Summary of reviews

Guests say
Guests consistently praise the hotel's exceptional location directly across from the beach and boardwalk, making it ideal for ocean views and sunset watching. Many appreciate the clean rooms and comfortable beds in some cases, but several reviews mention issues with cleanliness, outdated rooms, and maintenance problems such as non-working amenities (pool, fire pit, fireplace). Service is mixed, with some guests finding staff friendly and helpful, while others report slow or absent housekeeping and front desk service. The pool and other amenities are often unavailable or not functioning, which detracts from the overall experience. Despite these drawbacks, the prime beachfront location remains the hotel's standout feature.

Pros (+) The room was clean.
Cons (-) There was nothing special about this place, especially not for the price we paid. It was not outrageously expensive, however there a much cheaper hotels in the area that have the same to offer. The breakfast is what brought me in, however it really was not that good. I would much rather have saved some money on hotel costs and gone out for breakfast every morning.
