AC not cold enough
Cleaniness was good. My complaint would be the AC. Not cold enough. They had it set where you cannot change temperature.Uncomfortable sleeping at night. Too far from boardwalk. Next time I will book place with a pool. Nice thing too is upgraded room with kitchenette. I was able to check in earlier.

Great place for families or couples
This was my 4th or 5th time staying at the Thunderbird. I like it because it is quiet, about 3 blocks from Casino Pier, free on site parking, the rooms are clean , the staff friendly . I usually get the family suite, because it has 2 BR , and a kitchen, which (A) helps cut down on expensive boardwalk food, (B) gives us healthier eating options. They also have a small fridge with enough room in freezer for ice cube trays for the cooler and a microwave which did a good job on my popcorn. Say you need a drying rack or ice cube tray. The staff will happily lend it to you. Also the ACME supermarket and Spirits liquor store are very close too
