Reviews for Dolphin Inn in Fort Walton Beach

Review 1:I disliked the idea that it didn't have complimentary breakfast or a swimming pool.

Review 2:I liked the peace n quietness. No one bothered us. Everybody was friendly.

Review 3:Rude staff cleanliness

Review 4:Nothing at all when I got there I was called and told my reservations was going to be canceled because my card declined when I clearly stated on website that I would be paying cash for room. Also I got there and the manager of hotel was arguing with a customer and being rude to them while another was waiting to get refunded because of the hotel being nasty. The rooms were nasty and smelled like mold the shower was nasty paint was pealed off walls, couldn't use my hair dryer every time I did the plug would shut off and not let me use it. They gave me two towels and two rags for a shower for one night and I was staying three and when I went to get more towels the manager was rude and told me I had to throw the dirty ones outside on the ground before I could get more ...the staff was very rude and I will not be back to this hotel very dissatisfied with my stay and actually left a day early because of it.

Review 5:The owners didn't tell us everything before we got their start charging us extra fees. Wi-Fi didn't work it was just not a good stay I would not recommend

Review 6:Just to have a place for that weekend

Review 7:It was a horrible experience!!! The place was nasty, the manager wasawful, and the room was so dirty that my kids wanted to sleep in thetruck instead of the room. They over charged me and when I wanted arefund the manager refused. I had to have the booking company intervenefor my family.

Review 8:Nothing

Review 9:No coffee bare bones could use a little something for your money spent

Review 10:Nothing was bad just a very small room with no frills. $ for this room was a little high with nothing to bring you back

Review 11:Well for starters the toliet was not bolted to the floor and we never had enough toilet paper for 5 people. Also the reservation was not right. It only had us listed for 2 adults plus there were roaches in the closet! Very poor place and you charged way too much money!

Review 12:Great location, close to stores and restaurants. And there was cable. Wi Fi was not good connection!

Review 13:They charged for ice! Good grief. The receptionist was locked up in a little room with bars on it. The room was small and dingy. No amenities. No pool. No breakfast or business center.

Review 14:The wifi worked. The hotel was on a busy street with food options

Review 15:We didn't like anything about it we over 300 dollars and it was barely wort 50 dollars. Actually I will be going further and expecting a full refund

Review 16:The units are old and are in need of upgrading. Broken tiles and old windows in the bath room. Bed spread was showing wear, looked old. Ice machine broken , took my money because it was a vend machine.

Review 17:Staff did move me to a non- smoking room as requested. Still had some smell and cigarette burns on micro wave.

Review 18:The cancellation Policy shown, which was to cancel 2 days prior to checkin, which is what I attempted to do however, Sue at the Hotel told metheir policy was to cancel by 2:00 pm 2 days prior or I would be chargedthe full amount regardless. I was not treated fairly and do not agreewith how this whole process occurred. There are notes on my account fromZachary stating my request for cancellation. The Hotel not onlyovercharged me for lodging but an additional $88.90 for my guest &their 14 year old son for 1 room with double beds, plus an additional$6.00 for whatever!

Review 19:I did not like anything about this Hotel or booking experience! Theinformation was very misleading and was going to be charged for bothnights whether I checked in or not! Not happy with their Staff,Cleaniness, location, etc.

Review 20:No available WiFi, no pool, rooms stunk, rooms were not even next to one another. Husband had to take a couple of the kids in one room and me and the rest of the kids a few doors down. Will never go back.

Review 21:Absolutely nothing

Review 22:The property manager was very rude. When I got in to check in she madeit a point to break down this whole issue with booking.com. I felt likeshe didn't want to check me in till she proofed her point about"my error". She also seemed very frustrated to be talking tome very unprofessional. The cleaning crew spent an awful lot of time inthe common area looking at you this made us feel unsafe. The room wassmall and there were extra person fees for both of my kids, even thoughwe had double beds. The bathrooms are old and worn down, there was nohot water. Overall I would never come here again but not bc of how oldand tired the rooms are but because the manager was beyond rude.Definitely not a hotel for families.

Review 23:I liked the location of the hotel it is a very short distance fromDestin. I also liked Kevin and Sam. They were beyond professional andsincere. They were the only reason why I decided to go with them. Veryhelpful men. Wish I could've thanked them in person.

Review 24:There were roaches in the hotel bathroom. I had a business partner taking me out for drinks after I had gotten there late (after 9pm), and I was informed I had to pay $10 extra for having anyone coming in or out regardless of staying there if it was after 10pm. I just think that is poor business standards if you do not tell your guests ahead of time.

Review 25:For this price, you are paying for the destination, not the room.

Review 26:The bed was soft and comfy and the air conditioning, fridge, and microwave were clean and worked.

Review 27:I didn't like the fact that when we left the room To go do things for the day a bunch of our things came up missing from our room, we questioned the manager and was told we were liars that we needed to leave the property.. I will never be back to this place.

Review 28:I didn't like anything about this place,

Review 29:Needs a renovation, the whole place looks sketchy.. my friend and I found a syringe on top of the door frame in the restroom. Definitely not worth it, cheap or not..

Review 30:If I had realized what we were getting, I wouldn't have booked it. My mistake. The facilities are very old 50s or 60s, commode and sink both moved when used. People (two staff) were not welcoming at all.

Review 31:We were so tired the bed was comfortable, our room was relatively clean.

Review 32:The staff was rude and miss treated my wife when she came to visit me. They treated her like she was a criminal. This is after I paid for her stay.

Review 37:Cheaper than most but still not good value
