    We stayed here 2 years ago and the owner was a very nice and accommodating man. So when I booked again this year, I was expecting the same owner. Well, we checked in with a man who was clearly on drugs. We also realized after the first day that there are many families living within the facility. There were even children. We could not use the pool at all. The families that lived there took it over. I was extremely disappointed with our stay and will not be going back. Also, I do believe they were turning our ac off when we left the room. Every time we came back, it was off.

    They allowed us to do a late check out that cost $45 more to stay until 3pm. We wanted to go to the beach and wash up before we headed home.

    Since my friend and I traveled in different vehicles they changed us an additional $50 to park the other vehicle in their parking lot. One room one vehicle. If you parked on the street you could get towed since it was in a residential area. And any parking space in town that has a number on it is on a meter.

    Walking distance from many activities

    Run down. Room needs much TLC! staff was very friendly and helpful. Our air conditioner kept shutting off. When I asked the man at the front desk he told me to take it off auto. Alexis came up to our room to assist and figured out the beds are placed too close so the air isn’t circulating and it thinks it’s cool in the room. She helped us push the beds away and it worked! The light over my bed was out, rust on shower rod, no bar to secure room from staff, toilet paper holder off the wall.

    Close to boardwalk and beach

    I love retro, and I think it could work for this hotel, but there does need to be some upgrading.

    Even though the facility is outdated, it was clean. Staff was very welcoming AC was not working in our first room, and they took care of it immediately. It had everything the hotel we stayed at the night before, but for half the price., plus parking and a pool. Again, it needs a facelift, but they had clean rooms.

    The room was very crammed with two queen size beds barely enough room to get to the bathroom. Towels were dirty when we got there. The air conditioner was very undersized for the room and right against one of the queen size beds so it was very hot because the air couldn’t circulate. We were on the bottom floor and there were people on the balcony above us and in and out of there room making noise and running around above us until 3am. No one from management came out to tell them to keep the noise down.

    Convenient location, not too far from the boardwalk.

    I didn’t like that the drawers all had debris in them and there was hotdogs in the freezer. I didn’t like that the bathroom sink was covered in a film of dirt and a rag was still on the floor. Also the tv wasn’t hooked up correctly and the remote was missing.

    I liked that it was quiet and not too far from the beach. The price was about $40 cheaper than our normal hotel in the same vicinity. The staff was friendly and polite.

    Instructions for how to use the TV would have been helpful. It did not supply beach badges. The last hotel I stayed in did. No tourist info. The chairs supplied were very flimsy. I think they would break if a man sat in them. The mattress was terrible.

    It was clean and walking distance to the beach and a deli.

    Very uncomfortable to sleep because both beds have plastic on the mattress. They have beach passes available but we needed to pay $120 cash as a deposit.

    Pool small, but very clean.

    Biggest thing I would have to point out would be that the beds are VERY uncomfortable, they were just as stiff as a 2x4 piece of wood. The mini fridge did not work which thankfully we brought our own yeti cooler with us to keep our food and drinks cold. The floor was all sticky and did not appear to be cleaned, the bathroom faucet leaked pretty bad to the point where, as the water was on, it would trickle out of the rear faucet resulting in the whole top of the vanity to be covered in water. They did not have your typical ice machine as most places do.

    There wasn’t much that actually stood out to me in terms of liking anything in particular. Has your basic set up for a motel except the fact that it lacked a few things. Parking was pretty good.

    Only suggestion is to get a coffee maker in the room, also no reflection of the motel, but whomever was in room 24 was banging and banging four hours on the door at 2 am, very loud, disturbing and had no regard ! Very ratchet folk.

    Very convenient to the boardwalk and neighborhood convenience stores.
