I have a LOT to say. First off, don’t book here. The pictures are NOTHING like what you actually get. While yes, a little dated but close to the beach, I said why not. Well… when we got there, the lights weren’t working well, dirty, the TV didn’t work, the wifi didn’t work, there was no hot water the entire stay. The room looks run down and unkept. Broken outdoor future that looks like they were trashed hand-me-downs… time of operation is incorrect on website. No manager on property all weekend… no sense of urgency, then there was a massive fight going on at 6:30am not allowing us to sleep, then someone reprimanding a dog “ supposedly it’s a service dog” next to the door, someone smoking “grass” in or around the room which the smell seeped into our room. This was a horrible experience. If I could give negative stars I would. Not sure where these “great stay” reviews are coming from because this is NOT it. All they have going for them is that they’re walking distance from the beach. I’m waiting to hear from someone to let me know if they would minimum refund me for a nights stay due to the circumstances listed above…

The pictures online are AI edited. The rooms are in poor condition, and not very clean. The fan had two out of four blades, the tv sucked. The stove was broken, and the walls are so thin. A family of about 7 people stayed next to us screaming all night long. It was probably one of the worst hotels I ever stayed at. I think it’s for sale, they need to knock it down. No shade to the front desk receptionist she was polite. She allowed me to choose the room. I said It was fine at first glance, but it really wasn’t. If you’re gonna stay here, bring your own towels because they only give you one.

We checked in and only had 1 towel. That was ok for the 1st night since i typically pack extra towels from home. There was used soap left in the shower. When i went to the front desk to request and extra towel...the lady at the desk acted like i was not a guest at the hotel. She asked which room i stayed in and i told her. She told me i could fo find the housekeeper to get me a towel. i never found the housekeeper and never got an extra towel the remainder of my trip. :( Disappointing service.

The tv did not work at all , the shower was clogged with the water coming out with filth on our feet. Really out dated and not pleasant stay at all , no way to communicate

The location was great however the place was awful. Used underwater found in the room. Didn’t want to sit on anything. The tv was a joke. Like a computer monitor or something. The ceiling fan had an inch thick of dust on it. Do not waste your money.

Muy mala experiencia – no lo recomiendo

Tuvimos una experiencia sumamente negativa en este hotel. Las condiciones de las instalaciones distan mucho de lo que se muestra en las fotos publicadas en Hoteles.com; es evidente que requieren una actualización urgente o, al menos, una representación más honesta. Además, lo más grave fue que abrieron paquetes de compras en línea que recibimos y sustrajeron artículos de su interior. El hotel no ofreció ninguna explicación ni asumió responsabilidad alguna por lo sucedido. Definitivamente no recomendaría este lugar y espero que tomen medidas para mejorar tanto la seguridad como la transparencia en su oferta de hospejade

The property has indoor plumbing , hot water, a friendly front desk. Only someone at desk from 10 am-6 pm. Mold in shower, A/C did not work, bedspread was stained, only 1 burner on the stove worked, needed to wash everything. The refrigerator worked. The room needs to be updated badly. The A/C dripped water even though it did not cool the room. The paint was peeling off the wall due to the leaking A/C unit. Very close to beach and broadwalk. The room was cheap.

Friendly staff, great location, simple hotel. Kitchenette is a bonus for avoiding restaurants all the time. Pay attention to the check in! The office closes at 6:30 pm and you can’t get in after that. Overall would recommend if you want a simple clean room with fantastic access to Hollywood beach and the boardwalk
