8.8/10 Excellent! (744 reviews)
Inside the property, we really loved it. Great room, lovely food in the restaurant, brilliant gym facilities. Outside, however, it was awful. It is very much surrounded by areas of homelessness and I wouldn’t recommend going anywhere by foot from the hotel, Uber/Lyft only. I felt really unsafe when going through these areas.

8/10 Very Good! (1,008 reviews)
Pros: good price, nice staff, separate bedroom, very close to the boardwalk and beach, free parking/availability, fridge, microwave, allow pets, good plumbing/hot water. Cons: paper thin walls, uncomfortable beds (can feel the springs), bad WiFi, cheap towels & bedding. It’s definitely a 2-3 star motel but if you’re traveling on a small budget, you’ll appreciate it.
