We were quite happy with our stay at this Embassy Suites over presidents day weekend. The room was comfortable and clean, and looked like it had recently been renovated. Everything worked. The common areas all seemed very nice, and also appear to have undergone a recent renovation. We didn't use it but there's a very nice indoor pool. Free breakfast was a plus as well. If you're looking for a reasonably priced two room suite in the area, it seems hard to beat this place.More

Our experience at this hotel was one disaster after another! We arrived and didn’t have any blankets on one of the beds-we were told they were all out when we called the front desk-my son slept with only a sheet the first night.
The next morning, we tried to take showers but only some of us could because we didn’t have enough towels for the four of us and when we called the front desk we were told they were in the dryer! The two of us who took showers were then pelted with scalding hot water for the entire shower no matter how we adjusted the water! We asked for room service-and blankets for the bed-we received another sheet…
When we arrived that evening they had made the beds and didn’t leave any towels or blankets, again!!!! We called and complained, they apologized but didn’t bring any towels or blankets just sheets! We called again-it took 3 calls to get towels! The next day we again asked for room service. They didn’t clean the bathroom or take the trash, they just made the beds and surprise!-no towels or blankets again! We even called while we were out that day to make sure the room was being serviced and to kindly remind them of what we needed! Amazing! The icing on the cake was arriving that night to find our room keys not working. We were told we needed to have them reactivated, but the front desk person couldn’t figure out how. She called security to let us into the room but when we asked how we could get back in if we left again, she didn’t know! She called the manager and it took them 30 minutes to re-key the room!
Then, the breakfast line-it took 30 minutes of waiting in line to receive an omelette from the walk up station! The elevator buttons only sometimes work-the maintenance person told us when they painted, they painted the connector wires and so now they don’t always work.
Do not stay here! Stay anywhere else and it will be better!!

I filled out the survey I receive as a Hilton Honors member and the reply I got from the manager covered part of my family’s issues but the referenced an issue I never mentioned in my survey.
We arrived and the staff was friendly and kind but the hotel from the start seemed older and worn. Outside the room was a dirty plate, and it stayed there all night. The room was perfectly sized, however as we started to use its features we noticed horrible woodwork and rust all around the bathroom. We notified the staff, but didn’t have time to move, as we also found out the complimentary evening reception was not happening as advertised on the Hilton app where we chose the hotel.
We ended up having to leave to get dinner and didn’t get back until late. My husband was running in the Surf City half marathon the next morning and none of us was well-rested after such a late night.
The manager’s email to me prompted this review. They referenced the heating and cooling system when my concern was clearly the rust and oddly assembled room.
Dear lildevilmama,
Thank you for providing us with feedback from your recent stay. It's great to hear that our staff was accommodating and polite, however, I do regret that you experienced several shortcomings during your stay especially with the condition of the hotel andf the cleanliness during your most recent stay with us. I have communicated these issues with the appropriate department heads to ensure they are remedied quickly. Thank you again for your feedback, and we hope to be able to exceed your expectations in the future!
We had several issues during our stay.
1. There was a dirty plate leaning up against the wall in front of our room.
2. The lighting in the entire hotel, including our room, is quite dim; I couldn't imagine staying there for more than one day. I felt terrible for the employees forced to work in such a dimly light work environment.
3. We were under the impression, based on their description, that a complimentary happy hour is included; this was a determining factor in booking this hotel over another more conveniently located hotel. We ended up spending $60 on drinks with our visiting friend.
4. The lamp next to the bed has 2 USB outlets that only have power if the light is on. Had I not noticed this before going to bed, we would have woken up to dead phones and possibly missed the Surf City race because alarms don't go off on dead phones. I had to unscrew the lightbulb to get the phones charged while we slept.
5. Despite all the issues, they wouldn't allow us to check out 30 minutes later, so not everyone could take a shower after the race in the morning.
6. We paid for a balcony upgrade only to find no chairs on the balcony, making the upgrade pointless.

Will not come back here again. Encountered multiple issues during a one night stay. Price is not reasonable for the quality of room. Phone was not working and WiFi was unavailable. The Hotel had good customer service however and the staff was very friendly and understanding.
