I’m saying terrible and giving them one star just because they don’t have an option to give them zero is the worst place that I ever been in my life when I had a guy there they didn’t even have a room that it has he or I had to wait for the guy for the front desk to go get a heater from another room And the heater didn’t work so I had to leave

The hotel door to our room was just locked with a button on the very wobbly doorknob. Anyone could push it open. I pushed a rusty tilted office chair under the knob. Only one key (not a card). There is a liquor store directly across the street The hotel was extremely old and needs a complete makeover. Only one table lamp and a small light over the oven for the entire room. A cabinet door was missing. One star ⭐️ overall is being generous. Not recommended unless you are totally desperate like we were. Only good thing about La Fonta is that you can walk to the boardwalk, this one star.

Typical seaside heights crack motel

So i get there. And they tell me theres a $100 deposit that wasnt mentioned amywhere online when i booked the room. Then they tell me that theyre full and are sensing me down the atreet to the cloud 9 inn. Oh okay. Great. Still has a pool and i dont have much of a choice bc it was nonrefundable. The dude at the front desk was nice but thats about it. The room had ants, looked like it hadnt truly been cleaned/mopped it god knows how long. Bathtub had mildew and drain was clogged. The door to the room didnt shut right. Overall it was looking like the typical seqside crack motel. I have to say though, the comforter and sheets were suprisngly clean looking and smelling.

If there was a lower grade I’d give it as we arrived late, took almost 20 min to wake up staff to open. The second we walked in the smelly unsafe room, we decided to stay in our cars realizing any other room would be same if not worse.
