My friends and I decided to stay at the "El Greco" because the casinos were very overpriced the weekend we were going to AC. The location of this motel is pretty good. It's steps from the boardwalk and lodged between the Hilton & Tropicana. That is the one and only good thing about the motel. The room was incredibly small and smelled horrible. The carpet was stained, there was a cigarette burn in the comforter and the linens looked worn and dirty. The lobby and hallways were dingy and dated. The walls are paper thin and we could hear every car drive by and every word our neighbors spoke. We got to the motel around 5:00 am after a night at the casinos. Between the freezing temperature in our room and the noise from the people partying next door no one could sleep. We decided to leave after only 2 hours and drove home around 7:00am. I do not ask for a lot in a hotel. It doesn't have to be fancy and glitzy or even very modern. I just want a clean and safe room, the "El Greco" did not meet my standards in the least. I would NEVER stay here again. The staff was super friendly, but it didn't make up for conditions of the hotel.

Honestly if you want a newer updated place to stay this is not the place for you.The carpet showed signs of wear, and the door was old with out a peak hole(there was a window you could see from)
For me and my g/f it was perfect. The bed was clean as well as the bathroom. We were able to get a room with a fridge(we ask when making reservations...not all rooms have them). The location was great for walking to the Casinos and around town.There were food places with in walking distance as well as a beer carry out store.
We did see prostitutes acrossed the street at other motels, never any by our hotel.
Also the motel has limited parking. We never moved our car once we got there.
I dont suggest this motel for those staying with children, the room is small and the walls are thin.
We plan to stay there again, it was a great find.
***Call to book your room. It was cheaper that way.***

My wife and I satyed at the El Greco Motel on the first weekend of the month of September. It was a fine motel with friendly staff. It was not the newest motel but was clean and seconds from the boardwalk. I felt safe in the ample spacious room and was comfortable. Really used it as a place to sleep that was safe and clean.Already have plans to go back next year. Hope this is helpful to someone.

My husband and I just stayed there and the place is old and it is a motel....but it is in a great location and we could walk out the door and look right at the ocean and right beside it is the Hilton..so if you want to spend a small fortune stay at the Hilton. We were on the 4th floor and the room was clean and the staff was friendly!!! We will be staying there again!!! We don't spend a great deal of time in a room so as long as we had a clean shower and bed....that was all we cared about!!!!!
