Good location, grocery store across the street, walkable to the historic district and all the restaurants, marina/boardwalk. Rooms were good, beds were soft but comfortable.
Some downsides: despite the good location, the immediate surroundings are also a little rough looking.

Clean room and location is amazing. My one meal took a long time and came cold. They reheated my dinner and overall decent. Staff was attentive and helpful. Located near the water and sceneries was amazing. Locally a huge police presence and felt very safe. Be smart with phones and wallet placement and awareness of your surroundings.
