This place is not as advertised. Its pretty much a mattress on the floor with 2 thin pillows. There was no place to sit. The place was very noisey. There are a lot of drug addicts and very sketchy people hanging around there.There is no parking there. We didnt even stay.We checked in and then checked out. No refund was offered. They just told us that it was our fault for not reading the reviews. You are better off sleeping in the car. Don't waste your time or money by going to this place. You will be disappointed. I could not rate this place a zero star or I would have.

It appeared clean at first, but everything is old and worn, and then I noticed the bedside table had clearly not been cleaned. It felt very sketchy in the area and around the hotel. Locals I spoke to could not believe I was staying there. Avoid.

Not much to like.!!! No cable TV, Wifi has a poor connection, some staff I heard talking about their customers. Very dull place to stay. I really wouldn’t recommend this hotel to anyone. Needs to have cable tv and less chatter about their customers, why Expedia would recommend this hotel for anyone’s stay is beyond me.

Looks like a rundown apartment. Not in a good location and wiring is visible and doesn’t look safe. It smells musty the tv doesn’t work, bathroom is smaller than a portable toilet deck and rooftop is very dirty and not maintained. The parking space can hold maybe 4 cars. But it was cheap

the place was in the middle of renovation so construction dirt and noise depending on which part of the building staff seems hard working but not professional very shady characters staying in the property we got one small used soap bar and had to ask for another one internet signal is week, not coffee machine or kettle to make tea, but there is a small fridge and microwave shower is decent and water pressure is good beds were comfortable and clean area is close to boardwalk (25 min walk) with few delis/cafe's and bars I would only recommend if you are travelling and trying to keep accommodation costs to a minimum and are not planning on spending anytime in hte motel except to sleep (not table/chairs/etc in the room and I got the premium room) for additional $25/night you can get much nicer places
