We used to stay here all the time for a couple reasons: location and price. However, the last experience was the final straw. My friend had her bike stolen that was locked up 20 feet from our room on the night of our final stay (which tells me someone saw it there the previous day). Also, the walls are paper... More

Good quiet location - 5 mins walk to board walk & 10 min to downtown. Room was clean, no frills. Had TV and fridge. Bed was comfortable and we slept well on the one night we stayed there. Service was OK. More

We've stayed here a number of times over the years. The rooms aren't fancy but they're clean, and they have a TV and mini-refrigerator. And the beds are comfortable, which is very important to me. It's just a couple of blocks from the beach and the Boardwalk. There's usually adequate parking, and the management is very pleasant. They've been upgrading... More

Great location - 5 mins walk to the Boardwalk, 10 min to the Downtown. Room was clean, bathroom freshly renovated with big shower. We stayed in weekdays so the price was very good. Truly recommend to those who don't expect a 5* hotel standard :) More

This motel looks the smartest in the area, it is freshly painted with nicely kept gardens and a clean, heated pool. The decor in the rooms is a bit elderly, but our room was spotlessly clean, spacious, and the bed was very comfortable. We thought this end of town looked run down and a bit dubious but we had pre-paid,... More

This was the worst hotel by far in our 2 week trip across California. Horrible decor, poor quality fittings, dodgy electrics, terrible bathroom. I could go on. Just don't stay here. More

The first thing I noticed when I walked in the door were the styrofoam cups...for $200 per night they can't even provide real glasses?! Also, there was no clock/radio, no kleenex, no coffee pot, no shampoo, towels like sand paper and no extra rolls of toilet paper left in the bathroom should you run out. I was quite perturbed to...

You get what you pay for and this place is PERFECT as far as location goes. It's right behind the boardwalk and about a 10 min walk to downtown. Not the greatest place to stay, but if you're just looking for a place to sleep, it legitimate. Look on Expedia. for the best deal on the room and if you... More
