Office was closed. So i checked in at the hotel next door. They gave me a key to a dirty room, clearly they didnt have the 2nd key because it was in the room. So i went back and asked for a clean room. Theres a pringle wrapper in the peep hole, blood on the wall, gross beds and someone put a walmart bag on the smoke detector. Unsafe isnt even the word.

I spent 3.5 hrs trying to get a refund. This hotel should be condemned. I cannot believe Expedia promotes this hotel. Completely unsafe and unsanitary. Went through 5 rooms and still was gross. False advertising with nice pictures. Would've left but had 3 children and no where else to go. Stains on sheets, black mold in shower and bathroom, broken doors to bathroom and main door, reeked of cigarette smoke, manager was high and smelled of marijuana, no hot water in shower. Expedia was completely unhelpful in resolving solution to an acceptable manor.

Fantastic for the price

For the price, this is a great hotel. There are no frills, so don't expect anything amazing but again for the price this is a great hotel. Beds are comfortable, you get a small fridge and a microwave and plenty of room. On top of that, you are walking distance to great restaurants and the boardwalk which also has some things open (it was winter when I stayed and VERY windy and cold). Anyone who does not give this hotel a good rating is expecting the Taj Mahal for dollar store rates. I will be going back in a few weeks for mandatory vacation my job has me taking.

Are you there for the hotel or the beach

The property was old and unimproved with very few amenities. That being said, the rooms were clean and the bed was comfortable. The beac and boardwalk was a comfortable 1.5 block walk for these osteoarthritic knees. Restaurants were also an easy walk
