Good
Anonymous, Feb 2017
Pros (+) Nice location, walking distance to boardwalk, nice size kitchenette with Microwave, sink & fridge, clean looked like it had just been painted found some paint tape near the border, beds were okay not horrible, no bugs or anything yucky, staff is average, checked in & used key drop. Paid 112$, which was alot less for a clam festival weekend, other motels were 200+ online
Cons (-) The heater was very dry for air quality came home sick, and no pool or amenities. Also weird people around the area, one person walking a cat. Parking lot is very visible, no gate so cars could easily be broken into. Floor was loud I felt bad I had 2 kids so every step was loud.
