East Bay Suites

East Bay Suites

10/10 Excellent
"Im posting this review in part because I’m disappointed with Expedia. And posted a negative review to East Bay Suites by accident. Because my reservation at Black Sand Beach Hotel was a disaster! I stayed at East Bay Suites last week and the week before and service was first class! Great location! Beautiful views! And fair price for the time of year. I felt at home! A real hiker paradise! Tried to find something in Silver Bay with Expedia and showed up to nothing but a “You do not have a room” In the middle of the night on foot! I’m probably just and idiot for using Expedia"
