Hotel was not what was in the pictures on Expedia do not be fooled by this place although it is a good location and staff is pretty friendly. This is probably the worst hotel I have ever stayed at , common areas are very dirty room has mold Old no shower water pressure musky odor and extremely dated. The air conditioning unit is old and barely works. Fan stopped working an hour after we got here and the toilet barely works .Looks like the last update was back in the 80s.. was going to go to another hotel but there were none available. Stayed here one night would not recommend this place to anyone. I know this review sounds a bit extreme, but hopefully it gets someone’s attention and people are not misled by the reviews on Expedia, pretty sure these were not verified or the people that wrote the tens had no standards at all. If you want real reviews on this place, go to Google wish we would’ve went there first they need to clean this place up.

The only pro is its close to the beach otherwise the hotel itself is very outdated. The room was extremely small with very limited space, and the hotel lacked basic amenities. The property felt outdated and not modern at all. Overall, it did not meet expectations for the price or comfort.

Never have I ever had anything removed from my hotel room. On back to back nights we had items removed from our room by the cleaning staff. One of the items was found, the other a sentimental item that unfortunately was not recovered. Pretty upset that happened and put a damper on the trip.

The only nice thing to say about this hotel is the location. The hotel is so tacky and worn that you become completely sad. That the owners are so dishonorable and indifferent to such a legendary hotel with such a unique address is completely incomprehensible. The hotel is run down, the carpets are worn and stained, the furniture is old and ugly and the TV doesn't work (they say they are working on it). In the restaurant, we had a pizza for lunch that obviously came straight from the freezer, because they had forgotten to finish baking it. Dishonorable and shameful! Stay away from this place.

IF I COULD GIVE THIS PLACE 0 STARS I WOULD! AWFUL EXPERIENCE- AVOID THIS PLACE AT ALL COSTS! I recently stayed at this hotel, and I am beyond disgusted and furious. Although it was the cheaper option and was located in a great location where everything happens. The experience was absolutely horrendous from the very beginning. First, they outright lie about check-in times. I was told over the phone that I could check in early before 12 for $90 or after 12 for $50. But when I arrived and tried to check in early, they completely reneged on their promise! Talk about unprofessional! Once I finally made it to my room, I was appalled. The room looked NOTHING like the pictures online—more like a rundown motel than a hotel! The phone in the room didn’t work, the TV remote was broken, and only a couple of the electrical outlets had any power. To top it off, there was mold on the shower ceiling and barely any space for clothes in the nonexistent closet. The elevator experience was one for the books—only capable of holding three people at a time, it was tiny and constantly malfunctioning. We were left stranded when they turned off the water due to a burst pipe and didn’t bother to notify any guests until we inquired. And let’s talk about the beds. They have BEDBUGS! I reported it to the front desk, and guess what? They didn’t even seem surprised! I arrived with no bites and left with multiple welts and skin irritations all over my body. After requesting a room transfer, I thought
