    There were visible drug users hanging out around our room. There were people using drugs feet from the establishment.

    I stayed 1 night with my family. Overall it was pleasant and close proximity to boardwalk and resorts casino. I would stay here again.

    The staff was the best part.

    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!

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    Did not like anything at all Sheets were stained with blood- parking advertised with room but had to pay $20 - one room had different “friends” in and out all night (drugs) - parking lot was a struggle small and compact hard to maneuver in and out- bed was horrible- toilet seat didn’t fit toilet - room was dirty- nightstands had burn marks- headboard had holes - no safe- chain to door was broken - horrible experience - when asked to change blood stained sheets was yelled at and had to argue before they would change them which the. Took 1/2 hour. - recipe said $100 refundable deposit - front desk said that was not a thing-

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    There was coffee available. I did not see much else.

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    Place was really dirty, asking for anything was like pulling teeth. Parking was absolutely horrible. Charged extra to park. Like i didnt walk here. Just all around hole in the wall kinda place. But then again the entire beach was like that.

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    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.

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    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.

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    It was peaceful

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Considering it was a Saturday night and the location was a block from the boardwalk. It was an amazing deal. The room was bigger than we expected, very clean and they even had water and coffee available 24 seven. Very nice staff as well Outside is a bit shabby & you have to pay $20 extra for parking.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Very outdated. Room wasn’t cleaned. My room had dirty socks in the closet, hair on the shower walls, dirty bed skirt. Tv was off the wall and just sitting on the table & the mini fridge was mildew-ish. Oh let’s not forget the bed. Very uncomfortable very much old,and had a dent inside.
