Fantastic location room itself is okay. Sand on sheets and blankets when we checked in. Based on location I'd probably stay again and bring bedding. For the price its worth the money. Certainly isn't a luxury spot.

This is an old property, but it is well maintained. When we entered the room shortly after 4:00 p.m. the floor was still wet, and the room smelled heavily of bleach. It did not dissipate. The beds, which is how I often judge a room, were good, but there was a light directly outside the single window that stayed on all night, lighting the room enough that it was difficult to sleep. Big plus, though, it's only a block off the Boardwalk and the beach. If you're looking for affordable accommodations close to the beach, check out White Marlin.

Overall the location and the property/motel is good. We’ve stayed here a few times without anything causing us to question. But with staying in the apartment they have this time we had bugs that coming back over and over after killing them. They were like caterpillar like insects that were crawling on the ceiling and floors especially during the night. That was the only big issue that caused concerns. They may need to hire an exterminator to come and get rid of those.

The floors are filthy, walls, around door knob dirty. Kitchen had no plates etc. Was not furnished at all in kitchen. Smelled of mold. We tried putting dryer sheets everywhere for smell. I found dead bedbugs on the floor and we had to leave. A few men kept walking past our window all night so we felt unsafe there. Worst experience ever. We had to pay to book another hotel and left. I'm glad we did but so much money wasted. I spoke to front desk person and they said nothing just shook her head. Worst Birthday week ever.

I stayed a week with my girlfriend and we throughly enjoyed the stay. the staff was friendly to give me any needed towels or other things, the nice lady at the front desk let me check in early, and they always made sure to say hello. the room was perfect just a nice comfortable bed to sleep on in the night. sheets were a little dirty, and couldn’t figure out the tv but i’m not one to complain about small things. i enjoyed very much with an affordable price and so close to everything it was very convenient. the ac also got very cold making the room very nice after a long day. i would recommend

Arrive to check in to find a note on the door that says to go to another property to check it. Walk down to the other property to Check and the person in front of us has an issue but states that they need to discuss it in private so that they do not upset any other guest. Not a good feeling check in walk back to the property go to the room. Ac doesn’t work at all. I have to walk back to the other property because there’s no phone in the room to call for them not to believe me and for them to walk over to the property to look for me to have to walk back to the second property to get different room, keys and switch rooms. No housekeeping, never even got a clean towel the whole timeframe that we stayed there had to go back there and ask floors were never swept. Nothing trash was never taken out. It was horrible

Ants everywhere.

The first night we came back from the boardwalk, set down a slice of pizza, used the bathroom, and when I went to pick the pizza up there was ants all over the side table and my food. We couldn't set any food or drinks down without ants all over them. We asked for bug spray but they didn't have any.
