Room was Ok. The fitted sheets on the mattress were too small and was CONSTANTLY sliding off. AC is in a window one and took some time to cool off the room (we came in at 11pm and were ready to sleep but it was warm). There is some construction right in front of the hotel. A Cleaning Of Pool on Friday was dragged all the way to 11:30 so kids were not able to swim. But Breakfast was AMAZING. Staff was nice over all.

Great beach view, extremely clean beach area w/very soft sand, excellent & fun pools, bar was always hopping in the evening, staff was always so helpful & courteous. We were blown away at how staff went out of their way to push the elevator button for us, welcome us, tell us to have a great day. Having the bunk beds for the kids in the room was perfect-it even had bean bags & their own TV!! The balcony was roomy enough to enjoy & dry towels on. You could rent chairs/umbrellas for a fee each day. It was a perfect stay.

very nice staff, convience location, reasonable price. Beach has a lot of seaweeds in the afternoon, early morning water is clear and no seaweed. Road Construction is on going in front of hotel, they should have installed some lighting in the entrance of 98 E roadway for ease of exit and enter at night

We paid for an extra clean front room. We were placed on the second floor over maybe an indoor pool. The roof was nasty and Ellie and when sitting, our ocean view was sub par and very small. Our room alarm had a flashing light from our he AC window unit that kept us awake.

Great stay. Only down fall we were right next to 6 ac units and over the inside pool. Horrible view. Couldn’t even hear the ocean and unfortunately they were fully booked that night but gave all 3 of us a voucher for the breakfast buffet the next day so that was nice. Next time I’ll specifically ask for another room right when I get there. Avoid room 302!!!

Nice hotel

We arrived on Sunday to the hotel. We had a hiccup as soon as we arrived as our card was charged twice as we checked in. Almost $900 twice. As of now after checking out on Wednesday the charges are still pending. The agent did comp our drink cups and early check in fee. The thermostat on our wall was also torn off and couldn't be replaced. We had to try to operate it from the actual unit which didn't work well. The staff was nice, the food was good. They had great activities for the kids. The pool area was nice and clean as was the lobby. All in all it was a good experience minus the credit card snafu and thermostat.
