I had a pleasant time at this motel. It has a pretty good price and is really close to where I needed to go. The owners were also very nice and accommodating during my stay there.

The price is too high for the condition the rooms are in. Very outdated.

Room was clean enough (average, at best); coffee maker didn’t work; food and drink on site - non existent - had to drive 3/4 miles just to get something decent to eat; no ice maker available; no laundry facilities. Staff was nice, ensconced in their fortified (cannot enter) tiny office behind thick glass panels. Should say something, huh?

If you are going to pay that much for this hotel, add a little to it and get the nicer hotel next to it. We could hardly sleep in the room, because all the noise from outside just get through the walls. Also, during the one night i spent there, I could not connect to the wifi. When I told the front desk, they told me I may have to go to the hallway to connect to WIFI. I needed the WIFI to do some work, I cannot do that in the hallway around 11 pm at night. Finally, it was a "fight" to get the shower knob to work the next morning.

I found a bedbug in my bed when I turned down the sheets. I tried to call the hotel, and nobody answered. Then I tried the chat option, but nobody responded. I will never stay in this disgusting hotel again.

Very convenient location , easily walkable to boardwalk. Quite an old facility , has had a few updates but needs a few more. owners were nice and friendly . Little things would help out this hotel a lot , like new bedspreads ,curtains , more pillows, enough towels and shampoos for everyone.

This place is amazing. “M” and the staff are so accommodating. My son and I came for a three night stay and it’s nothing but excellent. Recommend for the price and hospitality.

Love the basics. Room was open and not cluttered with massive amounts of unnecessary furniture.

The hotel was booked and paid by my dad with his credit card. By the time I reached there, she asked for my credit card with my name on it. I gave her my debit card which somehow didn’t work so I had to get cash to pay her. I just feel people don’t realize what others are going thru. All they want is their own convenience.
Also, there wasn’t enough soaps and shampoos, and when asked for some after 2-days, I was given only the shampoo, not the soap.
One thing was weirdly funny: the lever of microwave gets stuck so there’s a trick to open, close or start the microwave which, thank goodness, I understood the first day.

I love that it is so close to the Boardwalk. Bathroom needed to be cleaned better, add wash cloths, towels. Loved there was microwave, mini fridge, and coffee in the room. Great area and clean

Not the nicest looking place, but the rooms were great. Close to all the things you want to do.

We didn't like anything at this property. The towels were stain. There wasn't any wash rags. No cable or reception on the TV.
1.0
Management of the hotel is not very friendly, they overcharge....watch, they say you owe 80 then at the check out the next day you owe 279. You can only park certain way, otherwise the boss will either to move or repark. Handicapped parking is for employees only, dont bother parking next to the "check in" office........the staff takes them. Rooms are dirty, noisy and lack of supplies.

I THINK IS NOT NORMAL THAT A MOTEL DOESN'T HAVE ICE MACHINE GOR THEIR GUESTS
3.0
It’s very noisy. You can hear the street noise and the noise from the other rooms. In addition, I selected 4 guests in my quote. Once we got our bill, we had to pay an additional fee of $75 for anything above 2 guests. I am sure it’s in the ‘fine print’ somewhere…. But I want to warn others now! The one good thing was that it’s walking distance to the Boardwalk.
2.0
The on-site personal are super nice and friendly. Absolutely wonderful people. Walking distance to the beach. The bed needs to be replaced very lumpy not uncomfortable just squeaky.
2.0
Down the street from Boardwalk & around the corner from Downtown
1.0
No hairdryer in the room.
No river view, we had a car in front of our window & door.
We hear everything between rooms (above & on the side).
Wait a long time to be checked in (40mns).

The motel was a clean place to stay just to sleep. Close the boardwalk and beach. Staff were friendly.
3.0
This hotel is very old. I would have thought it was closed if I didn’t knock on the window of the office. The staff was very friendly, though.
3.0
I liked the proximity to the boardwalk and beach. I didn’t like that not even the trash cans were emptied the whole time during my stay. I was told that it was due to Covid. No maid service. Loud AC, but it was a decent visit at this hotel. The people at the feeding desk were very helpful and friendly.
3.0
It was very nice. The room was very clean and the owners very polite. It was the cheapest room we could find, and we had read some negative reviews so we were a little cautious, but those reviews are wrong. This is a very nice, clean, comfortable place.
1.0
Clean, but hot water was limited. Also, the room that we were assigned did not have a door to the bathroom.
Your car is subject to be blocked-in as the owner rents parking spots for $40 to visitors to the Boardwalk.
A woman was screaming next door, where her and her companion were fighting. Although the front desk was called, the fighting continued for several hours.
2.0
I was disappointed to see that there was no lobby I could enter. It was an outside window. The room was clean but the entire motel just seemed old, worn, and really in need of updates. The couple who ran the motel were nice enough but I wouldn’t stay there again. I thought for $211.00 I should’ve had a nicer place to stay in Santa Cruz
3.0
Pretty good location and affordable accommodation. Pretty basic, not the best facilities, and perhaps a bit tired.
4.0
The room was clean and the staff was pleasant. It was what I needed, a clean room to sleep in. Nothing fancy and lower price. It is close to a busy road. Easy access to the River Walk.

Simple, Nice stay here.

Poor lightning in the room, no lamps at all. Previous guests used soap still in the shower. Limited desk availability and unfriendly check in. Could be much better.
