Customer Reviews
I was called out for work at Hotel Milo. Their laundry room is very well put together. I decide where I stay based on the state of their laundry machines and room. It was great, I felt very comfortable staying here. Decided on getting my hotel room there because of the beautiful location and rooms and earlier mentioned comment on my job there. My stay was spectacular! Me and my partner stayed in the ocean view king room in building 2, overlooking the beach. The view was fantastic, I believe the front desks staff name was Johnathan or Jacob. He was extremely polite and helped us at every turn. The valet went above and beyond delivering our luggage to our room upstairs. The amenities were great and staff helped us when we had some minor hiccups during our checkout and were very accommodat
I rarely if ever write reviews but felt compelled to express my disappointment with this hotel. It’s really more of a motel. Room is spacious but ceilings low. Room relatively clean, but there is a strong “pine-sol” smell (yuck). Air conditioning is just a wall unit similar to what you find in a Hilton Garden Inn. But the HGI feels more like a hotel than the Milo. The walls are thin so it’s quite noisy here. Pounding drum-beating music that didn’t seem to ever end. The view out our window is seriously sad—large containers that probably were construction-type trash bins. The fitness center is under renovation (as is one pool) which was never explained on the website nor via email after booking!!! The gym they let you use is a good 10 min walk away—very inconvenient. Bathroom is very small.
Overall rating: 4.6 Visiting from NYC I found this spot because my usual place was sold out. Cute boutique hotel but I didn’t realize I was staying in a solo spot which was cool. The lights did not work at all & when I reported it, they said they would come by and fix it and they did not.. I ended up relying on my flashlight along with lamps. The bed and bathroom lighting was impeccable, but I don’t think the staff was used to my east coast personality. I had a lot of questions every day, and some were nice - but others were not. Very mixed bag. That said, this place deserves more than a 3.5 rating
Positive: location near the water Negative: room was small; it was a really tight squeeze between the air conditioner unit and the bed
The new renovations of the rooms are absolutely stunning. The ocean view king was impeccable and very spacious. The bed was super comfy too! The staff were all very welcoming and made our stay that much more enjoyable. Perfect location across the street from the beach! Will 100% stay here again!
