Pros:

Staff is always friendly, elevators need service and king bed in our room was hard as a rock but otherwise was an enjoyable time. Would stay again if no other hotels were available on my dates

Pros:

Will NEVER stay here again. Housekeeping didn't show up at all one day and only showed up at 3pm on a second day, after I asked why I hadn't seen housekeeping for 2 days. Shower conditions were dangerous, no safety rails, no bathtub non slip mat.
Staff was unfriendly at best. Check in clerk was completely indifferent and hard to understand.

Pros:

We had an ocean front room on the 5th floor overlooking the boardwalk. The room was clean & the staff were very helpful. Shops & Dining within walking distance. The furniture in the room looks pretty rough, but the cost of the stay was reasonable. There is no coffee maker in rooms, but there is coffee all day in the lobby. I would stay again if opportunity arose.

Pros:

Only one elevator for vistors and staff, making the waits longer than necessary. Also, there is no parking at the hotel. You have to park at a lot a few blocks away.

Pros:

There were cockroaches crawling around the room and up the wall. We arrived at 11pm and checked in and went to the room to see how dirty it was. We immediately left for another hotel and they would not refund all my money after we didn’t stay. Very disgusting!

It’s not the best but not the worst!
Pros:

Room was clean, outdated décor. Bathroom was clean need to put plastic liner in shower. The floor gets wet and slippery when showering. The bed was comfy. Sheets were nice and clean and white. Had a pool view room which doesn’t have an outside balcony. The hallways smell terrible like weed. No coffee pot in the room. The pool is shaded all day so it’s freezing cold. Management is super friendly. Front desk depends on who is there. Housekeeping is not friendly at all! Overall not terrible. I would stay again.

Pros:

I would not recommend this property day to anyone to stay at. The rooms are outdated, the service from the staff was limited, our rooms were not clean or the dirty towels taken away for three days very limited parking. The pool is old and outdated. The staff, although some were helpful, there were others who were not so helpful. I think whoever owns this franchise needs to really update a lot of the rooms and pretty much everything in the hotel. We did get a refund because our rooms were not clean for three days and we had limited service from the staff. I would never stay at this hotel again. Thank you.

Beware
Pros:

Only thing good about this dump is the location. Worst thing is the parking, had to park 2 blocks away where the homeless lived. Property needs renovation, crack tiles and flooring. Pool was freezing and dirty. No breakfast, restaurant, or hot tub. Don’t waste your money!

Pros:

It was nice being on the beach. There were no towel bars in the bathroom, all the doors stuck, and the elevator was very very slow. Parking was offsite, but not far away.
