I stayed a week with my girlfriend and we throughly enjoyed the stay. the staff was friendly to give me any needed towels or other things, the nice lady at the front desk let me check in early, and they always made sure to say hello. the room was perfect just a nice comfortable bed to sleep on in the night. sheets were a little dirty, and couldn’t figure out the tv but i’m not one to complain about small things. i enjoyed very much with an affordable price and so close to everything it was very convenient. the ac also got very cold making the room very nice after a long day. i would recommend

Do not recommend…

Tv remote was broken, room smelled very musty, blinds bent/ broke, gap in the door to our hotel room, dehumidifier in room didn’t work properly, bathroom was incredibly small, service was also not the best. After getting back from the beach it was 11:06, I asked if we could go into the room just to get changed and was told no check out is at 11. Which I understand but also at the same time, would have been a nice gesture just to let us get changed for our last day here. We had to go find a public bathroom and change in which was not near where we were. All around would not recommend this place to anyone unless you do not care about anything at all other then a place to lay your head down.

It’s a property where you get what you pay for. It’s definitely not a place to have your kids stay in. The area didn’t seem safe considering the entire parking lot was a hoodlem 17 year old obnoxious party. I was also weary of where I stepped in the parking lot… it def had a meth needle in the parking lot kind of vibe. The only thing that it really has going for it is its location. It’s conveniently a block from the board walk. I will definitely pay the extra money next time and find a more reputable hotel.

enjoyed our stay here room was clean not to a top five hotel standard but clean enough room was spacious enough for two of us staying for senior week. The hotel was right on the beach so it accommodated to all of our beach needs. We got the one bed single it came with a TV mini fridge, one dresser, one side table and a bathroom. This is a okay hotel if you’re looking to stay in OC for an inexpensive cheap option.

Ants everywhere.

The first night we came back from the boardwalk, set down a slice of pizza, used the bathroom, and when I went to pick the pizza up there was ants all over the side table and my food. We couldn't set any food or drinks down without ants all over them. We asked for bug spray but they didn't have any.

Not even a 0 out of 10.

The motel was dirty and filled with rusty everything. There were holes in the bathroom screen, the shower screws were rusty and old. The door hinges were rusty and old. The first room we were put into, the AC filter was unclean and the window wouldn't open. When they moved us to the second room, the AC filter was clean but you could see mold where the air was coming in. The bed was uncomfortable, the outlet close to the bed had mold everywhere and forget about the furniture. The dresser wouldn't close all the way. Now I don't expect perfection from a motel but the curtain for the only window was broken in certain areas so people outside could see inside no problem. Even though there was a no smoking sign for inside, there were guests smoking outside the apartment door. The door was missing so much insulation that the smoke outside came inside and woke us up. I had already developed terrible allergies from the first room and when I asked for a possible refund, owner told me it wouldn't be possible and only gave me a second room which I took because it was last minute. Would have rather slept on the street. Also, there were no housekeepers that came to clean the room while we were there, only hung a bag of towels on the door and some soap. Not worth the $1800 I paid for. Next will spend on better accommodations. Highly disappointed in this establishment.
