Budget Friendly

Stay was fine for a short weekend getaway. Hotel is older and run down but all rooms have ocean facing balconies. There is a small pool but no where near there size needed for an hotel this size. Easy access to the beach and boardwalk. Our toilet didn’t work and ran all weekend and parking is down the street from the hotel a few blocks which was hard with someone in a wheelchair. We ate at the restaurant on our first night and food service took forever and the food was just so so. Overall not a bad stay but for a little more money you could probably find nicer accommodations.

I never leave reviews but this hotel was AWFUL. Staff at the front desk never smiled and acted like they hated their jobs. They were so cranky and always seemed so bothered when guests went to counter. They would rather watch tv in the lobby and ignore guests. Our balcony at check in was dirty and just overall the entire hotel was dirty. There was BLOOD on our balcony curtains!! There was always an inconvenient wait for the two elevators. Just a gross hotel all around. Will never ever recommend.

Pros: low price, great location right on the beach, all rooms are ocean view, staff very friendly, rooms were clean, daily housekeeping, restaurant on site. Also plenty of food and activity options within walking distance. Cons: Pool is not heated and pool area is pretty small with not enough loungers or chairs. Downside is that you may not find anywhere to sit, upside is pool area is never very crowded. Water is pretty cold though. Onsite restaurant (although not directly affiliated with the hotel) is not great. Food is average and way overpriced. Along with the mandatory 20% gratuity, I would opt for someplace else. Overall, this place is a good value for the money.

This is an older, no frills hotel with responsive staff, great location clean pool and direct access to the beach. Don’t be put off by the dated lobby. This fit out needs perfectly when a hurricane caused us to leave an OBX Airbnb, early we wanted a budget hotel outside the hurricane zone. Our room was freshly updated and very clean, comfortable beds, with a stunning view of the ocean from our balcony. Brittania at reception has a great customer mindset and was fantastic when we asked to extend our stay, and quickly arranged for a chair to be replaced. We also received text s to confirm everything was ok. The hotel does not have breakfast, though there are complimentary coffee/tea, water bottles and apples & bananas in lobby. Guests have reciprocal rights to use the indoor pool and gym at the Hampton Inn next door. Free parking is one short block away, amusement park just a few blocks further, the outdoor pool was clean and and I saw it has a pool hoist. This hotel is a great value if you want to be on the beach and are not seeking luxury!

The property was somewhat ok. Just not what we anticipated for the price we paid, however after complaining to the desk staff, they kinda sorta assured us that they will do their best to make our stay as comfortable as possible. Well had to go out and purchase a scented candle to improve the smell of the room. (Had a very dank smell). Once that was done it improved our mood and we made the best of it. But on a serious note I won’t stay there again. I would do my research very carefully next time.
Took a walk along the strip and took this photo. It matched my outfit ☺️
View of where we stayed. Loved the calypso grill food tho!

It was hard to sleep because the AC was set to turn on and off automatically. We couldn't change this setup. We get a room on the lower floor with no privacy! I would not come back there and will not recommend it to others.
