Bathrooms were very clean, the room could have been cleaner however. The carpet, beds, linens and furniture are very dated and could use an update. Beds were springy and not too stiff. Room came with 2 double beds. Mini fridge freezer was not cleaned out and full of ice. Microwave was also very dated but worked fine. 1 minute walk to the beach/boardwalk and on site parking was wonderful. Definitely saved us plenty of walking. Pool is nice and wasn't very crowded at all. Overall a quiet and older style motel. It works as a place to sleep for the night!

Pros: Staff at the desk was very friendly and was able to get us checked in before check in time. Parking was very easy. Easy beach access.
Cons: Everything related to the room. The floor was carpeted but had a very moist/damp feeling. Did not want to walk in the room without shoes on as parts of the carpet or just dirt would come off on my feet. Sheets had stains on them. Couch was heavily stained.
In the bathroom the shower curtain was growing mold and so was the ceiling and corners of the wall.
Appliances were rusting generally.
Whenever the AC turned on you could hear a lot of sitting condensate start to stir up, was a bit worried about legionnaires' disease personally.
Walking from the room to the parking lot it was impossible to not get a strong weed smell. Not much the hotel staff can do to control that one but be aware your experience may be the same.
Door and door frame were visable askew from each other. Major gaps meant you heard the outside all night, same with the sliding door.
Overall on vacation you dont normally want to spend a lot of time in the room, but this motivated me to maximize being anywhere else.

if i could put 0 stars i would. me and my family’s entire stay was terrible . we had to check in at the hotel next to empress because the lobby was closed, when we got to our room as soon as we opened the door it smelled bad almost like mildew. the carpets were damp , my daughters feet were black from the carpet, the bathroom was super small and there was mold growing on the shower curtain & the ceiling. my bed had a hole in the mattress. we didn’t have any hand towels or washcloths and when we asked we were told they don’t have any washcloths .. since when does a hotel not give out washcloths? Not very kid friendly either as they don’t have a ramp or elevator to walk up stairs if you have a room on the 2nd floor or higher. we had to carry my daughter and the stroller up flights of stairs.
