Dont stay here!

It was one of the nastiest rooms ive stayed in, in 20 yrs. Outdated, cheap, ragged look and worn everything. Sheets didnt look clean so much i almost slept in my car. I didnt know what kind of bug was in there but i left the lights on and kept my bags on the bed. The cheap chinese dresser wasnt even sturdy enough for me to put my backpack on without tipping over. Wish i had time to get another place that night but i had to be somewhere 2 hrs after i checked in. The peephole had a wad of toilet paper in it. Standards are bottom line only there and i doubt theyd remodel unless threatend by corporate. Any fixure was old and peeling. Safe was rusty and out in the open.

I get it it’s cheap and I don’t mind that as long as I can walk to the beach. But it was very loud a few times. People arguing at 3:00 in the morning. Then sheriffs beating on their door at 5:09 in the morning. Stayed there many times for location and cost. Staff is always friendly. Just a bad outing this time
