Beach cities really aren't my thing, but I've been to a few. This city and the beaches are nice. There seems to be several hotels available too. We decided to state at the Best Western Stratford because of various reviews we read, on this hotel and others. The room was everything we read about. 1) Large 2) Good View 3)... more

We stay here when we visit our family in the area. If you are planning way ahead, it pays book with the hotel directly. The chatty day manager told me the rates are set for the current season, not for the season you will be staying in. So if you are booking a summer vacation in winter, you will get... more

I had stayed in the past, but under new owner and mangement. It is now very dirty, sheets, breakfast room and property in general. Staff does not know what is going on. Everything about my stay was awful. They even overcharged me and are fighting me for payment. I do not recommend this motel. There are too many other places... more

I was a bit hesitant after reading the reviews. The room was just as described. The staff were all friendly and helpful. There were no extra charges. We needed a port a crib and an extra parking permit and got it for no extra charge. After staying at other hotels in SD Area and paying extra fees for everything this... more

My husband, our children and our grandchildren met for a long weekend at the Stratford. We stayed in the old section of the hotel. Our rooms were great - large and clean. The staff was very nice. The location is good, close enough to walk to town or the beach. We have been coming to this hotel for many years... more

Our room was very clean. It overlooked the ocean. There was some construction going on, but it wasn't noisy, or any problem. Location was perfect for walking along the ocean cliffs, close to town and restaurants. Staff was great with us and our dogs! We were a little leary after reading a few of the comments, but the place was... more

First of all, for two nights mid-week, I paid $230 for a room that was dated, had an insufficient heating/cooling system that was noisy; had sheets that looked dirty and yellowed; was furnished with 1950's style furniture that looked old and out of place and not retro; had poor plumbing..causing the shower next door to sound like Niagra Falls and... more

Called the Inn directly on Thursday, July 16 to book 2 rooms next to each other for Saturday, July 18, 2009. Needed two rooms together - traveling with our elderly mother w/ Alzheimer’s and Diabetes. Was given incorrect rates on first call. Luckily called back a few min later after seeing lower rates on Best Western website. Sales Mgr corrected... more

Spent 3 nights for July 4th weekend. This hotel is old and basic but comfortable. Staff are very friendly and helpful. Our room had an ocean view. There are two great pools. Breakfast is free but meager - ok for kids. If you're looking for a glam resort this is not it, but I found it comfortable and relaxing. It's... more
