“Ocean View Inn's proximity to the beach is notable, but that's where the appeal seems to end. Reports of bed bug infestations, unsanitary conditions, and disruptive disturbances raise serious concerns about the overall guest experience. This is a property that needs considerable attention to meet basic expectations of cleanliness and safety.”
