The Internet went out off and on the TV went off and on, and had no key to the bottom lock and had to call maintenance twice going into my own room and usually they’re very good responsible people, but I don’t know what’s going on. It’s not my first time staying there had to put tape on the door so I wouldn’t lock so I didn’t lock myself out. The people were very nice, but

This is a rundown motel from the 50’s that advertises itself as “the villas”. The towels had holes in them and we only got one bath towel for two of us (with holes). They allow smoking all over the place. Our next door neighbors smoked non stop. So did the property manager.
The part of the boardwalk adjacent to the property has no decent bars or restaurants. For half a K for two nights, you can stay away from the ocean (which had a seaweed problem) and be in the real hotel

Great proximity to the beach but the rooms are small and outdated. The bed was comfortable and the outdoor seating area was a nice add on, however this property is more like a motel with studios/suites vs. a villa.
Parking is very limited but there are meters on the street, along with a parking decks. If you are unable to park in one of the designated areas, let the office staff know so that you can get reimbursed for the daily fee. The staff was very courteous but the office would randomly be closed throughout the day even though their instructions say that the staff is available from 9am - 5pm.

The place was not clean, there was a half full red solo cup on the kitchen counter and a VERY nasty dish sponge. We turned around and left the property. When we asked for a refund we were told there is no refund. BEWARE of this place.

This place was a dump. The personnel checking me in was drunk. It was a late booking due to cancelled flight and no way to get a hold of management to check-in… the voicemail box was full. I had to roam the property hoping to find an employee and he was able to reach the drunk manager via a mutual friend. A 40 minute nightmare only to be let into a total dump.

Was very disappointed in my stay here. Starting off I called the front desk let them know we got off our cruise early an were hoping to check in early if possible ,they stated people check out at 11am an could be ready by around 12pm so we came she was nice let us leave bags by counter so we're thinking okay this is good. By 1pm we still had no room an others that were checking in after us were already in rooms so I inquired what was going on she didn't say anything. We left came back 3pm an still not room she stated they had not cleaned it yet there was a mix up. So then we get in the room by 4:05 an seemed dirty the pull out bed in living room was broken, had a fridge an stove top which was nice an coffee pot(no filters or coffee) . The bathroom had hair an dust all over was just very filthy . We made it work for one night but will never book with this place again. An other reviews showed bed bugs. The place has potential but needs to be seriously updated an deep cleaned .

Towels should be accessible at all times without complications for returning them.. The place is not dirty. However, there are people who steal things if they are left outside. For example, my new large beach towel was stolen when I left it to dry in the sun on a chair in front of the door in the morning. The lady at the desk replaced it for me, but I just wanted to let you know that there are people who take things.

This is not our first time staying here, and that’s exactly why we booked it again—we loved it so much the first time! The place was spotless once again, and even though it’s a bit dated, it still perfectly captures that relaxed, beachy vibe we’re always looking for on vacation. It’s in a great location—right between the airport and the cruise port. Plus, it’s just a short walk to the beach, and there are fantastic restaurants and entertainment nearby. We’ll definitely be back if it’s available!

This is a cost effective way to be super close to the beach and boardwalk. Be aware that some of the rooms are very dated and the pull out beds are more like springs only. Rooms 3,4,7,8, 9, 10 are good. I wouldn’t recommend 21 or 22. They don’t seem to clean them as well and the pull out couch needs replacing. My white socks were black after walking on the floor the night we arrived 😬
The staff is friendly, check in and check out are easy and the parking is super cheap compared to the garage across the street. I would stay again but be specific about the room I book.
