    No parking (which wasn’t advertised on the website) check in was 4pm however if you want parking at the hotel.. you better get there a day early or 6am day of and you can’t move your vehicle. WiFi did not work, no hot water for shower.. asked front desk for an extra roll of toilet paper and extra towels (we were giving 1 large towel and a small towel for a family of 3) and was told she would bring them over after the rain let up. Which was about 40 mins later and I don’t find that acceptable. Room was small- not much room to maneuver

    For the most part, my stay was fine. When we first got there, there was no parking at all. There was about 5 spots total for the entire motel to park at. Most of the time, you had to park in the parking lot next door, which made you pay $10. The actual motel also made you pay $10 to park there, and if you left you had to pay an extra $10. Other than the parking, the stay was decent. The room was clean and smelled fresh. The bathroom wasn’t dirty, but you can tell it hasn’t been deep cleaned in a while. Everytime we called the front desk for toilet paper, or towels, or something it took an hour for them to bring it. And most of the time, you had to call twice because they forgot. The beds also weren’t the best. I probably don’t recommend to stay here.

    Close to the boardwalk and beach.

    There were no soap bars by the sink. The room did not look like the pictures. The bottom of the shower door is broken. The shower doors still slide open and shut but be careful to not put your weight on the shower door to keep your balance or you might end up on the floor.

    The person at the front desk was nice. The room was clean.

    The shower only had one glass pane so water got all over our bathroom floor. There were spots of black mold on the ceiling and base boards by the beds. Other than that we loved the property.

    We loved the location to the beach and the boardwalk

    To start , I have never in my life, stood at a place where the owner or manager stood outside of my car to see how many people were checking in with me.. once inside he asked me AGAIN how many people were in the room with me 3 or 4..?? Like I’m sorry what lol. I PAID for 2 queen size beds not sure why I’m being asked this . The owner was very rude . You have to pay $10 for parking (and cannot leave and return, once it’s parked it stays until checkout unless you pay for parking elsewhere) The bathroom had a shower door missing so water went everywhere when we showered. The floors were DIRTY. Just from placing the floor towel down it was BLACK on the bottom. Other than that. It was a roof over our head and close to our destination. I will not be back to this hotel.

    The only good thing about this motel was the location being close to the boardwalk.

    The time it took to check in. One of the guests staying had arrived before me and the manager told them they would have to leave. He was rude to them and made my friend from out of town feel uncomfortable.

    We were there for about 4 days and they never cleaned our room , we had to ask for towels and toilet paper, they charged you 10.00 more per day for a parking spot that wasn't your spot if you moved , so if I went to Dunks for a coffee and came back someone else could park there and i would lose the spot, even though i paid for it .

    It was clean

    Good. A small room and bathroom for a very short stay. It was all we needed. 99.00 room but with taxes, property fees (30.00) and $10 for parking we felt there might of been more luxury:)

    Clean but not pristine.

    The only thing I’d rethink next time is staying on the 3 rd floor ( I requested 3rd floor this stay). The stairs were a bit much

    Staff was very friendly and accommodating The room was clean. There was some on site parking and a paid lot right next door. The motel was a one minute walk to the boardwalk. There was plenty of restaurants within walking distance of the motel and the neighborhood was quiet, clean and safe to walk after dark
