Despite being in a rough spot of town, staff was friendly. It appeared they were updating some rooms. Room smelled a little funky. Beach and boardwalk were a stones throw away. Would not necessarily recommend staying with young children. But we were never bothered. By other guests or people in the neighborhood.

Convenient for the Boardwalk and located close to Resorts, I was impressed by this property. Room was clean and well lit. Both room and bathroom appeared to have been recently refurbished. Checkin was efficient and staff friendly. Little external noise and the outside areas were clean and well maintained.

Location was perfect for what we needed, and staff was welcoming. HOWEVER, after only being in the room for 10min, we saw a cockroach crawl across the small table. After that we searched the rest of the room, moving tables, refrigerator, stands, etc. We did not see anymore bugs but everything was filthy with food, dirt, etc. lastly, I was disappointed that you had to pay to park at the hotel. That may have been in the description and I just missed it, but either way you have to pay 20 a day to park on the property!

This hotel was horrible! Not clean at all. Not to mention, wholes and black stains on the bedsheets. The shower floor had black marks. The towels provided smells like moldy water. We had to buy towels from the boardwalk to use. We requested a non smoking room (which we were given) but it wrenked of heavy cigarette smell.
