The room isnt clean enough. And the non smoking room smells, we have to buy out own spray. Wish I booked a hotel closed to the beach. It was almost the same price. Í wasn’t comfortable sleeping here, glad I always go home late and tired and just take melatonin to sleep right away.

It is your average hotel room. I would not expect much. My boyfriend and I had to heavily clean the room, so beware of that. Also, the room smelled of smoke even though it was "non-smoking". I recommend you invest in candles and plug-ins for the duration of your stay. The location is about 13 minutes away from the beach by car, so that was a plus for us.

This place is in a great location. But it's run down. The bathroom was clean...but the cold water was hot and the hot water was cold. The shower turned out without me turning it on. The furniture in my room was pretty raggedy. I had my 2 youngest daughters with me. I did not feel safe.

Although it was a smoking room it reeked terribly of smoke. The bathroom had an exposed hole of some sort on the wall, the bathtub was disgustingly filthy! It wasn’t cleaned very well and the television only played 1 channel which was ME TV! The stairs leading to the upper levels need to be repaired as my wife and I both fell up them due to the tile being raggedy! Also, Expedia quotes you one price however the hotel charges you something totally different! I would’ve NEVER paid 99.00 per night for an Econo Lodge I would’ve went back to the Red Roof Inn which was much cheaper and in better condition! I will NEVER stay here again!

NOT A PLACE FOR YOUR FAMILY
There was a SPERM stain on the comforter (see picture and you decide!). Did not stay. The manager refunded only half of our money. There were crumbs on the beds. I don’t think they even clean this place. Disgusting sorry excuse for a hotel. Others were complaining about water leaking into their room. We ended up driving home after our long day at a conference instead of staying. The toilet seat doesn’t even fit on the toilet! And overall we were scared to stay here. Seems to be in an unsafe location. Worst place ever.
You tell me what this is on the comforter when we got into the room!
A toilet seat doesn’t cost that much but they can’t even get that right!

The worst experience ever. The ceiling was leaking (we were on the second floor). They moved our room and that one was worse it had dirty towels and a diaper and baby socks in the bed when we pulled the comforter back. The lady was nice but this hotel needs to be condemned

Surprisingly decent
The outside looks run down but the room was nice. It was nice to not have carpet in the room. The beds were really comfortable BUT in the bathrooms it was not cleaned properly as there was a red spot on the toilet seat. Disgusting. Just come with Your own cleaning supplies and Lysol spray and other than that it was fine. Oh to mention in June 2021 they're not offering any type of breakfast either sit down or to go

Not only was animal hair all over the room, I pulled the sheets back on the bed and it was all in the bed as well. Although the associate was polite, all she offered was some new bedding covers. I refused to stay because that was a red flag that the room hadn’t been cleaned at all. This was very unsanitary and a terrible experience.
