Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Everything was outdated and rundown. AC is loud. It looked like a halfway house. We only stayed 1 night but I didn’t sleep at all. It is in some serious need of sprucing up. It was walkable to the boardwalk. Staff was not there upon arrival. I needed to call.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
My Son ended up going to the property and unfortunately was very disappointed about no one being available at check in, the unopened room, security concerns , the cleanliness of the room, the smell of cigarettes in the room. He dropped off the key and is not staying tonight or tomorrow night. I think a refund should be in order ultimately from your property. I took a chance as it said 8 out of 10 reviews through Expedia and it didn’t work out.

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
This room was so dirty had stained carpet and walls were filthy and bathroom was gross and when we checked in the fridge still had stuff inside so that tells me the room was not clean out right. The window would not lock and the door was easy to break in. I would never stay here again and if I was able to find a new place I would have. I can’t understand how they even have a 1 star

Honestly the perfect stay if you want something a little cheaper priced at the shore. Very quiet and the staff was beyond friendly and accommodating. We really enjoyed our stay and will absolutely stay here again when we go back!

The interior space and grounds were immaculate. The bathroom fixtures and floor and wall tile appeared to be new. The bedding was clean and comfortable. The carpeting and hard floor were very clean and in excellent condition. On site parking was easy and convenient. I will definitely stay here again.

It was a basic room with no extra amenities. The air conditioner kept the room pleasantly cool but was very noisy. The bed was comfortable enough.

Went for a weekend stay. It was very clean, well kept, staff was very nice at check in. Close walk to the boardwalk. It took us about 10 mins or less to walk with all of our beach stuff. Would love to stay here again! 😊
