Overall great place to stay. Parking was ample, staff was friendly and late checkout was free.

Pool had great view ...

We had a great stay for our family of 3. Everything was smooth from check-in to check-out. We had an amazing room with a view of the pool and beach. It was great to have access directly to the boarwalk from the pool area. The location was pretty un-beatable. Lots of restaurants as well as a grocery ...

Overpriced. Describes itself as a resort and charges a nightly resort fee on top of a parking fee. its pretty much a motel with a pool that happens to be in a good location. save your money, there are plenty of hotels for half the price that are as good or better and dont charge a parking fee.
