The location of this hotel was amazing. It was in the perfect spot, right across the street from the Tropicana, and within walking distance of most other casinos. The staff was incredible, and when I checked out, they wanted to make sure everything was perfect, which it was. Bathrooms have been updated, and we had 4 people stay in a room with 2 double beds, and the room was huge! It had a refrigerator, a fireplace, and plenty of storage space for the suitcases, etc. The room and bed linens were both VERY clean. I will be staying here every time I come to AC. I was very impressed.

INN? YOUTH HOSTEL, MAYBE. DON'T STAY HERE, August 11, 2008
|
Reviewer: Dariene from DC
Pros:
This establishment is in a relatively central, if gritty, area. Good water pressure in the shower.
Cons:
The weekend rate is outrageous for the quality! Rooms are not acceptable!

I wanted a room in Atlantic City under $300. With tax, the Saturday rate through this website was $266. For that money, I expect to at least be able to sleep through the night in a safe location. Boy, was I disappointed! Yes, the location is OK, and I realize Atlantic City is pricey on the weekends, but they couldn't find my pre-paid reservation and the check-in clerk couldn't have been less interested in helping us. The whole place felt like a youth hostel. Even in a youth hostel, you usually have somewhere to lock up your possessions. The deadbolt on my door didn't work, so I spent the whole night with a chair in front of the door (fire hazard!) The staircase was unlit, the hallway creepy and loud, and there is no phone in the room! I realize the "Inn" is in an old building, but there was at least a six inch incline in the room's floor from one side of the room to the other. You will be woken up by the sun at the crack of dawn, as the rooms do not have decent shades. Between that and the drunken revellers in the hallways, you won't get any sleep. And what is up with a "bed and breakfast" that doesn't include "breakfast"? the "Pub" looked like a gang hangout. Do NOT pay more than $30 a night for this place! YUCK! YUCK! YUCK! What a ripoff!

I found this hotel for reasonable price and booked it after read some reviews from traveladvisor.com. I didn't expect the hotel be this good.Pros:First of all, the location is unbelievable. It's right next to Tropicana Hotel & Casino. And don't forget the club Providence and other good clubs are in Quarter of Tropicana. And it's 2 mins walking distance (2 blks) from boardwalk. Within a block, there are Dunkin Donut and 7Eleven opens 24 hrs, so you won't have a chance to starve.The price is unbeatable too. Even we stayed there weekday, the price is lower than other motels in Pleasantville and Absecon which is more than 10 mins driving distance. Building is indeed old. But inside it's clean. The room we stayed was two double bed room. It wasn't that big, but it was enough to place all our luggage and relax. The owner was very kind and let us to check-in 3 hrs prior to official check-in time which is 4 PM. She gave us two free drinks coupon which can be used in Pub, located on first floor of the building. We checked out from the room, but needed place to store our baggage until the bus to NY comes. We asked reception and they are gladly keep our bags, so we could enjoy another 4+ hrs in Casino until we go back to home.The room had refrigeator with 2 water bottles (Free), so we could store some drinks and food in there.Cons:The pub runs 24 hrs and it can be noisy to family traveler or older people, due to music from there. We didn't have a fun at pub all night, but we saw people come and go whole night. So if you want to have a fun and drinks, it probably the spot for you.The air conditioner of the room is bit undersized, so it takes some mins to cool down the room. But once it cool down, it doesn't have any problem to make you cold.Bathroom doesn't have ventilation fan, so the hot air and moisture from the shower stay there for some moments.Also, there was no dryer, iron. So we had some hard time to dry our hairs. Other thoughts:Me and my friend had State issued ID, so we didn't have a chance to experience such racism like below one. And I don't see any discrination or rasistic practice toward us, even we are Asian.I would definitely stay there again, since I'm young enough to enjoy the music and drink. The location and the price are excellent so I cannot pass on that.

 The Inn staff was very nice, and let us see three different rooms before deciding. Some rooms are quite a bit nicer than others  , so if you get a chance, definitely look at all of them before you decide. Room 32 has a bigger bed, bathroom and total room size than Room 35 and the other room we saw (I don't remember the number). The entire building and almost everything in it are antique / old, however I would certainly disagree with claims that it was unclean or hazardous. The stairs are tiny and the bathroom floor was not flat, but  it's a very nice place considering the excellent location a block from the boardwalk and less than a mile from a sizeable outlet mall . Don't be mislead by the description that says the Inn is a "B&B". Breakfast costs about $5 and consists of eggs and meat, if you desire.  There was a complimentary drink per person, from the Pub. Unfortunately, the ID-checker refused to even spend time looking at my boyfriend's driver's license, because it's Mexican, and he wasn't allowed to enter the bar for his complimentary drink until we complained at reception. We were let in and we were given our drinks , a little while later, but the racism made us (especially my boyfriend) uncomfortable. The sign says "No County ID's, Only State ID's and US Passports", which to me means that they won't accept any international travelers... or they can just be racist and accept those they care to accept  . All in all, the Chelsea Pub and Inn is a great place to stay, I recommend it to everyone who can climb a staircase. It's in a great location .

This place is adorable, the location is fabulous and the Pub was alot of fun. Can't wait to go back, I think this will be the only place we stay when we're in AC 
I would reccommend this place to all my friends.

MY WIFE AND I ARE IN OUR LATE 40'S. STAYED HERE IN JANUARY OF 2008. WE PICKED THIS PLACE BECAUSE OF A REVIEW WE READ. MISLEAD BIG TIME. AS SOON AS YOU WALK INTO THE BUILDING AND INTO THE LOBBY, THE PLACE GIVES YOU THE CREEPS, ITS OLD AND DIRTY. ONCE YOU RECEIVE THE KEY TO YOUR ROOM AND YOU BEGIN TO MAKE YOUR WAY UP THE STAIRS AND DOWN THE HALLWAY, THE CREEPY FEELING YOU HAVE GETS WORSE. ONCE YOU GET TO YOUR ROOM THE FEELING GETS NO BETTER. AS YOU WALK THOUGH THE PLACE THE FLOORS ARE WARPED, THE DOORS AREN'T SQUARE, THE WALLS MUST HAVE 50 COATS OF PAINT ON THEM. I THINK IF A BUILDING LODGING INSPECTOR OR COMMISIONER LOOKED AT THIS PLACE, THEY PROBABLY WOULD SHUT IT DOWN. IT SHOULD BE KNOCKED DOWN AND REPLACED.

My college roommate and I ventured to AC last weekend. We stayed here. It was perfect for us as we didn't plan on getting much sleep anyway. Rooms are small but decent for the price. Pub was cranking for 2 straight days and we went to the Tropicana Quarter which was about 100 steps. We recommend this Pub and INN for a younger traveler!
