The hotel was very clean and family friendly, loved the ocean front view and only having just steps from the beach, the location was awesome close to the boardwalk and shopping, also because I have arthritis loved having a walk in shower and a very comfortable bed, my family and I are looking forward to spending another vacation at this hotel.

Check in was easy. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Parking was available but a little full on the first night due to customers going to the restaurant on the pier. The room was clean and maid service is per request. Close enough to shops and restaurants so you can walk. The hotel seemed to be updated except for the indoor pool, it looked a little dated there was rust and watermarks everywhere. One elevator did not work. Overall, nice place to stay, we stayed with small children and they enjoyed the beach And both indoor and outdoor pools.

Great, clean ocean-front hotel. Recommended!
Clean, convenient beach-front hotel. Half the price of the big names a mile down the road but just as good. All hotel staff were extremely friendly and helpful. Ocean view room with balcony was better than expected, and the hotel seemed to have been recently modernized with hard floors throughout. Will definitely stay again in the future.
View from balcony at night.

Wonderful Beachfront Hotel
Great place to stay right on the beach. Staff was friendly and helpful. Nicely renovated with bright, cheerful colors and a friendly atmosphere. Prices were reasonable during the middle weekdays we stayed there Convenient on-site restaurant and bar with live music Our one complaint was frequent marijuana smoke coming from other balconies.

Really fun theme for this hotel and looks recently remodeled, however, the pool and building it was in were really in need of help. There was mold on the ceiling, lots of rust and open spots in the doors and areas around the pool, the door wasnt locked in any way so anyone could walk in and swim or wander into the hotel. The lobby and room itself were clean and well kept.
