The worst part of our experience with this hotel was the check-in. It was the least professional experience I have ever had. The clerk was talking on the phone with a friend while a movie or TV show was playing on another device all throughout the check-in process, so no attention was given to us as customers besides asking for an ID. Subsequent phone call to front desk was unanswered. Facilities and room were of average cleanliness. Breakfast starting at 8 was too late for our travel needs, and there was no coffee/tea maker in the room. Would not recommend to anyone.

A quick glance the hotel is nice. It's clean and simple. Front desk clerk had to reassign our room. We were originally in 240 and the mattress was beyond horrible. When you sat on at you went straight down completely to the platform. They switched us to 243 and those beds were acceptable. Really wish the rooms had queen size beds instead of double beds. Save the time and go to McDonald's for breakfast.

Lots of restaurants that are walkable. Rooms were very clean and the employees at the front desk were very friendly. I took off the star because the air conditioner wasn’t as strong as I wish it was and also please be careful in the bathtub as it is extremely slippery when showering. We had to put a towel down so we wouldn’t slip and fall.

The property was clean. The room that we rented was clean. The shower wasn’t all that great but the bathroom was clean. There was no microwave in the rooms. Using the microwave on the floor was inconvenient and really dirty. We seen a pool on site, but it was really small. Overall, it’s the best one outside Atlantic City if you are not staying on the Beach. Conveniently located 15 minutes from AC.

Booked this hotel for one night because it was affordable and a short drive into Atlantic City to see a show. The room did not have all the amenities as described like no many refrigerator or coffee maker. It was clean, the bed was comfortable, and the bathroom had good water temperature and pressure. We brought a white noise machine…thankfully because it was loud at night with people and dogs. The parking lot was full of trash, trashcans were full and spilling over, and we didn’t see any staff on site other than the person when we checked in. We won’t return.

Front desk manager was nice and welcoming. Toaster was very old and not cleaned in awhile. But a lot of options for a continental breakfast. Only begals. No white or wheat bread. No apple juice only orange. Overall breakfast was not too appealing. The steam from the shower starts to drip from the ceiling. Shower pressure was not good n shower head old n rusty.. overall the ppl who worked there was very nice.

Jennifer, the part-time worker Giovanni need a full-time with a full-time worker were amazing. They make sure we need anything we were last minute. They accommodate us on the moment we walked in the door and we have nothing but kudos for the whole team even guys behind the scene housekeeping and that the groundskeepers everybody was amazing and the pool was perfect. It was 5 feet. Like a personal size pool my own down for this location and I think the difference should be a little softer but if you have a bad problem, that’s the bed for you. It was comfortable. They are stiff.
