Good location close to beach and boardwalk. Property was clean but old. Some electrical outlets were worn. Got a room where you could see the ocean. Not true of all rooms. Caution Google picture showing a modern white building is NOT this inn.

Ideally situated close to the front, easily walkable. Good parking. Rooms clean, could do with some sort of hanging facilities for clothes (modern hanging rail would work), instead of huge cabinet on an angle taking up loads of room. TV better attached to the wall to give more space and smaller cabinet either under TV or situ somewhere else. Lacking in drink facilities, no coffee making, unless at reception? (Which we may have missed?) Air con very noisy in our room, but perhaps we were unlucky.

Great location. Short walk to beach and boardwalk. Small room and old property, noisy at night. No coffee makers in rooms. Older Model TV so we could not access our subscription services. The location and friendly staff are the best thing going for this hotel.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Our stay was extremely disappointing. The first room we were given had stains on every layer of the bedding. After requesting a new room, we found the second one wasn’t any better—stains on the sheets, black hair on every towel, and even in the bathtub. The shower had a visible layer of dust on top, which made it clear that cleaning and upkeep are not being taken seriously. This was by far one of the most unpleasant and unsanitary places I’ve ever stayed.

There were some strange characters staying at the motel not sure if it was being used as a half way house. There was a guy turn up in a van and parked in the entrance. i would not stay again, if you just want a cheap over nigher on t\our own as a male i think its doable
