My stay was wonderful, everything was great but the building is an older building, but as far as the amenities and stuff, I would recommend this to anyone who wants to travel on a budget. I would come back again to stay again, very clean, and the staff was very helpful.

I was pleasantly greeted by the girl at the front desk. Check in was easy. Room was as expected. It was nice to be able to cook breakfast and coffee. It was convenient to be able to keep lunch stuff in the refrigerator. The view and beach access are superb.

Hotel staff are very nice. Hotel is run down and needs work. Nice ocean view. There was a piece of flashing that was loose from the roof. When the wind blows, it bangs against the roof and it was very windy while we were there. There was a dumpster at the end of the building we stayed in so maybe they are remodeling g.

The staff was nice & check-in was a breeze. The room was clean & spacious. Parking is a little questionable. The lot is too small, so recommend parking across the street. Would definitely stay again

Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Room was clean but shabby. Patio and balconies have been declared unsafe by council inspector making private boardwalk access to beach unpassable. Outside areas scuffy and littered. Rubbish stored under fire escape stairs. Laundry facilities require 2.75 in quarters for each washer and drier. Nowhere close to purchase detergent. Would not use again

Amazing for the price.
This was a wonderful place to stay. When you can see that a place is older, you wonder if the pictures will match reality and they absolutely did. I still can’t believe that I was able to get a room with a beach walkout at such an affordable price. The pool was heated and well maintained and there was plenty of room for a relaxing walk on the beach. We certainly hope to stay here again.
