Sleep Inn on the Beach

Great location, good breakfast, clean room Door to the bathroom was broken, shower was partially painted, toilets didn't flush properly, ocean view was more of a parking lot view, and the minifridge was extremely loud.

The proximity to the beach was great! Room was small but everything seemed new or newer. Well..The proximity of the beach greatly diminishes when they lock all the outside doors. The front door was the only one open. When I asked the attendant, he got rude and told me they had noise complaints so they locked all the doors. Wouldnt you just stop the noise instead? And the AC unit was way over its head in the room. Kinda worked...sorta.

Location was perfect, right on the beach, comfortable bed, nice views, friendly staff. Very small bathroom, shower not really clean, my hallway smelled terrible. Like poop. I was on the 3rd floor. At night time when we were sleep my husband & I smelled poop.

Confortable room. Quaint pool area. Balcony is a plus, but a bit small and narrow. We weren't given the option of having a beachfront room. No rooms are smoking. No microwaves in the room. Elevators are extremely slow. Very small continental breakfast, dining area too crowded to tackle alone with a 10 month old. Beach access slightly inconvenient. Definitely overpriced. The majority of the hotel faces the adjoining condos and hotels rather than the beach itself.

We didn't spend much time in the room because the beach location was perfect. Great restaurants in the area. If you love BBQ then try Moes across the street. Seafood at Sea and Suds to dine and watch the waves. The staff was friendly and eager to please but Betty the breakfast hostess was delightful and so pleasant every morning. We were very pleased with our stay.

Hotel was conveniently located My wife and I had to leave the night we were scheduled to stay around 9:30pm to get home to our 15 month old who had a bacterial infection. So we were not able to stay the night. The hotel told me to call expedia who "approved" the refund. The front desk person advised me I would then have to call back and speak to the GM to talk refund. Mr Bolin informed me I could not even get a partial refund because they could not book out the room to their sold out hotel. In case of emergency do not expect any "understanding" from Mr. Bolin. 3 important things I have learned from this: 1. Each Choice Hotel is independently owned and operated so a refund of some sort could of been given. 2. Sleep INN in Orange Beach values their $220 more than genuine understanding of the situation and my son's health. 3. I will never stay at a Choice Family Hotel on my dime again. I will tell all my friends this story and recommend the Hampton Inn conveniently located next door. Hope your "policy" was worth the lost business.
