    Would definitely stay there again but they do need to do some maintenance work on the property

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    The staff was very friendly and accommodating. The rooms were nice size. The location was perfect. Not directly on the beach , but foot steps away.. Nice surprise was the AMAZING view for the fireworks. Watched them from the hotel deck. Couldnt have had a better view . Right over our heads. My only complaint was the bed wasnt very comfortable. Not sure if it was a room specific thing. We liked the laid back atmosphere. Would go back. If you're

    Tres tres vieux et sale

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    We stayed for one night. The room was nice, the jetted hot tub an added bonus. We did not like the location of the room on top of a garage with no knowledge of the other areas of the property. No ice machine nearby. Location was good. Property was clean.

    Very bad

    Its a place to lay your head

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    The room had a glass sliding door that felt extremely sketchy and insecure, like it could easily be broken into. We did not feel comfortable or safe with it at all. For $170 a night, I expect a room to at least be clean, comfortable, and secure. This place was none of those things. Very disappointing experience and definitely not somewhere I would stay again.

    Location to the beach and boardwalk Toilet not working properly, furniture old, tattered and uncomfortable, cleanliness lacking.

    Exceptional

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    Location was perfect, to walk to beach, the casino ballroom for a concert and many restuarants. The room was pretty dark, not enough electrical outlets, the decor is very dated, the blow dryer did not work.

    We booked for a 1 night stay on the whim! Was a little skeptical due to the reviews but our room was clean. No sign of any bugs or fleas. It definitely wasn't a prime hotel and a little outdated but it is close to the ocean and that made up for it as we were only in our room to sleep!

    The cleaning staff for the rooms was very nice and so were the front desk staff. The hotel is extremely outdated and the amenities are useless. We had plans on our meals which included cooking on the listed on property grills. There were 3 but only one was usable and that was so disgusting you wouldn't cook anything on it. The pool was tiny and the other looked like it was not the the cleanest to get in. The rails were broke off and leaning on the fence, there was trash on the ground by the trash bins by the office. The bed was a rolIbed on wheels with just a mattress that our backs were killing us by the time we. Left which was earlier than we.planned because we were uncomfortable. I shared all of this with the desk clerk when i checked out. Its too bad looks like it could of been nice in its day especially with the the location its in

    Despite staying there twice before, I never knew there were two pools, which claimed to be heated. However, they were cold in my opinion. In my first two stays, I had a great room with the kitchenette and a comfy bed. This time, we were in a different building with a view of the back of the housekeeping area and very noisy people above us and across from us. And I hated the bed! However, I will try to stay there again, just knowing what I was expecting and what I don’t want.

    Paid a fortune for our anniversary to get the room with the jacuzzi. Messaged them to let them know that it didnt work they sent a guy up who didnt wait for the tub to fill up to test it. It still didnt work after he left. I said that we would just hold off for that night because it was late. Went to the office and called and left a messag two or three times that day. No answer office door was locked. Property was not clean. Nasty washcloth in the hallway out side our room that stayed there the entire time. Lots of junk around property. I was going to complain when we checked out but the door was locked and I had to drop the keys in the box. They sent out a survey which I responded to honestly and they never responded. Will not return

    Le seul point positif est l'accès a la plage qui est a côté. Sinon il y a beaucoup de moisissure dans les porte et plafond. L'air climatisé est tres incrusté de saleté.

    I asked for a refund because I had a family emergency and could not stay there and they did NOT grant me a refund because

    Pools were nice. Staff was descent. Rooms could definitely use better cleaning. But overall it served our purpose and was close to the beach!
