From the moment we arrived, the experience was profoundly unprofessional and unsanitary, raising serious concerns about both the cleanliness and management of the establishment.

Our stay began with a concerning safety hazard: the air conditioning unit cover fell off upon arrival. We immediately reported this to the front desk, asking that it be cleaned. Despite an apology and a promise of immediate attention, no one addressed the issue. Furthermore, upon showering, we discovered the presence of black mold in the shower corners, a serious health concern.

Given these unacceptable conditions, we asked for a full refund and checked out to seek alternative accommodations. While the manager was unavailable, the front desk staff initially assured us that a refund would be processed. However, subsequent attempts to follow up on this promise through Expedia and direct contact with the inn have been met with complete disregard. Expedia reported that the inn was unresponsive to their calls. After we secured alternative lodging, our attempts to contact the inn to confirm the refund were met with our phone numbers being blocked, both mine and my friends. The inn's subsequent response of only answering one call, then blocking the number, is completely unacceptable.

The blatant disregard for guest safety, health, and well-being, compounded by the subsequent attempts to avoid accountability, is astonishing. The presence of black mold presents a significant health risk, and the failure to

Great despite mixed reviews - Would return

We were a bit unsure at first because the reviews were all over the place, but we were pleasantly surprised! The hotel is in an amazing location—just a 2-3 minute walk to the beach and centrally located on the pier. Everything was very clean, relatively new, and the staff were extremely friendly and welcoming. The only downside is the limited paid on-site parking, but there are plenty of public lots nearby. Overall, a great stay—and we would definitely return!

There was no parking, I parked in parking lot across the street for $20 till night and then look for parking, although the hotel listed that there’s parking on site - NOT.

Got to the room and needless to say, as pictures show - there’s MOLD - ceiling is covered in MOLD, also there’s MOLD in shower.

There were no towels, no soap. I went down to front desk to get some towels and perhaps get a different room, but the doors were locked to front desk - there was nobody there. I called the number posted on the door to ask for some towels and soap, they told me that they would bring some over - it took 2 hours and there was no soap, just towels…

I understand that this is a 2 star motel, but putting guests up in a room with MOLD - really?

Definitely NOT a place I would recommend

Got to hotel, there was no parking, I asked the front desk person about parking and he told me that there are 2 spots but I couldn’t park there because I would block a jeep of a guest who checked out and they won’t be able to get out because I would block them, so the front desk person suggested I park in parking lot across the street for $20 till night and then park in hotel parking if there were spots - I had no choice and did that.
By the way the next day when I checked out the same Jeep was still there with 2 spots in front of it.

All Around AWFUL, DO NOT STAY HERE

I read reviews before deciding on a place to stay and either people lied or something happened since they we wrote but our stay was awful. Check in time was 4pm however the room wasn't ready (I was traveling with 3 small children under 5 so this was unacceptable). Finally got in the room. it was clean however there were only 2 towels and no wash clothes or bat mat for 6 people. Requested more towels and wash clothes, didn't receive them so had to request them again. No hot water in the shower (again 3 small children so this was totally not okay). No one was ever in the office so you had to try to track them down or call a number that they didn't answer. (we also saw multiple other guests having issue with this. Was never once offered anything for all our troubles it was just sorry this is happening, it shouldn't be. I will NEVER recommend or stay here again. They did have a sign that said if you wrote a good review they would extend your stay an hour later for check out so am assuming that's how they got good reviews.

Way too over priced and only bc it was July 4th. I can understand alittle higher rate… this is a 200/night at the most…. Not 800
Crazy insanity! And if it is 800 for the night NO PARKING I had to pay additional for parking??? And ask for soap?? And have a dirty bathroom…. They slap some fabuloso on the floor so it smells clean but very dirty….never again!!!!

Internet was poor. Could not watch tv most of the time due to that. That was the big issue.
Also we had one was cloth between the two of us and no hand towel. The man was around replenishing towels etc.. asked me if I needed something and I asked for wash cloths and he gave me everything but that!
I will say people at the front desk did try to help me as best they could. I think the Internet needs upgraded for that amount of people who stay there.
I would not go back there for those reasons nor recommend it.

The pictures online of this hotel are misleading. The room we stayed in looked nothing like it did online and we feel like we were scammed by this place.
There was black mold in the bathroom and the was a weird substance in the air conditioner.
We slept in our car because the smell was overwhelmingly strong and we checked out after our first night there even though we booked it for 3 nights.
When we attempted to check out the hotel manager tried to bribe us into not making a negative review and insulted us when we told him that we wanted to check out.
We came to seaside with our 2 year old and had to sleep in the car on friday night because of the mold and insects.
We couldnt be more disappointed with this experience.

