Monica

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Loved the view of the ocean. The rooms were very clean. The mattress was very comfortable. The staff was friendly and accommodated with an early check-in. The patio and dining area were inviting, with a fireplace and outdoor heaters, and a nice view of the pier and boardwalk. I would definitely stay there again.

Although a bit dated, the rooms are clean. The customer service and location are great. Close to the pier, shopping, and restaurants. Even if you don't have an oceanfront room, you still can get a room with a great view of the ocean. Parking is a bit pricey.

Cost and value don't line up
The carpets are not impressive as they felt grimy and the bathroom had some water damage on the walls and door. We were right off the lobby so it was very noisy. The crew stocked the supply room at 5:30am, so that was unpleasant. The large gap under the door let in light from the hall and sound from other guests. There is an upcharge for everything, so be prepared to pay more than the posted room rate. $25 to park. $10 a day for Wi-Fi. The coffee bar is pricey with no complimentary breakfast. Two scrambled eggs were $10.79. Overall I felt the cost of our stay didn't reflect the value... I won't be back.

Our stay was very nice. The only issue was i didn’t realize it had a separate building from the main one and i would have preferred to stay in the main building. The man working the deck restaurant was so friendly

Beautiful location, uncomfortable beds.
Beautiful spot. Room was clean, staff was friendly. The only problem is the beds were uncomfortable. The mattresses were way too soft and squishy like they had been well used. I expect more for the price.

You will pay for every service at the hotel, including parking in their lot, which costs $25 a night. The location is great, but there are other locations at the exact cost and with more excellent service.
