So nice for the price!
Fantastic hotel, you could tell it was recently remodeled and modern. Plus it’s literally right at the Boardwalk. My room was small, but we loved the comfy bed, comfortable, nice accommodations and the great pressure and hot shower. So nice for the price!

The hotel is very nice, rooms are up to date. We had the Premium King and it was very small. Bed was comfortable, huge TV. Our deck had “partial ocean view” we were across from a construction site and could barely see the ocean. The only bad thing about his hotel is the parking. The parking is Horrible!!! Staff is amazing tho. Location was perfection.

Very nice new hotel. Right across the street from the Boardwalk, wharf and the beach. Parking is pretty tight in the lot, but otherwise no issues at all. Would happily stay here again.

New hotel at great location with a few little teis
The hotel is brand new. The rooms and bathrooms are modern and spacious with great amenities BUT they saved money with cheap mattresses and the building itself. We had kids jumping around above us and it was like the ceiling coming down. Not complainers but ask reception to check on it but nothing changed and it started again on Sunday morning at 7am. We also missed a safe and a microwave, not many breakfast places around They offer expensive parking spaces on the property but they are very, very tight especially the drive in and out. The location is great and very convenient at the oceanfront and close to casino

I’d like to give this hotel a 3.5/ 5 stars primarily for these reasons; the parking situation is very bad, they charge $25/ night for that bad parking, th
