Anchor Motel

This is my second year staying here. It's only a few blocks away from the boardwalk and 7-11 is conveniently located a street in front. I also love that it's right next to the police station in case something were to happen they're very close. The gentleman that are there to check us in are always friendly and very nice. We ended up staying in the same room both years and it was clean and very comfortable. I travel with a friend amd our teen daughters take the one bedroom and us mom's sleep in the front room with the door.

The last day we were there this year my friend ended up wanting to extend our stay, and we were told we had to switch rooms. Which was not a problem at all because we understood others had booked ahead of us. We were told to wait in the room until the one we were moving into was cleaned. My friend got charged a late check out fee of $50 which we were not told about nor aware of. We would have taken our belongings out of the room and waited in the car for the switch had we known. Sneaking the extra charge in there was a bit rude without informing us about it. We were told by the woman at the counter to wait in the room, so we shouldn't have been charged the fee. We were solely doing what she asked of us. My friend paid for 1 night what I had paid for 2 nights and we were shifted into a smaller room with less beds. Also just because it was a Saturday night into Sunday. Definitely making sure I don't book my stay over the weekend next year. I know lots of places charge more for weekends, but more than double for a smaller room and less beds was a bit sad.

It's an old fashioned mom and pop motel.( which I like). Pool is clean. Staff are nice. Room is clean. Has AC and is close to the beach.

They don't have or serve coffee and the bathroom is cramped.

Location was great! I was able to park my car for the weekend but still had access if I needed to use it or get something!

Little run down

The location was great. They allowed us to check in early and leave at 10:30 rather than 10. Nice that they have a pool area. They also lent us some umbrellas because there was a storm. They let us leave some bags in the lobby, but told us not to leave any valuables in the bags.

This may be silly, but the comforters made me uncomfortable. The material and pattern were odd. But at the end of the day, the sheets seemed clean. They didn't have any drinking water in the lobby.
