Great location. Across street from beach and ocean. Short walk to Pier. Immediate walking access to bars and restaurants. Dated and worn - so you get what you pay for :(

Wi-Fi didn’t work. Property a little shabby. Too much noise since it’s right on the Seawall. Convenient location to walk to restaurants and attractions.

So many posh people reviewing this place, this place was fine for the price! My friends and I stayed for one night before my cruise and it was fine!! Check in was quick, wifi was a bit slow but it was only for one night! Staff even let us stay an hour more free of charge while we waited for our ride, it was awesome. Yes, this place isn’t the Four Seasons, but you get what you pay for and it was honestly great!

Went to check in and no one was around for 12 minutes. Went to have continental break-fast the next morning and they only served individually wrapped Hostess snacks, water, juice, and lukewarm tea. Tried to check out the next morning (6:40) and everything was locked up and lights off. Called but kept getting hangups.

The property is apparently in the middle of being renovated. I think I was in one of the older units and I can see why they needed to fix it up. For the price it was hard to beat but it was definitely not the best of facilities.

Jarett

Disliked: Amenities
The sheets were clean, but had cigarette burns. The room smelled like smoke (although not smoke). The bed was comfortable enough. The toilet was not bolted down on the floor, and every time you sat on it felt as though were going to tip over. The shower tap was not normal, and no hot water ever came out, and the shower floor seemed to be peeling away. The air conditioner/heater unit in the wall worked very well. There was some newer furniture and some very old furniture in the room. It felt like the owners were trying to upgrade, but didn’t want to do it all the way. There is no sign out front at all, as apparently it is changing from a Knight Hotel or something like that to an Econolodge as of January, 2024. The guy at the front desk was very nice.

Absolutely horrible!! I never leave bad reviews however this place left 6 kids and 2 adults stranded at 1am in the morning after guaranteeing as they were a 24hr checking and would be there when we arrived. We talked to a women 3 times the day of arrival to inform about flight delays, and transportation delays due to accidents and wheather. Thanks God for the hotel next door who woke up and helped us with a place to stay at a discount price. They also told us this hotel does this often to the clients and are horrible to deal with. I DO NOT RECOMMEND STAYING OR BOOKING THIS PLACE. STILL WAITING FOR A REFUND !!!

This is the second time we have stayed here. It’s not a 5 star hotel but it was perfect for my husband and I. Iour room was literally right across the street from the beach. I will stay there every time I go. I don’t have to have anything spectacular.

The bad: First of all, I feel like the pictures in their ads are either really old or photo-shopped. This place is very run down. Our door has issues unblocking with the key card, the phone only works off and on, our toilet didnt flush from the get go and we waited for about 1.5 hrs for someone to come and fix it. Now, its already running slow again. Also, the Wifi hardly works and the room is very dirty. (Smells of old smoke even though non-smoking room, stained sheets, shower gross, questionable stains on wall and behind toilet, a/c filters and pretty much everything else filthy) I would have left or asked for a different room but they already charged my card over $180 and they filled up with customers really fast after we got here. However, I would appreciate being contacted via e-mail for some kind of compensation. The good: The workers were nice and were able to get us in early after getting off a cruise ship. The location is good. Its right by the ocean and Paradise Pier. We enjoyed a great lunch at The Spot and visited a cute souveneir shop also. However, I could never recommend this place to friends because it was the dirtiest place we've ever stayed at. (Even worse than Motel 6) Sorry to be so brutally honest. I hate complaining, but I don't want anyone else to have the same issues we did.

Over night
The price was acceptable compared to the surrounding area prices which are outrageous. The location was nice but the bed did not fit the frame and was hard as a rock which made for a not so great night of sleep. There were stains on the shower curtain and the restroom was dirty.
