The marketing on Instagram was very flattering while in reality the space was smaller than depicted. At least for the time we were there, no special activities occurred. The "ocean view" was had by leaving the room and looking over the railing. The strong chemical smell of whatever dloor cleaner was used was overwhelming.

Dirt & filth & horrible parking conditions ruin the stay. Interior fridge area and bathroom shower, floor etc all dirty. Parking was a nightmare in the royal tower bldg. Literally cannot get out of car when parking b/c spots are so tight. If you care about dings you will not want to be here. The building we were in was just a beach motel. The pool had someone’s bra inserts sitting in the middle island of the pool. Could not regulate ac temp. You picked H-M-L; no degrees setting. Won’t do this again.

I remember staying at this building when I was a child when this was the original Admiral Motel. The Madison has been transported into a beautiful modern facility and really does give you more of a resort vibe. We only had 2 days/nights there as any vacation plans for us has been up in the air for months. When you check in there is a valet desk at the Ocean Tower who takes care of parking the car for you so didn't have to stress out about finding a spot. The aesthetic of the lobby area including the pink floral telephone booth is light and airy. Since it was a short stay for us, we did not want to lug around the beach cart, umbrella, etc and we didn't have to since the Madison provides umbrellas and beach chairs. We got to the Beach closer to noon so we did have to wait a while for chairs to be available but it was fine as it was a gorgeous beach day. The pools in both Ocean Tower and Royal Tower provide towel service which you get a towel card that has to be returned so you don't have to worry about bringing towels either if you want to pack less things. We booked an interior view room which was fine with us for the short stay and the room worked fine for my husband and I and our teen daughter had the pull out sofa which was in the cute room with the retro microwave and refrigerator. I would say the lack of drawer space in the bedroom area would probably not be the best if you were staying for a longer period of time but that is the only issue I saw.

We like that hotels are beach front and one is pet friendly. The heated pools were nice minus the hot tub jets were not working at Royal hotel where we stayed.The shuttle was very convenient to boardwalk and a nice park and bike trail is across from hotel. Dislikes Parking is tight and you can't control heat and a/c in room switch only has low , med , and high for ac and room was chilly from a storm that came through. Room safe did not work.

Our room was very nice, but it was very, very difficult to access with luggage. The walkway is very slippery from the rain. There are no mats or anything to protect footing. Several people fell. The front desk was very, very cold and unhelpful. The best part was the valet service and the people there who were extremely friendly and helpful as well as the shuttle bus, which was a great service and was also very friendly.
