They modified our room last minute bec they overbooked. Then they put us in a cheaper room full of molds and was so filthy. Front desk threatened us that if we don’t take the room they’re giving us they’ll just full refund us and let us find a different hotel. Mind you this was on a weekend and peak season. They could’ve at least called us prior so we could’ve made arrangements.

The hotel is right on the boardwalk facing the ocean, located at the midpoint of the boardwalk. The staff was excellent and helped me with check-in and extending my stay. It was a very enjoyable visit.

Nice restaurant on lower level, wish they stayed open longer. Pool was nice but could've been bigger. First day, pool bar was closed. Other days it was open, but didn't have many serving options. Free coffee in the morning was a plus. Great location! Overall, very happy with our stay, and will be returning!

Beds and pillows were not the best. Shower had a curtain that no matter what you did leaked out. It was not as clean as I am used to. Room size for a suite was good. However for a family of 5 they only had 3 table chairs. You did have to ask for plates, utensils and such if planning on using. Also sofa sleeping had no bedding and when asked they did bring it to room quickly. But they had no comforter or extra pillows available. Front desk staff was really sweet, friendly and accommodating. Having a pool is always great after the beach but by the third day it was cloudy and dirty. They did have nice lounge chairs at the pool.

I had two microwaves in my room. I broken one and one that worked. Why keep the broken one? The floors were so dirty. I cleaned my myself. The dirty water was so black. I don’t believe the floors were ever cleaned.

Nice, But Needs Improvements

Suitable for a family of 4, but needs improvements. The room was spacious and clean, but the bathroom not so much. The bathroom is tight, there appeared to be black mold in the upper corner of the ceiling near the mirror, and the bathroom door did not close well. The door seemed too large for the frame and made a loud noise when forcefully closed and opened. The kitchenette had a refrigerator, and microwave, but no built-in sink. A sink would have been useful. The views from the balcony was great. The hotel is right on the boardwalk with access to the beach. We had ocean view and city view. Parking was conveniently located at the hotel, although had to pay separately for it. For the rate, I think parking should be included. Lastly, the bed although comfortable, the sheets were not. The sheets felt rough and grainy. I had to sleep in long pants because the sheets were scratching. Would have been perfect if not for the issues I mentioned.
