Pros (+) Pay a couple of extra bucks and stay somewhere else
Cons (-) Poor service, room moldy, air conditioner filter filthy, list goes on
Pros (+) Proximity to beach and boardwalk
Cons (-) The most outdated, dirty and uncomfortable place I have EVER stayed at
Pros (+) The location is great not much else
Cons (-) The hotel itself is probably 60 years old with little to no updates. The staff is not very friendly and they have a no visitor rule; they charge 20 per person per night after two this includes children. The pictures featured are deceiving such as the bathroom being much smaller (and damaged) than the picture. The owners are unfriendly and hover over guests, making sure they follow the rules.
Pros (+) Convenient location. Booking online was easy. Cable TV.
Cons (-) Couldn't open/close the front door without slamming because the wood was warped. TINY bathroom. Really loud A/C that barely blew any cold air. Uncomfortable bed.
Pros (+) Super close to the beach. Had the facilities we needed (fridge, microwave, bed and shower). Lowest price available.
Cons (-) Super small, pool was gross, looks NOTHING like the photos. Short summery: perfect for a dirt cheap beachside motel. If you're a family, save up a few more bucks and go somewhere better.
