk my name and she handed me my room key. About a 30 second pleasant interaction. The second is that the front desk employees are nice. Not very helpful, but nice. The lady who works in the daytime spends half her time at the desk and the other half of her time doing laundry. So she is overworked and doing the jobs of two people so you have to follow the sign to the laundry room if you need something. I requested and received an email confirmation that I could have late check out at 1 PM. There was a pounding on the door at 10:17 AM. It was a non-English speaking woman telling me check out was at 11:00 AM. I explained to her that I was approved for 1 PM check out, but she didn't understand English. There was another guy with her who told her "uno". She looks like he just said the most shocking information she's ever received in her life. And then she kept saying something in Spanish and reiterated the checkout time is at 11:00 AM. Even if my late checkout hadn't been approved (which it was) why are you pounding on my door at 10:17 AM after you've been paid in full?? Ok on to the really bad and gross. Buckle up buttercups because you are in for a treat! This place is ghetto. Don't expect a good night sleep. The first night I stayed awake because I woke up to a roach crawling in my room and on the second night there was a very loud domestic disturbance involving people running back-and-forth across the top breezeway down onto the main level, screaming and yelling to which police responded and it took about an hour to fully resolve . So I was given room 114. This room has no window to the front of the room so you can't look outside into the parking lot or walkway. The only window is to a fenced walkway behind the building where they dump random broken fixtures and items. It's an eyesore. They did a total bait and switch on me. Please do not think for one second the photos on the websites are of rooms you will get. Oh no no honey you are getting a musty smelling roach and insect infested dirty, dark, and depressing room that should be condemned. The pillows are tiny but the sheets, that's where I found strands of hair and very questionable stains that look like menstruation and/or urination stains. Hair in the sink, on the floor, and everywhere. Because I didn't observe these things until about 11:30 PM (I checked in late and had to set everything up for me to get ready for a wedding the next day). I went to the front desk to see what could be done and was offered, "bug spray" LOL Are you kidding? I told the guy I don't even know where the roaches and insects are coming from to know where to spray and I don't want to inhale "bug spray" in my room. He said it's because it's so hot here and they "spray every 15 days" but I'm calling BS! I live where temps reach triple digits and my pest control comes every other month and guess what? I don't have roaches or insects in or around my house. He offered no refund no new room just told me that's all he could do. Since it was the middle of the night and they already charged my card, my only option is to sleep on the second set of stained sheets he gave me or in my car, where there are definitely no insects. Also the TV keeps freezing so don't plan on watching any shows because it's choppy and glitchy just like the Internet service. Lastly, I had to run the water for about 15 mins before it was warm enough to get in it. The water pressure is so low that it's basically like a sprinkle and a trickle. Please do not let the pictures on the website or fake positive reviews fool you. I have attached photos so you can see for yourself what I booked vs what I got. Stay far far away from here!

Hmmmmm.....where do I begin... the bathroom....pubic hair on the toilet, the bathroom was…read moreabsolutely filthy. I don't think the bathroom floor had ever been clean. Hair behind the door and on the door. Shower head was terrible, the cover over the drain was loose and of course the shower curtain was stained. At 11:30PM a fire alarm went off, or some sort of alarm in the hallway. After a sleepless night, my husband went down to get breakfast, he passed trash outside the room down from us...two or three bags just hanging out in the hallway. But he really enjoyed seeing the large box of Coco Pebbles cereal by the elevators spilling over the trashcan. I received an email to check out online...the internet was so bad I could not download the app. I told the desk clerk, she argued with me and said oh we don't do online check out. So why the HELL did I receive that email!! NEVER, NEVER again will we stay at this hellhole!!!

Any property right on the beach is going to show some wear and tear thanks to the salt and moisture in the air, but I was impressed with how well-maintained this place was, all things considered. You truly can't beat the price--$70 to $80 a night, and you get a little kitchenette, which is super convenient. On the downside, our fridge didn't work very well, and the freezer wasn't much colder than the fridge. That said, the beds were clean and surprisingly comfortable, with fresh sheets and towels. The overall cleanliness exceeded my expectations for a budget-friendly motel. The staff was kind and accommodating, which made a big difference. Also, it's pet-friendly, which we appreciated, with a very reasonable pet fee (either $15 or $50 depending on the situation--and you may be able to get that $50 back). All in all, I would definitely stay here again. It's not fancy, but it's clean, affordable, and right on the beach--which is what really counts.

I really want to give them a good review on their hospitality. Sara at the check-in office was…read moreabsolutely wonderful and true gem, so helpful and hospitable. She told us to let her know if there was anything that we needed very kind of her. We didn't mind putting the $20 down for the key deposit. Our hotel bookings total was $81 good price for a place by the beach. We only stayed one night seeing it was. It was a spontaneous trip for my husband's birthday when we got into the room there was an absolute foul smell it smelled of mildew and sulfur. The only thing that got the stench out was me being over prepared and packing air freshener since i read the reviews before booking. the water is so smelly like sewage and sulfur. My husband was gagging when he was brushing his teeth because of the water we brought bottled just in case. The room was pretty clean sheets & pillows. At night when we were getting ready for bead a 1.5in roach came crawling out from behind our headboard. i think this place is great for a overnight beach trip. quick little in and out, so much potential for this place.