Stayed for 2 nights and would never stay here again. Staff was polite but not helpful. My mattress did not have a cover on it. I asked for one within 5 minutes of checking in. I was told 30 mins. Never came. Went to the office several times and finally got it after complaining at 9pm that i could not put my kids to bed. The floor in the room was dirty, did not look like it was swept or mopped. The towels had stains on them. I always bring my own so it was not an issue but disgusting to look at. There is no elevator which sucked having 2 toddlers and being on the 3rd floor. The surrounding area was nice very close to boardwalk and rides.

Words cannot express how horrible this place is from A to Z. I booked the Motel for two nites and had to check out the next morning. Besides the room was extremely dirty like it was never cleaned however they used some kind of toxic cleaning chemicals with a very strong smell that gave us headache and also made the floor very slippery (dangerously slippery) About 3AM somebody was trying to get into out room. Very loud and busy area.NOT SAFE! beside that watch out for parking spots (one car per room) $10 per nite for extra car $15 cash only. Extremely weird I could not pay by credit card nor get a recipe for extra parking spot. I contacted Expedia for refund after that horrifying experience NO LUCK I couldn't get my money back. I am absolutely disgusted by this place.

My family enjoyed this property. We got here a bit early before checkin and was able to park and walk to the beach while our rooms were getting turned over. They were able to get us checked in about an hour before checkin time and the room was clean. I read some of the reviews before staying and was a bit concerned but glad we did stay. Great place to stay. Staff was friendly. Rooms were clean (sister got a room as well, and also very clean). We also had a minor mishap with losing our car keys and the front desk was polite with letting us look around the facility even after check out and did not charge an extra fee while we waited for a locksmith. Great for families and will stay again.

The stay was good. The woman at the desk was polite and helpful. I feel like I gave the man a little heartache when I asked to leave my car for an hour in the morning, but he ultimately allowed it so I did appreciate that. My only complaint would be that the listing stated that there was breakfast and there wasn’t. I’m not sure whether that was bad filtering on Expedia’s part or if the owners listed it without actually providing the service. Overall it wasn’t a bad stay, lot of weed smell blowing in through our AC at night, but that’s not the hotels fault. I also woke up in a good mood so maybe it’s related. I would stay again for though it’s not a bad place to be.

The location was the only thing to like. In addition to the room being over prices because of the time of year when I checked in I was asked to pay an additional 10.00 for parking but if I moved my car from their lot I would lose my spot. So the parking is a hugh issue, the only other option is parking in the public lots at anywhere from 30 to 50 dollars a day. I would not recommend this place to anyone.

Mis-advertised as a boutique experience; door was kicked in and we felt unsafe and uncomfortable staying there with just a chain as a lock. Management tried to bully us into signing paperwork. Parking was only guaranteed if you chose to stay parked the entire time of your stay for additional charge so we left. No offer for another room, no refund.

Disappointed. Wasn’t expecting a 5 star hotel but this was a lot less then what I expected. First upon arrival( hour early) they already said they sold out of parking and had to pay an extra $20 to park in another lot. Tv would work for 3 minutes then freeze for minutes then work again and continued doing this back and forth . Shower sliding door was broken so floors would get wet when showering. Bed sheets were obviously not changed or washed. Had stains all over them. I’d pay the extra money to stay somewhere else

So apparently u get a spot but if u leave that won’t be your parking anymore. And alllll spots were taken.

This place was the most updated for the price. And they had the least reviews of bed bugs. None, in fact. That being said, there is very minimal parking and if you are lucky enough to get a spot on the property, you arent moving your car. Parking lot next to property was $20/day ($9/day parking and $11/overnight). Watch out because the parking lot attendants (not connected to the hotel) will try and hustle you prices. Be firm with them though and youll be fine. Anyways, no pool on the property. And in the room, while not a major issue, no hooks anywhere. No towel hooks, nowhere to hang any clothing to dry, which we found to be wildly necessary. The “breezeway” is just more of an access space with very little actual space for sitting or hanging out. Room did have small fridge/freezer and microwave. A/C worked great. Beds and pillows were comfortable. Water always hot/cold as needed. All outlets worked. Place was clean. Staff was friendly. There were cameras outside if security is an area of concern for you. Just a block and a half from the beach, if that. They have free wifi. Stayed 2 nights, in double king room, no towel service or new sheets or anything like that provided. Check in/out very smooth. Nice hotel as far as no noise, no odd smells and no late night partying. Overall, would recommend unless you prefer a pool and free parking during your stay.
