This place is a dump! The staff is unfriendly. Was told (actually shouted at) that there was NO CHECK INS until 3pm. Went to the desk at 3pm to check in and waited in line that was outside the door. There was one person checking everyone in. The lobby is musty & out dated. The furniture is old and scary.... more

FLAT pillows - No reception on radio - ceiling FALLING IN all over the floor - DIRTY windows - BAR closes at 8 pm OR before. Restaurant is only breakfast (7:30-11 am). NO dividers between balconies so feel like family with your neighbor. Staff very friendly. more

From the moment I called for directions, the service stood out at this Daytona Beach Shores hotel! The hotel staff was not only highly professional, courteous, and friendly, but extremely genuine in their concerns in making sure my stay was as pleasant as could be. In a town riddled with hotels, The Surfside Hotel proved that their service is the... more

It was the most disgusting place that we have ever stayed in. The rooms were old and run down. Dirty and smelly. Don"t go out on balcony without blocking door to keep from closing or you get stuck on balcony because door won't open, as door handles broken. Had to move furniture to get coffee pot plugged in as there... more

I booked this hotel through Hotwire about a month ago. Hotwire recently downgraded this hotel to 2 1/2 stars which I think is pretty much on par for the accomodations. I must add they gave me $125 in Hotdollars for keeping the reservation. I still had major worries about this hotel before today. I am typing this right from my... more

This is a joke of a hotel. I won this trip through our local radio station. I tried to find reviews on it, but really didn't find much. My family spent the most part at Walt Disney World then we headed to this hotel for 2 days and 2 nights. Upon arrival, the place was dirty, the outside looked run... more

Texas: The Surfside Hotel, Daytona Beach: "Absolutely horrible!" Date: November 27, 2007 Maybe when the Surfside was new it looked like the pictures on their website, but it is no longer new and those pictures in no way apply. The only thing from the website that appears to be correct is that it is on the beach. During my stay,... more

Needed more housekeeping maintenance in the common areas. The same half english muffin sat near the elevator on the first floor for two days. It may still be there!! The elevators were filthy with litter. I felt that if housekeeping patrolled the area several times a day, this could have been eliminated. Also, the restaurant was closed the whole time... more

I rate the overall experience as terrible because the place is a dump. Hotwire rates this property as a three star hotel as most of the hotels in the area are, but this is not a three star hotel. I would really have a hard time giving it a two star rating. I have stayed in hotels/motels off the highway... more
