I wish I'd known how filty and small the rooms are. They put us in a room that hadn’t been cleaned from the previous guest. Yuck. We wanted to go get a room elsewhere but they wouldn't refund us because it was already past "cancelation time". So if you arrive after that time and find the place unacceptable, you are stuck staying there unless you want to eat the cost. BTW, the mattresses are the worst!!! 2 days later and my body still aches from "sleeping" there. If you want to stay beach side, don't stay here. It's a $100 a night upgrade. Not worth staying here just to save a few bucks!

As I was sitting in the parking lot of Hamilton Inn, I went to Travelocity website to put in my dates of stay which was that night I put in the 20th and 21 September Friday night to Saturday. I get a text message saying welcome congratulations blah blah blah. You are now scheduled for the 21st and 22 September that was not correct. I called the front desk sitting in the parking lot to correct it I did not go into the lobby because I was trying to do this immediately and they will not cancel it nor give my money back and so I did not stay at the Hamilton M. I had to go across the street to another hotel. I called Ralph Travelocity, and they could see that I was trying to correct it and they called the manager of the hotel Hamilton to know avail.

This was a comfortable but dated facility in need of a refresh and modernization. It was adequate for our needs, but the breakfast served was very mediocre, and the same served everyday. We ate breakfast elsewhere after the first day. Beds were comfortable and the facility was quiet.

The staff especially front desk were not welcoming they acted like checking you in and any question were bothering them. Breakfast food options were great but it was packed and not enough staff because they kept running out of food so what we could get was good. Not sure that we would stay in the future we found there are so many options for staying in the area.

Large room, with balcony overlooking the water. Large comfortable bed. Large sofa & table & chairs. The hotel itself was older and had a little musty smell upon entering the lobby. It was VERY clean, when cleaned, but cleaning crew were still cleaning rooms at 8:00 at night. Price was slightly above average to high on the weekends. Breakfast was not great, same food every day for 4 days. Long lines for pancakes or waffles.

The front desk staff was amazing, especially Michelle. However, the rooms lacked microwaves, the breakfast buffet was so-so and particularly disappointing that you could not take food back to the room for the sleep-in spouse. Would have extended the breakfast time by at least a half hour or more. Our room phone was labeled with the incorrect phone room number. The bathroom sink was dripping and the tv remote wouldn't work.
