The Good: Parking was convenient and hotel was on the boardwalk The price was right (off season). The not so good: The kitchenette was lacking to say the least. Make sure you bring your cooking essentials (plates, silverware, glasses,pots and pans measuring devices, cutting board,can opener) There were ants in the hotel You get what you pay for.

It was ok for what it was. A cheaper place to stay compared to others. Boardwalk is right there. Man at the front desk wasent accommodating. Had a problem with our cable in our room. He said he’d come up to check it out and never showed.

Excellent Choice!

Very clean and super friendly and accommodating staff. Hotel feels dated, and beds are slightly uncomfortable but for our price point, it was doable.
