This place is not as advertised. Its pretty much a mattress on the floor with 2 thin pillows. There was no place to sit. The place was very noisey. There are a lot of drug addicts and very sketchy people hanging around there.There is no parking there. We didnt even stay.We checked in and then checked out. No refund was offered. They just told us that it was our fault for not reading the reviews. You are better off sleeping in the car. Don't waste your time or money by going to this place. You will be disappointed. I could not rate this place a zero star or I would have.
There was mold in bathroom and the room wasnt very clean and smelled. Told staff and they did nothing. I told them it isnt good to have mold its a health concern and one women in back was saying threats, threats! Wouldnt recommend staying there! And im not picky when it comes to staying at places. I was so stiffed up in morning barely slept.
It appeared clean at first, but everything is old and worn, and then I noticed the bedside table had clearly not been cleaned. It felt very sketchy in the area and around the hotel. Locals I spoke to could not believe I was staying there. Avoid.
Simple but dated property. Decent location, walk to many restaurants.

Liked: Staff & service, amenities
Friendly staff upon arriving, reasonable rates for the budget conscious. Shower track could use some extra cleaning. Strict policies. Parking extra. Basic accommodations
Not much to like.!!!
No cable TV, Wifi has a poor connection, some staff I heard talking about their customers.
Very dull place to stay.
I really wouldn’t recommend this hotel to anyone.
Needs to have cable tv and less chatter about their customers, why Expedia would recommend this hotel for anyone’s stay is beyond me.
Not great. No services. Had to get own towels and fight for basic room service. Very convenient for where we needed to get to. Don't have the energy to name all the negative
Looks like a rundown apartment. Not in a good location and wiring is visible and doesn’t look safe. It smells musty the tv doesn’t work, bathroom is smaller than a portable toilet deck and rooftop is very dirty and not maintained. The parking space can hold maybe 4 cars. But it was cheap
the place was in the middle of renovation so construction dirt and noise depending on which part of the building
staff seems hard working but not professional
very shady characters staying in the property
we got one small used soap bar and had to ask for another one
internet signal is week, not coffee machine or kettle to make tea, but there is a small fridge and microwave
shower is decent and water pressure is good
beds were comfortable and clean
area is close to boardwalk (25 min walk) with few delis/cafe's and bars
I would only recommend if you are travelling and trying to keep accommodation costs to a minimum and are not planning on spending anytime in hte motel except to sleep (not table/chairs/etc in the room and I got the premium room)
for additional $25/night you can get much nicer places
The staff were extremely nice. The property however is poorly kept and the inside disjointed. Wires and cables running outside of walls , old dark hallways. No cable television available. My room was very clean and sheets were clean. It does need a major bathroom upgrade and improvement to finishes. 1 ply toilet paper and ketchup packets of shampoo that are impossible to open with wet hands is really not necessary to skimp on.
