Very clean but not in good repair. First room, toilet ran constantly and did not flush, second smelled horribly from a special cleaner they were using, third room, which we took had all towel racks broken off & not toilet paper holder, but otherwise acceptable for a night's stay. Close to boardwalk & beach.

Do not stay here!! We left, we rather drive home even though we were tired. The room smelled, stained pillow cases with hair, looked like they didn’t change the sheets, the beds are horrible, the restroom door looked like someone punched there way out, the shower was stained looked dirty. The window wood shutters were broken/missing someone could easily look inside. Disappointed paid
