Not at all what I expected based on the more recent reviews. Our room and shower were in obvious disrepair and towels were stained. Served its purpose but was a little disappointed.

Economic place to stay on the Island

4th of July trip. Had to get the remote from front desk. Staff was fun and friendly. Room was cold...yay. Shower was hot and bed was VERY comfortable.. Thats all I care about. Applian es were not plugged in so put food in it but next day only my ice packed kept it edible. I share fault in that. Will stay again.

I really dont like the $100 "security deposit" that takes 5-7 business days to be returned. Other than that, location is great, room amelt like chlorine but i guess that's better than smelling dirty.

Recommend for basic stay.

Everything was fine except this apartment close to a small club, so it a little bit noisy. It’s worthy for a affordable price.

Bed bugs, dirty sheets, the smell of mildew and terrible wifi. We were not expecting fancy, but what we found was just gross. It's obviously an older building, but absolutely no effort was put into keeping things fresh. The towels they gave us had yellow stains and the white sheets had yellow stains. I even found a couple of bed bugs. I don't usually write reviews but this made me compelled. The price is high so you would expect a little better, but no, I do not recommend anyone staying here, the building should be condemned and started anew. That being said, the location is nice and close to the beach.

I got there and got ready and left right away. So I didn’t check anything until I got back I would say around 7pm the toilet seat was BLACK from dirt I wiped it down & the toilet paper I used was soooo dirty from cleaning the toilet seat when it came time to shower the towels had dried up blood as well and what looked to be urine stains … . The walls are thin & I could hear the family next door YELLING at their kid to go to sleep cussing at them. I would never ever stay there again . Don’t stay there tbh it is not worth it
