We have been staying here for over 20 years. It has gone downhill a bit over the past few years as far as upkeep and cleanliness. The stairs needed to be vacuumed. They used to be done daily. Looked like they hadn’t been done all summer. Our beds were so uncomfortable which was never a problem before. We will still go back!! And hopefully these issues will be addressed
By phone I spoke about getting an extra parking space, because there is only one spot per room. I was told there probably would be one but when I arrived we were told there weren't any left. Yet for two nights there was 1-2 empty spots. It cost us over $100.00 to park in lots. We extended our stay somewhere else with better customer service!!
This property is clean and convenient. The outside pool was very nice. The only thing we
Didn’t like was that there was no ice machine for a few cocktails in our room and one 2 plastic clothes hangers
The rooms were clean and beautifully decorated. Doesnt look like the usual boring motel/hotels. Staff was so kind. My daughter has disabilities and had a meltdown in the main office. The staff could have ignored it and continue doing their job but instead they helped me calm her down. Definitely booking here again next year.

I though it was odd, they provide ice buckets but no ice, you have to go buy that…..I’m not really complaining just found it odd
The location is great, close to beach and boardwalk areas. The staff is very nice-helpful. The rooms are dated but very clean and well maintained. The kids loved the pool!! Which was clean and heated.
Good place for families.

The Beach !
I enjoyed my stay there with my gf for her birthday. Room was clean , front desk was super accommodating with extra towels and early check in cause our room was vacant the night before which was a bonus ! Parking was good and loved the heated pool we both enjoyed our stay !
When we first checked in we were given a key to someone else’s room with their belongings… we then we placed in a room that wasn’t clean, then moved to a room when we finally settled we moved rooms again.
Shower didn’t drain when being used. We will not be staying here again.
