It was one of the nastiest rooms ive stayed in, in 20 yrs. Outdated, cheap, ragged look and worn everything. Sheets didnt look clean so much i almost slept in my car. I didnt know what kind of bug was in there but i left the lights on and kept my bags on the bed. The cheap chinese dresser wasnt even sturdy enough for me to put my backpack on without tipping over. Wish i had time to get another place that night but i had to be somewhere 2 hrs after i checked in. The peephole had a wad of toilet paper in it. Standards are bottom line only there and i doubt theyd remodel unless threatend by corporate. Any fixure was old and peeling. Safe was rusty and out in the open.

Bathroom in need of an upgrade. Had a person going around at 2:30-4 am banging on doors. Other than that staff was very friendly, and the rooms are average.
Never got to check in and my room was paid for,because my debit card was blocked and i didn't have the $25 deposit but i had cash but they wouldn't take it
Shows lack of maintenance and breakfast was essentially nothing but coffee and nut bar

Room 234. Bathroom floor had loose tile with black mold. Bedroom had horrible creaking floor. AC worked for 20 minutes then stopped. Refrigerator shuddered loudly when it stopped. Pillows were good.

I get it it’s cheap and I don’t mind that as long as I can walk to the beach. But it was very loud a few times. People arguing at 3:00 in the morning. Then sheriffs beating on their door at 5:09 in the morning. Stayed there many times for location and cost. Staff is always friendly. Just a bad outing this time
