This was one of the worst properties I ever stayed out, totally not worth $200 a night ! Prices were hugely inflated because of the music festival happening Sept 27-29 . There was no breakfast included ( other hotels offered it) , the WiFi was spotty, the TV had a permanent vertical line on the screen. No toiletries. Old sheets with holes in them ( luckily I brought my own) . The fridge was not cooling though it “worked” ( the light was on, but my dog food got spoiled in 2 days spent there ). That was the only reason I stayed there, as it was one of the few pet-friendly hotels . Pet fee $60. The only positive was that there was free parking. I have pictures attesting the “beauty” of this place . There is potential, as it is located one block from the boardwalk….if only the owners would care .

Pros: Excellent location, hot water, working toilet. Cons: The door didn’t seal and only had a lock on the doorknob. There was pet damage throughout, mismatched furniture with peeling veneers, and the AC unit was filthy and held up with shims. The window had broken blinds, so people could see right into your room!

Location was convenient and close to boardwalk. Room was what you expect for a last minute decision and price. Only thing that was difficult was parking, spaces arent made for large trucks. Other issue was the guy checking people in is rude and has no personality, should find new job not in customer service

This property was HORRIBLE! DO NOT STAY THERE… We slept in our clothes and barely stayed in the room. That’s what happened when you wait until the last minute. Cheap is not always good…. BTW- they only give you two towels weather or not you have 1 person with you or 3. Tv don’t work. Holes in walls. Just a hot mess. Definitely look pass this place. STAFF IS NASTY WILL TAKE YOU OUT YOUR CHARACTER.

Let’s start by saying that going into this, I knew it wasn’t going to be the best place to stay judging on past reviews. With that being said, my husband and I literally just wanted a place to rest our heads at night and to take a shower. Check in was confusing because you have to walk half a block down to another hotel property to do so. At check in, we discussed extending our stay two more nights with the property manager. She gave us an outrageous price for two more days (more than double what we had already paid for 3 nights/4 days), but we decided to just go ahead and book it. Fast forward two more days and we realized that the tag in our window (for parking) still had the original date on it. Went back and spoke to the woman at the front desk and she said she wasn’t sure what happened but to talk to the manager in the morning about it. We returned in the morning to again no manager and this young man gave us a new price of $250 more for the same two nights that we were supposed to be given and was told by him that he could not honor that price but to again come back in the morning and speak to the manager. When we went back in the morning for the 3rd time, the office was locked and we decided to start looking other places, to which we found a beautiful ocean front room on the boardwalk that was double the size, for hundreds of dollars less. The rooms are VERY small, with a VERY small bathroom and not very clean. Door could easily be broken in to and paper thin walls.

Never never again!
I took pictures- when the door is shut you can see the light from the outside. The shower was horrible. The caulking was dirty and when you ran the water in the sink it would fill up with water and not drain. There were no curtain and a dollar store blind was at the window with no way to shut the blind other than to use your hand to pull the blind down. I refused to bring my clothes in the room. The floor was dirty. The air condition work well but was loud and you couldn’t hear the tv. The ac was in the wall like a window unit. The tv worked but the volume didn’t work right. You were only allowed one car per room. Didn’t see this posted before I made the reservation.
