As soon as we entered the hallway leading to the elevators, I felt that the hotel was a well-maintained property. The room was very nice. We had an ocean-view room, which was a plus! The receptionist at the check-in desk was very friendly and helpful. We had a bad light bulb in the foyer of the room, and the service staff came within minutes. I'd say the parking lot is convenient, but if it were busy, I think it would be dangerous. It should have mirrors at the corners so that you can see when another car is coming. There could be more lighting in the area where the sofa is located. I'd give the hotel 4 stars! We loved the location! We were able to walk to everything we needed.

Room was clean. Staff very friendly. No frills. Very outdated but worth the price & great location. Our room faced the ocean 3rd fl so we could see the ocean but the view was obstructed by the ugly row of rental row homes between us & the beach

First room they gave us was in the first floor and it was dirty, old, smelled like mold and we found live bugs, asked to be moved and they put us in a third floor room that was better but still absolutely not worth the very high price due to the busy weekend. They can charge all they want because of demand and supply but the reviews should always be based on comfort per $ spent

The hotel was overall clean, bed was comfy, pool looked nice (too cold for my liking, but it was the end of September). The fan in the bathroom didn’t work, which didn’t pose a huge problem for us, but could for the hotel in the future. Great beach and boardwalk access. Right across from the beach bus line.
