Anchor Motel

The little house I rented was nice. Had to go buy bath towels, paper towels,but that wasn't a big deal. Interior was clean, nice. Could tell it was updated. Great for family. The exterior needs help. But it looks like the area is in updating mode.

The location was perfect you could walk to the beach a 7/11 was very close for coffee. The owner was very friendly.

I didn't like that we had to go get our own towels and the garbage was full I had to go ask for bags to change out the cans. No one even came in and checked the room, the floor was covered with sand.

The place was close to the boardwalk.

I picked a room through booking.com and when I got there the room I picked was not what was given to me. I was told by the owner that if I wa Ted a specific room I should have contacted them directly. I told the owner I specifically picked that room because it had 2 rooms seperate from eachother and I was traveling with my son and daughter. An offer to move was made but I would have to pay more. I refused.

Proximity to beach, boardwalk and food options. Very clean and managed by a lovely family. No request was too much trouble. This was our second stay and we’ll be back again!

For a beach hotel it was decent! Pretty clean and the beds and furniture were in okay shape. Was next to the police station. Close to the beach.

I'd stay here again... Very private... And felt safe, police station was right there.

Great location, friendly staff, very clean.

Nothing

I have stayed in many hotels and motels. Depending on the stay I might stay in whatever fits from a 2 star to 4 star resort- not too many 5 stars. I have stayed at Travelodge many times, but also spent a week in a penthouse in Vegas. My point is I don't have high expectations, but expect what I pay for, what is advertised, and to be treated with respect. This place is a run down motel you would find in a slum. The door led right to the street. Best of all, the parking is non-existent. We parked in a spot and parked a little on the the very small sidewalk, the women that works here BERATED- I am not exaggerating she was absolutely disrespectful to both of us - we walked in to ask for ice and they said to go buy it at 7-11 and yelled at us for "parking my car over into one of her spots" It was the side walk- how can you own the sidewalk? She made us move the car a block away to what seemed to be an abandoned house's driveway. Later that night, someone was parked on the sidewalk- so she told them that was a spot. No Ice, no parking and the room is SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO bad. The blanket was 50 years old and as thin as a paper towel. All night someone walked up and back and up and back and it was VERY loud so I got like 2 hours sleep for my 13 hour drive back to Chicago- the point of a hotel is to sleep and we even went back at 9 PM to get extra sleep. I never write reviews but after my 13 hour drive I mustered the energy to write this to save others the pain of staying here. The whole experience felt like a bait-and-switch; the photos online are staged- one is literally photoshopped to show a part of the MOTEL that does not exist., because what we walked into was nothing short of a horror show. Plus when I went to leave no one was in the office and I had a 13 hour drive. There are no swipes, just an old key that you have to return- my neighbor left hers in the door all night and there were a group of guys that appeared to be gang members hanging out all night. I was told to leave my key in an opened mailbox- wow that is not safe. I wouldn’t wish this place on my worst enemy."
