Fridge and microwave and free coffee in the morning is a plus. Close to work and reasonably priced

It was awesome. Ten times better than the Motel 6 on Plaza Dr.
Pros:

Everything. Comfy, clean. No amenities in room, but available in office.

Cons:

Front desk checking was awesome and friendly. Gentleman there at checkout was not as friendly. He was NOT rude. Just not as friendly.

Pros:

Bed was big and comfortable, big TV and microwave and refrigerator
Pool is nice

Cons:

WiFi didn't work in my room, the shower drain stunk like sewage, and even after the maintenance was there it still stunk.
Insane prices for replacing towels or sheets, if they are deemed too dirty. Pool hours are short

Hooker hotel. You get what you pay for.
Pros:

Hot water was about the only things going for it

Cons:

It’s all hookers and drunks. The door to our room looked like it had been kicked in (several times), had to shove towels in the cracks of the door because whoever put it on thought it was a suggestion. The photos aren’t even close. No free breakfast as listed. Looked like someone spilled an ashtray in the bed. But you get what you pay for. And just a far enough walk to the beach to be a little inconvenient. About 25-30 minutes. Long walk if you have things to carry up the overpass it sits on.

you get what you paid for for this hotel and it was close to the beach I was able to go in the pool. The only thing I wo
Pros:

honestly, this place was a really basic hotel and did the job that I needed to do. The check-in was really easy and it does require $100 deposit if in worst cases you don’t take care of the room and you’re unable to get it back then I feel like that’s up to you overall the room was all right. We walked around with sandals most of the time because the floor made our feet black. but the TV worked the fridge worked and it was really close to the beach so I really can’t complain about that. My son was able to go in the pool and other than that it was an OK property and if else fails, I would stay here again. overall was a quiet day. I had no problems with any of the neighbors or any of the sounds of traffic that other reviews said this was just a simple place to stay at you pay for what you get so obviously I really can’t complain.

Cons:

The front desk staff were really easy and let me check in pretty early but as far as the cleaning staff, they were pretty rude. I had a problem with my key, and I asked the lady if she could help me and she was pretty much annoyed, but that was just overall the only experience I had that was wrong with the staff. The flooring inside my hotel room was a little messed up and the sheets were a little stained, but I did bring my own blankets and sheets and never really slept on that and I normally do that with every hotel so I didn’t really mind..
