2nd time and not going back
By Lisa, 2/29/08
our reservation was not correct. good thing we called prior to getting there. for the price we knew not to expect a 4 star hotel but somethings like being able to the dresser draws to unpack your clothes would have been nice. Stayed 9 nights and could never unpack. The drawers where nailed shut on the dresser. We asked a few times to have them taken out-never happened. They advertise phones in rooms-but the phones are not hooked up and we were told at checkout that they are not going to be hooked up. The elevator was not working 2 years ago when we stayed here. Still not working and we were told there are no plans on ever getting it fixed. So if you can not hike the stairs this hotel is not for you. The women working the front desk on checkout had a problem with us paying cash after she rang the credit card through the system before even asking us if that is what we wanted to do. Most hotels ask you if you want it to remain on your card before they charge your card. Not this place-they just assume what you want to do and then give you attitude about afterwards. The place is old and needs a good paint job for sure. This was our second time staying there and we will not be returning. Which is a shame because it has a great location-right on the boardwalk and beach. We will save more money for our next trip and stay in a more expensive place-hopefully one we can unpack our clothes.

What Do You Expect for Price?
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 1/15/08
The location is excellent; the hotel is old, run-down and in need of renovation. But, if you check on other beachside places you will pay twice as much. It's two blocks down the boardwalk to the bandstand with live music each night, and there are a number of restaurants on the boardwalk. Wish they would fix the plumbing, put up new window coverings, and install some new furniture, but then the price would likely be out of my range for a beachside motel. This is for less picky people, not premadonas. Ken

IT'S HORRIBLE!!!!!!!!!
By Yolanda, 4/24/06
The only good thing about this resort is the location. It looks nothing like the pictures on the web site so don't be fooled. The furniture is old, dirty and in some cases broken. The rooms smell horrible, the wires are all sticking out of the walls, the toilet ran all night, the floors and bathrooms are dirty. The elevator was out of service and according to a past customer that was at the counter when we arrived, the elevator had not been fixed in the past year. The carpet in the hallways need to be thrown out. The hallways are dark with very little lighting. Again, the smell is horrible!!! The entrance to the resort was thru an alley. I don't recommend this resort to anyone.

Unbelievably Horrible!
By Sharae, 3/29/06
Do not, I repeat, Do NOT stay at this hotel! It looks like something from a horror movie! This was definitely the worst hotel I have ever seen. The hotel is not even located on a normal street. It looks like an alley. You have to park in this parking lot where you can't see your car and it's kind of far away from the hotel door. When we walked in, the lady at the front desk told us the elevator didn't work, so we had to go over the mountain and through the woods to get to the room. The hotel smells like mildew and basement. The light in the hallway was broken, so it was dark by our door, we were scared to walk in. When we walked in, we could not find a light that worked. Finally we pulled a string to a light on the ceiling and even one of those bulbs was blown out. My friend went to use the bathroom, and the toilet didn't flush. Not to mention, when she closed the bathroom door, she saw old dirt and hair from whoever stayed in the room before, which means they did not clean the floor. The floor was sticky and the appliances were ancient. They actually had wooden sticks in the window sills to keep the windows open, but there were no screens in the windows. We did not dare stay at the hotel. The lady at the front desk was nice though. She understood why we would not want to stay there. I don't see how anyone could. We went to a different hotel. I would NEVER recommend this hotel to anyone!!!!!!

No Stars
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 2/22/05
We found the Sheldon to be very run down and in need of major renovation. Also, we were informed that there were many complaints from past guests and the hotel has code violations currently being investigated. The only positive thing I can say is that the location is good. I would not recommend this place to anyone.

Pretty shabby
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 1/7/05
The location was great, right on the beach and the people were friendly but the Sheldon is in need of some maintenance. The exterior is dreary, the halls dark and the room furnishings are very worn. The toilet ran all night and the door was broken. I think I misunderstood the Yahoo rating and aligned it with the AAA rating. The 2 are not the same.
