For $215 a night there must be better options. The people (owners?) were nice, the room large but outdated, dark and dingy. Wifi works if you stand outside the office and the heated pool was ice cold. No shampoo, hair dryer etc. Flat sheets only on the bed. The only really redeeming quality was the location. If this room was $150 I would rate it better for the value.

I had no idea this place had an exterior "tenement" staircase of 3 stories. I am a fit 55+ but my friend is 81. I was terrified that he would fall. While they advertise ocean views from every room, the views are onto an ugly, rocky beach through phone lines. Rooms are very basic--not even a clock radio, shampoo or hair dryer (for more than $210??) The rooms never are dark at night as there are flood lights on the balconies outside. It was clean, but I would never go there again.

Rooms suck. No hot water, no clock, hair dryer, screen slider, wifi(as advertises). 200.00 a night I was expecting a nice motel. Rip off. Not to mention had to walk up three flights of stairs. 3 people , 2 washcloths. Next year we will call earlier and stay at the anchorage.

I have been going to York Beach since I was a little kid-first with family and then with my kids when they were young. Nowadays we go back every summer for a couple of weeks and bring the grandkids along as well. I have driven by the Grandview hundreds if not thousands of times and never gave it a second thought. This summer after having spent our two weeks at Long Sands (we rent a house) the weather was so amazing that I just had to get back. On such a short notice there were not many options but the Grandview had openings so I rented a room for my myself, my wife and our teenage daughter. I was completely impressed by the cleanliness of the entire place. The room although somewhat outdated was very clean and bright and the bathroom was just as clean. The entire property is well maintained-the lawn and flowers are manicured and easy on the eyes.
The pool was great for an afternoon dip and the owners were great.
The balcony and view cannot be beat! Sitting there in the morning or at night the sight and sound of the ocean directly across the street is amazing.
We will be back.
