Lankford Hotel and Lodge

Loved our stay, would definitely return.

Good air conditioning, clean room, clean bathrooms and cute atmosphere outside on the boardwalk.

Other guest were outside our room making incredible noise. Someone throw an air controller from their room and it landed on our porch. Nothing was done about it. Also there was a payment issue saying our room was paid then it became our fault.

So dissatisfied and disappointed. Someone else was parked in our assigned parking spot upon check-in. The room we booked was falsely advertised online, room very outdated, walls white and absolutely no pictures. We were also to have two double beds, ended up being a twin bed and a double bed. The room literally made us feel so uneasy and very uncomfortable and was no way we could have stayed 5 nights, let alone 1. Way over priced. Requested a refund, was told that night that a note would be left for the manager. The manager called the following day and told me they would call me back in 1/2hr and never called me back at all; very disappointing and unprofessional. Luckily we were able to get a 2 bedroom, newly renovated condo last minute.

A really great property. Staff was nice, I loved the great condition of this classic beach hotel. Felt more like a home. Which is definitely a good thing. Excellent location as well. I will definitely be back!

Great stay great hotel will be back

Staff was fantastic, very welcoming. Very clean and comfortable beds. Only complaint is that they never came to restock toilet paper or make the beds as advertised.

Yes, the parking lot is small. Yes, the place isn’t a 5star resort. Yes, it could use a facelift. It was perfect for a ladies weekend with clean sheets, hot water, a beautiful ocean view, on the boardwalk. Walking distance to absolutely anything you need. We had to walk up a flight of stairs with no elevator and we loved every minute of it.

Our room was very nice & actually more than I expected as I guess I didn't read the fine print indicating that it was an apt which was a little more than we really needed. As a senior, I wasn't expecting there not to be an elevator (shame on me for not asking I guess) as climbing three sets of stairs with our luggage, etc from the parking lot to our room was a little much for someone of my age. I knew from experience at our usual place that we stay at, getting a spot in the parking lot can be a crap shoot. Our usual place used to have a lot offsite that we could park at if their lot was full (they apparently don't have it any longer so we found out this past Aug as we were told we would have to park on the street if their lot was full). As a result, I inquired about what if we can't get a spot in the Lankford's parking lot. I was told that there would be someone there that would help us out (?). Not sure what that meant, so rather than go to the movies because it was raining terribly the first night of our stay, we stayed in rather than take a chance on losing our parking space in their lot. Also, if you're going to have a laundry room, the front desk should probably have quarters on hand as we did walk in the rain to the Doughroller for dinner before we called it a night. As a result, our clothes were soaked & I wanted to put them in their dryer. Unfortunately, they had no quarters to give us, so we had to make a trip up Coastal Hwy to a local laundrymat instead.

The carpet needs deep-cleaning in my room; i go barefoot most of the time, and the carpet turned my feet black. Housekeeping very nice, very accommodating. Love the 3rd floor porch!!
