I booked this place online thinking in going a couple of days with my 2 years old daughter and my mom. I needed a not expensive place to stay, close to the beach and humble. Ok ...it is close to the beach but it's not humble at all and not cheap at all specially for what you pay. The pictures... More

As other people said, I found hair on the sheets, so don't know if they were changed since last guest. Bathroom door wouldn't even close. The bathroom light and loud fan on switch was way too annoying. Too expensive and not so nice. No thanks to coming again.

We went in both July and August. The staff was friendly and the place was very clean and pleasant. A short distance from the beach. The pool was clean and the entire stay was great. We will be back next year.

The sheets were very dirty and we asked the front desk to send the cleaning lady to change the sheets and also the blankets that smelled bad and had stains. The cleaning lady said they only change the blankets once a week. We had found one earing between the sheets in one of the bed which means they didn't even... More

Last weekend a couple friends and I stayed at Anchor Motel, and we had a great time here. The location was a 5 minute walk from the boardwalk and beach making it very convenient. Also, this hotel is located next to the fire and police departments, making it a safe location. The room was clean enough ... nothing spectacular, but... More

My family and I stayed at the Anchor Motel last week. The place smells. The room that we stayed in was disgusting. It is filthy. The entire hotel hasn't been updated at all in god knows how long. The carpets were paper thin, dirty and ripped. There were crumbs everywhere, including inside the drawers of the dresser you keep your... More

Dear Guest, We are sorry that accommodation were not up to your standard. We were able to look up your reservation and you had checked out early due to unknown reason. As a courtesy we refunded you the one night stay but you never mentioned about the room not being clean or even pool not being clean. We clean our... More

They acutally have a policy where they charge you for the first nights stay if you cancel WITHIN 21 days notice. INSANE. First of all, who would book a room at a 1 star motel more than 21 days in advance and second How can they charge someone a first night's stay if the person canceled the room 1 day... More

The Anchor Motel staff are a disgrace. The owner JD thinks he can do, or say whatever he pleases to his customers at any given time. He made fun of my friend last year and told her she acted like she had down syndrome. He also called me fat and a cleptomaniac without any given reason. The maids stole me... More
