Well, not the worst place I've ever been. That's about as positive as I can get here, though. Wait, another positive -- the bed wasn't crawling with bedbugs like other reviewers have mentioned. That's because they were all dead and the bug carcasses were just lying on the sheets. How about a cheap $10 rolling desk chair in the room as the only seat, but with one of the legs broken off? Or beds that have only bottom sheets and dust covers, and nothing else? Or a toilet that's so low to the ground, it was probably made for an elementary school? No support under one side of the shower/tub, so it feels like you're about to break through to the lower room? I guess you get what you pay for. Also, very noisy full-time residents. The office for the complex is closed and being used as a bedroom by someone. So, you have to walk to the neighboring one to check in and out. I could actually keep going on and on, but somehow, this WASN'T the worst place I've ever stayed in, so I'll skip telling you about the off-season pool filled with garbage and crime scene tape, or the permeating odor of cigarette smoke that probably will never leave my jacket. And yet, there's more. I'll just say it's not recommended.

Not the worst hotel. Comfy beds. Hot showers and no bedbugs. Stumbling distance from the bars. All good in my book!

Fantastic for the price

For the price, this is a great hotel. There are no frills, so don't expect anything amazing but again for the price this is a great hotel. Beds are comfortable, you get a small fridge and a microwave and plenty of room. On top of that, you are walking distance to great restaurants and the boardwalk which also has some things open (it was winter when I stayed and VERY windy and cold). Anyone who does not give this hotel a good rating is expecting the Taj Mahal for dollar store rates. I will be going back in a few weeks for mandatory vacation my job has me taking.
