Upon arrival at 6pm (tall man) was very welcoming, he told us of a restaurant he recommend and we proceeded and ate dinner. After we ate my preteen had to use the restroom at 8pm. We went to the room for a few minutes to use restroom then walked out of room, as my preteen was holding on the rail she slipped and fell down the stairs. After the incident we went to manager (heavy set older Hispanic man) to tell him what occurred and if I could possibly change rooms downstairs due to my child not being able to use stairs anymore. He said, " you need to pay for a cleaning fee." I asked if any accommodations could be done? Then he went on to say, "we've been in this hotel for many years and this has never happened, this is the first time this has happened and maybe if someone was taking care of your child they would have not fallen, I can not offer anything else unless you pay the cleaning fee." Why would this man raise his voice and assume no one was watching my child? Why couldn't he offer to call an ambulance or check on my child or bring an ice pack or make a report? I immediately checked out and asked for a refund and of course they denied it and said since I went inside the room and checked in for 2 hours I was charged the whole night. I will never recommend this hotel to anyone! Aside of the incident the room did not smell clean, all the windows were opened and rust on doors.

The motel is directly across the boardwalk which is great and parking was included in stay. The room had a microwave and a fairly large fridge. The room was fairly small, but clean. Shower only and no bathtub. The property does not have a pool.

This hotel is one of the worst hotels I have experienced, the staff memeber who checked us in appeared to be intoxicated as he could not understand basic things said to him. They claim to be pet friendly, but when our friends with their service dogs showed up to get ready with us before going down to the boardwalk, the same intoxicated employee called me to berate and insult us and our service animals. Saying that they needed to leave immediately and threatened to charge us for 2 animals that were not staying in the room. When I calmly explained that they are medical alert service animals and that they were not staying in the room, only getting ready before leaving in a few minutes, he then began to yell again stating "I don't care what they are, they can not be here". Then the next morning as we checked out, he acted even more unprofessional and glared at us and acted like he was going to follow us out. Hours after checking out, now a day later from the inappropriate call, the manger called to harass me about it even more. I assumed he would be calling to apologize for the unprofessional of the employee, however after explaing what happened he states that he was glad, his words, that the employee spoke to me in such a rude way and that it is not okay for us to have had medical alert dogs, who need to be with their person at all times, in the hotel room in any matter and that this was disrespectful of us to do this anywhere. Stating rules were broken, that we were never told.
