The plays was clean. Some of the staff were helpful and friendly, others were short and inconsiderate. We call the office to get the Wi-Fi password one afternoon and the guy in the office said the password once then hung up on my wife before she could make sure of what he said. I had to walk down to the office and get the password from him directly and he gave me a terrible attitude about it. However this was the only problem we had.

As inexpensive hotels go, this place was pretty good. Notice I wrote "inexpensive," I didn't write "cheap." The hotel was quite dated, but it was clean, comfortable, in good repair, and actually kinda cute. The neighborhood is nothing special. If you need a respectable and affordable place, consider Richard's.

When we got there you cannot walk into the lobby, 4 workers were in there socializing and no one acknowledged our existence except to point at the window which another customer was already at. There were cockroaches in the room, just leisurly walking around. The residents, and I say residents not guests as these seem like long term tennents, were outside talking loudly until late and we had to be up at 4:30am. The curtains were not blackout. Overall very bad experience and not impressed at all. Spend a little more and stay somewhere else.

It's a very charming site and the location is great. Walking distance to lots of places. I like how quiet it is. The room is big and clean and I slept well, there was literally no noise at all. I would definitely visit this place again. The room didn't come with a little soap and shampoo like most hotels but it wasn't a problem bcuz CVS is very close by, less than a block away.

Not cleaned properly. Garbage was in the cabinets from previous guests. Saw roaches in the cabinets. The towels they provide are the worse I ever experienced at a hotel. There are so rough. I liked the set up of the hotel and the front desk employees were nice. The pool is the best part of the hotel. They really need to upgrade the appliances.

Very quaint. The environment is extremely comfortable & I was very relaxed, I felt at home. If you are looking for a 5 star or upscale hotel, then you should go someplace else. It's very laid-back. It's a 2 story motel with all the necessities, including a fully functional kitchen. No issues to complain about. It serves its purpose. I slept comfortable, I felt safe, there are working cameras, the grounds is well kept. Housekeeping is available and the staff were helpful, polite and friendly. Most of the guests I saw were older and coupled up. Parking was not an issue either. Water pressure was great. They also have a smoking area, along with plenty of space to sit, relax and enjoy your stay. It's also very convenient to everything. Public transportation to airport is right in front of building. If you have a car that's even better, it's about a 10 minute drive to Walmart, Boardwalk and Beach. Not too far from downtown. It's in a very quite neighborhood. 10pm noise control, which I love. There is also a good truck on site. I will definitely return to Richard's next time I am in Hollywood. I recommend this place for both long-term and short-term stays.

I spent 2 nights at this property . I booked it on Orbitz and when I got to the check in desk ( you actually talk to the front desk person through a window) I was told that I had to pay $50 cash ( you can not pay with a card , it has to be cash) as a deposit . I was not informed or aware about this cash deposit when I booked it. No big deal , I payed it .Also they say that you can not have guests or visitors so nobody can come visit you in your room while you stay there . Then I was told that my room was actually at a different location , about 3 blocks from there. The room was not in the best condition as you can imagine, bed sheets looked like they were 10 years old , the gas cooking range was not working at all , refrigerator had some pretty visible dirty stains on it, the wooden desk was ancient, badly faded and very sticky. The bathroom only had some small hand and face towels ( no big towels) . My room was on the corner , very noisy ,I could hear every car passing by on the street . I know the area very well because I used to live there for many years and I knew the motels in that area are not in good shape so it wasn't a big surprise for me . Yes, you can sleep there if you ain't got other options but don't have big expectations.

At check in, I had to provide proof of I’d for me and my wife, then I was informed that I had to make a $50.00 CASH deposit. I do not travel with cash. Debit and credit cards were not accepted. The attendant informed me that it was policy of the hotel. Unfortunately, I was not able to experience the good or bad. Left and made reservations on another Hotel.

Worst ever
It was by far the worst experience I have ever had with Hotels. The clerk was rude. After seeing the room which was what was advertised at all I went and told them I wasn’t staying and they refused to refund my room rent which was close to $200. So walked into the room n back out and for 5 min was charged full price. It was shabby. Flat white sheet that was wrinkled as crap was over the couch. Shabby and run down.
