For the price, I give it the stars I did bc it’s a run down place that truly needs repairs and upgrades but my guess is they may not be in the position to do so. Therefore with the low cost of staying the nights and its location is great on the beach, I can’t expect much.

The area was unsafe, there was blood on the lamp shade, feces on the walls. The air didn’t work and the toilet wouldn’t flush. The floors had holes in them. There was people everywhere just hanging out in stairways and on front sidewalks by the room doors. Had sign up that says not responsible for stolen items from your car park at your own risk. This was the most disgusting, dangerous, and dirty place I’ve ever stayed at. We ended up leaving and getting a room somewhere else.
