When we first checked in they gave us keys to a room someone was already in. Then we found ants between our sheets. Dead and alive. They said they can either give us new sheets or move us to a room where we had to share a bathroom with strangers. New sheets didn't solve the ant problem but it's better than sharing a bathroom with God knows who! There's no breakfast but whatever no big deal. But the surprise $20 a day, yes per day to park at a hotel that your paying to stay at is a bit over the top.

Honestly terrible. i went around end of july and it was horrible. And i hate to say it, as much money as i paid, they still charged me an extra 160 on property for parking, after i had already paid for it when booking. the first night we woke up to the ceiling leaking water and just progressively got worse. they were trying to make us figure it out as they had “not one room available.” this was out first time booking a room just us two, and it was a horrible experience. staff was rude and didn’t help at all.

I liked that is was steps away from the beach. I didn’t like that they did not tell us we could get beach discounts with the chairs and umbrellas once at the beach. Also the refrigerator barely got cold the air conditioner kept cutting off making the room hot. Staff did give us a discount for the inconvenience since they were unable to switch out our room! All else was good.

Perfect area for access to different shopping stores & the beach. Everything was wonderful we stayed in the hotel beach house 2BR, only issue was we had to have shoes on the entire time if not your feet or socks would be black from the floors, need to improve on the cleanliness of the floors. Otherwise everything else was great.

First time stay. Beach house is a secondary building, have to check in across street. Friendly staff. Room was very small. Old towels left in the bathroom & could have been cleaner. Convenient to boardwalk, beach & restaurants! Wish they had continental breakfast.

The from desk wasn’t helpful when explaining where our room was. The room had sand in the bathtub and floor. Says there’s another indoor pool but was never about it and the outside pool closes at 7.

Had a weekend getaway with friends and it was perfect! We stayed in the apartments behind the beach house. Our room was very clean, and house keeping was great. Super convenient, it was across the street from the board walk. Definitely will be coming back here next year!!
