Location is very cool. Lots to do in the area. Room is very comfortable.

It was ok.
Juanita, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

It was a good stay. Did not like the $35 nonrefundable charge, which is unreasonable by my standard. Stayed in hundreds of hotels throughout the world never seen this type of unreasonable charge before. Many hotels placed "accidental/damages/theft holds" on the customers' credit cards but usually refunded them after their stay.

Cheap Stay, get what ya pay for, would go again

Cheap little place for a couple nights. Company contact was in touch before your stay with check in info. Uses electronic door locks with codes, no keys to worry about I like that. It was my wife, 2 kids and myself. Room was good for just a couple nights. Not sure when trash day is, but all the barrels were full, even the "recycling barrels" were full of trash instead of recyclables. We were in unit 4, could use some new flooring/updating but it was serviceable. Had everything we needed for a couple nights. We would stay again, the price was what I expected for value and what you get. There is a dollar general down the road if you forget something, as well as a Walgreens. Mile walk to Pier or drive down, we drove and paid for parking. Biggest thing I didn't like, which others mentioned in reviews was the mandatory $35 fee for verification. It's just an added fee on top of the price, which I have never seen when booking hotels. It was still cheapest with the fee for our trip in the area.
Joseph, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Our stay went very well overall, and everything listed in the description was present upon arrival. The location is convenient and the hotel is pleasantly quiet, which we greatly appreciated. However, the room could have been cleaner — there was still toilet paper in the bowl when we arrived, which suggests a lack of attention to detail during housekeeping. Additionally, several features in the room are outdated and in need of maintenance, such as the main window blind, which was broken and let in too much light. For these reasons, I unfortunately cannot give a 5-star rating — or even 4 stars — despite the good aspects of our stay.

The room was nice and cheery, with a little sitting area and kitchenette. The proprietor was hilarious, and he also offered good tips on restaurants and things to do. Great stay!
Greta, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

Hard time getting into the room as it was a code and we had to have it changed three times, electric fireplace only for looks do not use the heat as it blew the fuses and our power went out, bed extremely firm but comfortable. Left a partial drink on the counter came back to ants. Room was nicely decorated

Lionel E, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

The mattress was comfy. Mosquitos inside. Broken shade i had to put a papertowel in it to block anyone from looking in. Shower was cracked and not clean. Pacman machine joystick didnt work. I was given the wrong code to get in and i tried calling but went unanswered. Didnt respond until i text the number. Probably wont stay here again for the $100 they charged. The photos in the listing are for another room which looks like it has been updated.
