“Inn At East Beach has a desirable location near the beach, but some rooms seem to suffer from cleanliness and noise issues; this inconsistency makes it hard to recommend without reservations. While the front desk is reportedly helpful, experiences appear uneven, especially concerning management interactions and unexpected charges. Potential guests should weigh the location's appeal against reports of upkeep problems and billing disputes.”
