This is a gem of a place on the main strip - linked to other hotels in the area, you can use their facilities as well. Stay in the main house, it is clean, old school boardwalk feel and a real comfortable stay. easy access to the beach. the only thing i would ask is that the fitness equipment be repaired. there were 2 elliptical machines out of service and the assult bike's gauge didnt work.

First impression. Old that was attempted to be updated. First evening we could not get the water in tub to turn off. Had to call office. Maintenance was nice. Fixed in about 20 minutes. Noisy fan in bathroom. Second day asked for housekeeping. No one came so we had no towels. Office was nice and gave us towels. Beds were uncomfortable. Can hear every footatep above and next to you. Would not go here if you want quiet or comfort.

Not so nice

The hotel was nice, but we stayed in the motel part, which was kind of dumpy. Pink toilet and sink were interesting though. No maid service

The heat pump was making very loud strange noises and seemed to be due for maintenance. The bed wasn’t very comfortable. The decor is nice, room was clean, and the price was reasonable but I wouldn’t stay again.

The rooms were spacious and bright however they were very dusty. The dust on the ceiling fans, the dust in the tower fans. It did seem to exacerbate as my symptoms in our guests. We did try to do a genuine cleaning. The staff was wonderful and accommodating the building itself is beautiful and right by the sea plenty of parking very short walk to the beach I would highly recommend staying again.

Awkward check-in and very early departure time.

I arrived in the evening and had to check in at another hotel, the Waves. It was confusing and time-consuming, and it wasn't clear how to get to my room on the second floor of one of the buildings. The agent offered unclear instructions about where my room was and my building. This is an older hotel with beachfront access. They also have a 10 am departure time. When I asked to be allowed to leave at 11, they said I had to call in the morning.

This property is extremely dated. The room was dirty and desperately needs to be updated. The toilet doesn’t flush and sink didn’t drain. The beds were terrible and there is a freight train rolling through every few hours. Outlets were falling out of the wall. I would absolutely not recommend staying here. The pools are disgusting and nothing looks like the photos online. The only positive thing I have to say is the staff were kind.
