Great breakfast, nice pool area, spacious room, friendly valet. Sofa bed was a bit uncomfortable and it was loud in the morning with doors constantly banging shut as we were near the staff service corridor.

Such an awesome hotel! We loved the full hot breakfast included in our stay. A quick car ride to the boardwalk and down town area. Valet only was one of a financial bummer but the valet team was amazing! So kind and awesome recommendations for restaurants and activities. 10/10 would stay again!

Short trip. Just stayed for 1 night. Room was nice and clean. King bed with a sofa sleeper was perfect for our family of 4. Kinda disappointed that breakfast ended at 9:00. When traveling with teenagers, they’re usually not up and going by then. Oh well. Should have read the hours.
