The location is decent for going to the beach, but the rooms are in urgent need of maintenance. Note that there are NO kitchen utensils! not even glasses to drink from! Cleanliness was also below average.

Stay away

Room was tiny. It was not the room in the online photos. The room was so small the closet was inaccessible with the bed so close the doors could not open. Amenities ancient. The place was obviously cut up to create units. The person staying in the room adjacent was screaming obscenities at 3am and then was violently vomiting. Several additional fees at check in including $4.50 for ice!

The Good: Price, location The Bad: Expect $20-$50 in unexpected fees, expect staff to care less if you’re there or not, expect to have your deposit on hold for months after check out (literally there were multiple people complaining about this) Overall - this is a great place to stay just have your expectations in line with the price and inconsistencies that you will encounter

Terrible employment.

Room was filthy. Had to clean and sanitize myself. I also did not receive my deposit back. And was told by the staff that it doesn’t come out. But it definitely came from my account. The amount of 80 dollars. I called several times only to get no one. I returned to the property and was told to speak with management. That wasn’t in at the time. I will be taking legal action if this isn’t resolved

This is not a place to stay if you are looking for a great "room" experience. If the plan is to be on the beach our just out of the room, I highly recomend. We are a but adventurous, so we walked the beach end to end and then got a one day bus pass and took 15 minute bus ride to downtown Hollywood. Art Park at Young Circle was AMAZING!

It’s in a great location but it’s a mess and the place charges extra fees for towels? Parking ? And anything else they can. It’s similar around the area but it is a nice relaxing beach at least..
