We typically stay further away from the boardwalk, but this place had decent reviews so we took a chance and it was ok. The couple who works there was very nice and welcoming. We checked in without a problem. The room charge was comparable to other hotels at about $300/night. The room is cleaned after three days (make sure you schedule a time with the manager in advance!) and the parking situation is a little unsettled. There are about 3 more cars allowed than spots, so you can get a pass for street parking but the main office closes at 8 pm. So, if you arrive after 8 and didn't get a voucher and there are no more spots available you're out of luck. Fortunately, we didn't run into this problem as we made sure not to use the car after 8 p.m. We LOVED the location. It was within walking distance to all of our favorite restaurants along with some good breakfast and ice cream stops. The upstairs neighbors were very loud and we heard all of their running around, but that's probably customary with most of the small hotels in the area. The bottom line is, we felt safe, the room was clean, and the pool was nicely managed. We would patronize the Dolphin Inn again.

Beau Motel à proximité de tout ! Frigidaire avec congélateur, lit tout de même confortable. Ce fut un bel endroit pour le prix ! Faire attention au stationnement… peut manquer de place le soir à l’occasion. Police très regardante si pas de vignette dans les rues !

I had a great experience. It was a perfect way to celebrate my cousin’s 60th birthday. They were able to put our rooms together. It was close to the beach and boardwalk. Had a cute area to grill. The picnic table had a canopy which it kept us cool from the sun. Very quiet at night. We will be definitely be coming back next summer.
