This was a small room with limited view due to the construction next door, but it was clean, modern and comfortable, with great location (across from the beach and walking to the Boardwalk and Pier). The walls are a bit thin -- we could hear our "romantic" neighbors. the place, price and location were perfect for what we wanted.

Super close to the boardwalk and beach. Only con is the construction happening next door to the hotel they start around 7:30am. Since it’s a family location for vacation I heard kids running around the hotel around 10pm front desk handled it though but it happened everyday for my three stays there. Pool seemed not to be heated and was in a weird location that was not private and people from the sidewalk can see you. Roof top was a cute little hangout they close it around 9pm or so to make sure things to get dirty from wind or sun or rain with covers on the furniture. Lobby is open 24/7 I would book here again.

Pros: the view was amazing and we could hear the ocean all night. The hotel staff are very kind. Cons: The beds and pillows are uncomfortable. There's loud construction going on next door that starts very early. There's also partiers walking the street at night that are very loud. I slept horribly and even though the view was amazing I couldn't stay here again maybe if they got new mattresses and Pillows. Also their parking lot down below can only fit compact cars.

Surprised that there's no cart to take luggage to the rooms at all. Parking was VERY difficult and cramped. Noisy location being right against the main roadway and active construction at the next property over. Also a BOWLING ALLEY that you can hear through the night immediately adjacent to the hotel, connected to the same building. Staff was nice and friendly but not overly warm and welcoming. Overall, the rooms were very clean and new - though even the Deluxe King Oceanfront room was quite tiny.

In the Expedia picture it shows a little balcony sitting area for the room we rented. That was in a higher price tier, I found that out after we got there. I thought it was misleading. Parking was $25.00 a night. It was incredibly noisy due to construction that began at 7:30a.m. We had a terrible stay. I wouldn't recommend this hotel to anyone. Expedia picture was misleading too.

The hotel is right on the beach for those who want to be able to walk out the door and stroll on the sand. The room was very nice and spacious. My only criticism is that it was a bit noisy. Also, it would be nice to at least have a Keurig and UHT milk instead of the truly awful coffee and powdered “creamer” that was offered. For the cost of the room, it doesn’t seem like a lot to ask!

Stayed here for my 40th birthday with my boyfriend. You can't go wrong because it's literally right across from the Ocean which is amazing and the Boardwalk is right there with so much to do and so many restaurants in walking distance. Theres also a Bowling alley and Karaoke bar in walking distance even the walk downtown isn't too bad we did it two nights in a row. You can people watch from the 4th floor of the hotel and enjoy a drink up there. The room was small but clean. Wish we would have had a queen bed instead of 2 doubles but we still enjoyed and where comfortable. The staff was wonderful ,friendly and very helpful. We had a great trip and would stay here again.

The staff was top notch. Exceptionally friendly and accommodating. Our rooms were clean, atmosphere was beautiful. We happened to be going to the clam chowder cook off which was within 1 minute. I definitely would be back and highly recommend this hotel
