Hawk's Nest Lodge

The place has potential. And if you don’t mind a dirty place to lay your head for the night it’s good. Perks are the pool is 24 hours but that’s about it. It is in a good place to walk to the beach and drive to things within a short distance but overall the lock on our door was broke the door was shady. The place is ran by a couple but they need to do way more upgrades to the place and maybe hire some help. It could be something great but we will skip it next time and stay at the Belmont

The pictures of the hotel, lobby and rooms on the internet are a honeypot play. Those pics are from several years ago and do not accurately represent the current conditions. A husband & Wife team took over managing the property about 3 years ago. This team handles everything including cleaning the rooms themselves and maintenance etc etc. Upon entering the main lobby I thought I had walked into the living room of a hoarder, there was stuff pilled up everywhere and nobody to be seen. I actually thought maybe the booking website was in error and this hotel was actually closed. After a minute or so the wife of the team came out and greeted me. After a conversation I was given my room key but she did tell me I may have to jiggle the lock to get it to open? I entered the "Non" smoking hotel room only to be greeted by a strong Oder of cigarettes, it smelled like a giant ashtray. A small couch was inside the room covered in stains, cushions, arms, everything stained from what appeared to be a result of people using the pool outside and then sitting on the couch with their wet chlorine soaked clothes, it was really gross. There was a sink outside of the toilet area and when I went to turn on the water the enter faucet lifted up and moved around several inches in all directions. Upon opening the door to the toilet and shower area the flooring looked like someone laid down regular plywood and just painted over it, the wood wasn't even or cut to fit properly, almost as if a kid had done it. The shower curtain was also about 6 inches too short so if you take a shower the entire floor in the bathroom area become wet, the shower pan only had less than an inch of lip which isn’t high enough to keep water from over flowing. The toilet after flushing kept running. The curtains in the room are a very light day type curtain not designed to keep light out so in the morning the room is incredibly bright making sleeping in impossible. Plus these curtains don’t provided and privacy at night as people can see right through them if you have any lights turned on in the room. The curtain also were not wide enough to cover the entire window area, they were about 3 inches too short on both sides, not only that but the room’s a/c unit sits right below the curtains and it would blow the curtains open, we had to weigh down the Botton of the curtains on the window ledge to get just a little bit of privacy and keep the lights off at night. One last thing to note is upon leaving the room for a walk the front outside door knob came completely off. The team Husband came out to fix it saying he must’ve forget to put the final screw in after he had worked on it the other day, I don’t think the door knob is the only thing missing a screw if you catch my drift. And to top everything off there was a trail of ants along the floor in the room. Whoever owns this property needs to pay it a visit. Never in my life have a seen such a mess. The sad thing is the husband and wife team thinks eve

There was supposed to be a desk
