Although I only stayed one night due to getting ill on my trip, the hotel is older but the staff and owners were very accommodating and wonderful! If you need a spot right on the beach for a good price, the Safari hotel is it.

The hotel was located steps from the boardwalk. Parking could be tight. Please be aware the photos of the site are for the rooms within the hotel building. We were given a room in a building adjacent to the hotel. It was cramped and run down. The staff were nice and coffee and cookies were made available in the hotel reception area.

Wonderful location
I appreciated the location, the vibes of this hotel. The AC was amazing! Yes it has an older feel to it and I think it's part of its charm. The staff is super friendly and helpful! The balconies overlooking the beach/ocean are wonderful!! It takes less than 2 minutes to be in the ocean! I'll be staying here again!

Everyone working at the hotel was friendly and helpful. The room was clean and exactly what we needed for our couple of nights there. The location on the boardwalk was far enough away from the rides that it was a nice and quiet area, but close enough that we could easily walk to and from without any trouble. We would highly recommend this hotel!

Good enough to sleep in. Definitely not for hanging out. The rooms and hotel were very outdated. Rooms were clean, but damp and smelled like mildew. Nice big shred balcony that overlooked the boardwalk. Staff was very nice and helpful. Parking is a situation

Great place to stay!
I stayed at Safari for the last several years for a 1-2 night trip, just to meet a couple friends down in OC every summer. Always a safe, reliable, & affordable place for me to stay! My room is always clean and tidy, and the beds are comfortable. This is your basic motel room, nothing fancy, but never had a bad experience here!

The room needs updated but it was clean. The staff were wonderful! We had an issue with our beach cart. The manager on duty came out along with another guest. With their help it was fixed so it could fit into our car. Check in was also good, we were allowed to check in early which we really appreciated. I'll be staying there again.
