The Manager’s customer service was terrible - during check - in at hotel, I requested for a sea view room, receptionist nicely informed me that rooms will be available by the 2nd day but I need to talk to the manager. Unfortunately, when I spoke with the manager he said because I booked with Expedia it won’t be possible. I told him that I am only requesting for a sea view and if it needs any additional payment as upgrade then I can pay. He walked away without responding which I think was rude. As manager I was expecting much from him in terms of customer service.

Property was not well kept, I had to move to three different rooms before I settled to the third room. Stayed at this property for 9 days and half of those days, elevator was not working. I was on the 4th floor with bad knees so you can imagine. The shower and sink water was dirty (red coloration and taste like acid). Bathroom and room smells terribly. Staffs at the front desk and restaurant were very nice and accommodating but the facility service and cleanliness is poor.

Disappointing
Customer service was terrible and slow. Receptionists were extremely rude and housekeeping often forgot towels in the room, which would take 7 or 8 trips and multiple hours to the receptionist to get. Breakfast is poor quality; some of the worst coffee I’ve ever had and pastries were often stale. Rooms are poor quality, stained towels and sheets, I had a broken shower that it took two days to fix, again because of an unresponsive reception. For the amount they charge, it’s extremely poor value. Stay somewhere else.

I came to this hotel hoping to get a view of the beach, upon arrival, I was told that the room that I booked was not a sea view room. I will be getting a view of the pool. I asked if I can change that, I was told the hotel was booked to capacity. The room was not ready when I arrived, I had to wait 40 mins in the lobby before they could give me a room that I reserved. I was not impressed by the look of the room, it looks old inside and the bathroom was dull, more bright lights would be better. For the amount of money that I payed, I expected more. To make matters worst, the WiFi is horrible. My data was faster than their WiFi. When I called to complain, I was told they are working on it and the problem would be resolved soon. The next morning, still the same issue.

Exceptional experience
Experience was great! I accidentally booked a room for a twin bed but they kindly upgraded me to a sea view suite with no additional cost. This is my go-to hotel in Lumely Beach area. This was my third stay at Sierra Palms and each time I am pleased with the experience. Great service also.
