4pm check in was a bit late. I arrived earlier and was offered early check-in for $100+. Also felt $75 a day was expensive to park. I did not valet it because of that high price. Love the renovations.

Needs Some TLC and Bring Headphones and a Kettle

We were staying for a busy holiday weekend. The property was affordable and the bed was comfortable. The bathrooms had badly damaged (or poorly installed) hardware that was falling apart and not staying in their proper position. I didn't mind saving money without the ocean view, but I didn't realize it would mean having to hear the loud partying from the bar next door. We couldn't sleep until after last call at 2 a.m. The beds were comfortable. The air conditioning unit was so loud and turned back on every five minutes. There was convenient breakfast downstairs and a shop. Access to a hot water kettle would make life far easier. It was super convenient for a short weekend, and the staff were wonderfully friendly and informative.

The location was great but parking was $90 a DAY and also charge a $28+ hotel fee a day onto the already expensive prices for average room. Hotel is dated compared to others in the area. Not sure what the hotel fee is even for, it seems it is just a way to pad the bill. Front desk staff were nice but only 1 person working so took time to check in. My main issue is the price of parking and resort fee. Never have ever had to pay $90 A DAY to park. Pretty ridiculous

I had to call to have my room cleaned as well. All in all the hotel is good and we would stay again. The pool staff needs a little help as well.

An interesting building with a great history has been reduced to lipstick on a pig. The only employees with a sense of professionalism and service were the valet parking team, and at $90 per day, they had better be. While our room was quite spacious, the window treatments were stained and filthy, and one armchair was held together with scotch tape. Worse still was being awakened at 2:00 AM from a room party one night, street partiers another. The bars look nothing like the website photos and are tired and old. For the supposed sports bar, the televisions showing old Westerns were ridiculous. Lastly, a casual breakfast served in paper boxes was $55, and our pizza in the sports bar was served on cheap paper plates. This hotel might think they are a sophisticated oasis in Asbury Park, but we would argue it is anything but.
