I loved staying here. The people who there are very nice. It’s a good walking distance to the boardwalk about 8-9 minutes. You don’t have to drive to get to the boardwalk. Rooms are comfortable and clean.

We enjoyed our stay. It was clean, the staff was friendly and it was a great location. The only problem for us was that there was no coffee in the room and you have to wait until 8:30 for the house coffee. Other than that it was great,

The closeness to the beach is great. We slept fine. Not having any amenities was extremely disappointing especially given that there are no places to purchase anything that’s necessary. In addition, when we needed assistance from the front desk, nobody answered despite our calling several times.
