Let’s start with the good. 1) all the staff are helpful and friendly. 2) the location is good if you need to be near the boardwalk. Lots of restaurants within walking distance. 3) the restaurant beside the hotel serves really good Korean food. Reasonably priced too. The bad? I’m not sure if I just got the worst room or if all the rooms have the same issues but here goes:1) the bathroom is dark and the water supply is weak. They have a pail and tabo (water dipper) in the shower as a back up which only means that management knows about the problem but does not want to invest in a stronger water supply system. 2) the linen had holes and tears from cigarette burns and goodness knows what else. The pillows are lumpy too. 3) the airconditioner was noisy AND weak.It was so hot I slept with my shirt off. 4) the doorknob was loose and the door kept catching on the floor. 5) spotty WiFi. 6) the neighbouring establishment has a live band. If you are a light sleeper, good luck going to bed before 11 pm. Honestly, the only redeeming value this hotel has are the employees. There are much newer and probably better maintained hotels in the area.
