I enjoyed my stay! Very clean room and staff was very friendly and even let us check in early! Only downside was the parking and if you fail to get a spot you have to park in a alleyway behind.However, if you get a spot, its in a very walkable spot! 15 minutes away from downtown walking distance & 3 mins from boardwalk! Overall great, enjoyed it.

Location is perfect!!! Only thing that was bad is parking! If you can’t find parking in the lot they have extra in the alley way which was kind of sketchy. But besides that everything was great!!

Very old property in a noisy area . The beds we’re not the most comfortable, but overall the motel was clean and in a great location if you’re looking to be close to the boardwalk. Good for the price.

Very close to the beach and boardwalk which is why we chose it. VERY loud street noise and fireworks right behind the hotel. The pool is cold and so small they should take it out and add parking which is tight. The ice maker was not working. The breakfast is decent and the fridge in the room works well. The workers were nice. We chose it for location which is perfect.
