Underrated beachside motel After reading several scathing reviews of this place, I decided to try staying there for myself and I was pleasantly surprised. Clearly the poor reviews are coming from people who are accustomed to staying at much fancier, more expensive hotels. But for the value, it’s hard to beat its prime location right by the beach and boardwalk. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful with all of my questions and even gave me some great local restaurant suggestions. The room was clean and smelled clean. The shower had hot water, and yes the bathroom may be small but it wasn’t an issue for me. The room included a microwave and fridge and a TV. There is a typical window A/C and heater as well. I would absolutely stay here again.

Don't trust the Pictures I stayed here for an event based on its price and location, not expecting a luxury experience, but after seeing the pictures online, I thought it would be decent. Unfortunately, my expectations were far from met. The walk to my room on the 3rd floor was unsettling — it honestly felt like the floor could give way. Once I entered the room, the smell hit me immediately, a musty, abandoned-house kind of odor. The sofa was in poor condition, with visible cuts on the armrest. The door had noticeable gaps around the edges, allowing light and a draft to seep in, and it was dented all over as if it had been repeatedly punched. The worst part was the bed: it was broken, uncomfortable, and made awful crunching sounds every time I moved. It was so bad that we decided to check out early and drive home, even though it meant eating the cost of the room. If this is how the hotel is off-season, I can't imagine paying peak prices. This was a major disappointment, and I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone.
