I liked the jacuzzi, the provided personal items and its location from the boardwalk. The staff was responsive, so that was a plus too.
What I didn't like was the jacked-up price for weekends (stayed in Aug), the fact that the hotel was in 2 sections--crossing the street for breakfast was an annoyance, cigarette burns in blanket, and the ...
You don't want to stay at Econo Lodge Beach Block 3001 Pacific Ave!! That should be knocked down. Motel feom Hell. Didn't get OVERSIZED SUITE as reserved, charged me for it. No fireplace. Everything wired with extension cords or plug adapter. Overhead lights you see the rafters/wiring above, looked below code. Screw under carpet. No heat. Low power in jacuzzi. NO HOT WATER for at least 2 hours both mornings.

A Great Choice!

This hotel was very close to the beach and the Tropicana. Although it wasn't listed online, it had a microfridge and a continental breakfast. It was clean and in good condition. Also, the hotel actually accepted the coupon offer in August!!! It was great for the money, especially if you can't afford to pay a fortune. We had thought we ...

Never again!

I thought the staff and service were good. As for the hotel, the room was uncomfortable the floors were sticky and there was no windows that could open. There were prostitutes and druggies right outside of the hotel and young men hastling drivers from the roadside. Not too mention beggars all over including the boardwalk. I wouldn't reccomend any one to stay here.

BEDBUG ALERT - DO NOT EVER STAY HERE
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 05/08/08
I am currently caring for a friend who stayed at this hotel. She and her husband are now covered in bed bug bites that have become infected and have swollen up into large hideous welts. Up their arms, legs, belly and even a welt on the back of the neck.
The staff was dismissive of their experience. No attempt was made to compensate them except ...
I VISTED THERE SEVERAL TIMES I WAS VERY SURPRISED HOW NICE THE LADY WAS, SHE WAS VERY NICE AND EVEN OFFERED US LOWER RATES WHICH BEAT ANY LOCAL HOTEL CHAIN. THE ROOM WAS MOSTLY FOR US TO FRESHEN UP AND HIT THE CASINOS AND SHOPPING AREA. THE ONLY THING THAT WAS QUESTIONABLE WAS A STAIN ON THE BLANKET, BUT NO ONE USES THOSE BLANKETS ANYWAYS LOL POSITIVE EXPERIENCE OVERALL.ALSO GAY FRIENDLY RO
Me and my boyfriend took the bus down to atlantic city. Check in wasnt till 4pm we got there around 1pm we called and asked if we could check in earlier. The girl told us we could. They even upgraded our room to the King Suite. The best thing was that it was right across from the Tropicana which was the bus would meet us. The only thing that i would suggest they do it try to update it alil more. but other wise my stay there was great.

Nice to my Surprise
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 10/22/07
I took a vacation to Atlantic City for the first time on August 19th. We stayed 3 nights at the Econo Lodge Beach Block. When we first arrived it was raining like cats and dogs. The woman behind the front desk was very nice. She gave us advice on where to have dinner..... When we arrived to our room it was very very clean and smelled like air ...

I stayed the last week and I had no problems. Our room was clean. And it's seconds to the beach. We paid $65 a night - breakfast included.
