Stay away!
No A/C two nights in a row. Front desk could’ve cared less. I was told the manager of the building would call me. It’s been a week. Thank god we brought an extra fan for the dog. Still woke up drenched in sweat. Awful experience. Will not be back.

Good location, steps away from the boardwalk. Small room and outdated property in general.

The hotel room was updated but the rest of the hotel looks old. I did like the view from the ocean front room. I didn’t like the setup of the bathroom with the sink outside from the shower and toilet. The breakfast at the satellite cafe is probably the worst breakfast food I’ve ever had. I would recommend going off site for breakfast. The staff that I can in contract was friendly. The only reason I chose this hotel is because it’s pet friendly. I will most likely not be staying here in the future.

Property was very clean. Staff were very nice! We did have an issue with dogs in the room above us (I love dogs) but they were very large and seemed to be left alone a lot- the ran for hours on end and through the night. The hotel staff assisted. :)

Was expecting a kind of rundown dirty on the boardwalk place to stay. Super surprised when I got there the whole facility. Looked clean, smelled clean you could see the floors were clean. The beds were comfortable excellent place to stay and recommend.!! But it is at the end of the boardwalk so if you plan on walking to the inlet, it’s a long walk

Noisy over my head neighbors.
Hi the room was a nice room. Clean and up to date. It was the noise over my head CONSTANTLY as if someone was rearranging the furniture over me. Other than that it was a good stay.
