Typical outdated room, it was clean enough to stay one night. Room was next to the parking spaces so you heard the older couples with loud bikes that were staying next door come and go.

This was an awful stay. There was no heat. Hotel was noisy and room had a musty Oder like it was wet. I was overcharged at check in for the room I just booked on Expedia! For the price I’m sure there are much better places to stay.

The housekeeper must’ve been distracted as one of the beds had pillows lying on top of the cases. This is a much older motel but it got us where we wanted to be for the night.

Place is run down and DARK. Sign doesn’t even have lights. Musty smell throughout. No soap. No hand towels. No bath mat. We drove to Kohls to buy pillows because I didn’t believe other people’s reviews about the flat pillows (My bad). Air conditioner so loud that we had to put tv on 45 volume just to hear it. Expedia said there was “Only one room left” and led me to believe other people were actually CHOOSING this hotel. There were a handful of people there. Plenty of open rooms. (Unless 75% of the hotel is uninhabitable, which might be the case). Room had two queen beds so it slept 4 people. We had 3 people yet had to pay an “extra guest” fee of $40 (False advertising). Stayed here to save money but we should’ve cut back elsewhere.
Breezeway to pool
Poorly lit
Our car and one other. Certainly more than “One room left”
Empty parking lot. More than “One room left”

It's been a decade since I have been to the Windjammer, but after my stay it feels like I never stopped going. It's been a tradition in my family to go once a year for a week during the summer when I was a kid from 3 years old to 23. Now I am 33, with kids of my own... And I'm so back! It's just like I remembered, the rooms have been updated a little, new countertops in the suites and a bigger fridge, new couch and new beds. All welcome changes. Some minor issues like a very small trace of mold above the shower head. But aside from that the room was clean, and comfortable for what it is! I loved my stay, the staff, the guests, everyone was a joy to be around and food at the windjammer is always a hit for me! I'll be back next year!

Joe at Windjammer is great

the hotel was great. the pool was really nice. they have a restaurant that is opened 8am to 7pm. the only negative i can say is we got a table at the restaurant for late breakfast and the service was very slow. otherwise, the experience was a great one.

Comfortable, family friendly lodging

I absolutely love this property. My family and I have stayed several times now and the ownership is a class act. My only constructive criticism would be that a bit more attention be paid to the cleanliness of the room. In this instance we found a used condom under the futon, as well as items under the bed. I feel horrible even having to say this because I have such high regard for ownership but I think it's important that they know for improvement sakes. Other than that I would recommend the windjammer to anyone looking to visit Seaside.
