The place was quiet, and the bed was comfortable. The cleanliness is what I wasn’t happy about, the floors, walls, and bathroom were dirty. If the cleanliness was better I would have given it a good rating.

Room 108, 2 queen beds, a mini fridge, a mini microwave, tv, front door closes but has an opening on the bottom which “can” allow bugs crawl in. Bathroom was clean and simple: shower has excellent/strong water pressure, I took my own towels, used hotel towels for the floor. Basic room to shower, sleep and s..t. Parking is tight, you want to arrive early. It’s 1.5 miles to the boardwalk, a 34 minute walk each way on flip flops.
