Great location, access directly to the boardwalk. The staff was friendly and helpful. Would not suggest if you enjoy quiet nights as there is a bar on the boardwalk below and you can hear the music in your room. The floors needed additional cleaning, they were dirty.

Room 120 is ‘In Da Club (downstairs)
Room 120 is loud; directly over the boardwalk restaurant/club and it smelled of cigarettes. We did not sleep; club music was going until 2AM. Request a different room. Other than that, the room was as expected for the price and the staff at checkin and checkout were friendly.

Older hotel. Liked how easy it is to get to the board walk. Staff was the most friendly hotel staff I have delt with. The room on the other hand was not nice, had a weird odor, there was someone’s food in the fridge, just didn’t feel clean at all. There was sand all over the floor when we got there. But overall ok stay

I used to go to OC every year growing up and this was my first time back in 18 years. Always liked staying on the boardwalk because of the conveniences. This establishment is older but was very clean and the bed was comfortable. The owner/manager was very pleasant and friendly as was the entire staff I interacted with.

It was very convenient for my kids and I to be close to the boardwalk. We were able to walk easily to the boardwalk and get things to eat and drink. We enjoyed being able to view the beautiful beach front and watch the other activities on the boardwalk right from our hotel balcony. The room is convenient for a two to three day stay. The pool was enjoyable as well. The staff members were friendly and helpful.

We stayed for a short weekend (2 night stay). Pros: convenient to boardwalk and beach; overall clean room, comfortable bed, clean pool. Cons: bathrooms were very old. Ceiling was peeling off and hanging, toilet seat was coming off, very loud music until 3 am both nights we were there. Lots of smokers sitting outside their rooms smoking so it was not possible for us as non-smokers to sit on our balcony. We were only there for 2 nights so it was acceptable but would not want to stay an entire week here. For the price we expected more.

Very disappointed in this property and will never stay here again. Check in is at 4 and when we got there at 4 our room was still not ready. We had to wait another 30 minutes until we were able to get into our room and weren't offered any kind of compensation for the inconvenience. Then once we got to the room it was very clear the floor wasnt vacuumed or mopped at all! The floor was covered in sand and dirt and under the bed hasn't been cleaned in a LONG time. The bathroom was dirty and missing ceiling panels which made it extremely hot in the bathroom and the shower had absolutely no water pressure at all. For a room that cost over $400 we were extremely disappointed and next time will pay the extra $100 to stay at a better hotel.
