Great location. Steps to the beach and boardwalk

This hotel is in a great location right across the street from the beach. The Boardwalk is steps away. The room was big and comfortable with a nice balcony. The only downside was the parking. It was a little tight. Overall we had a great experience

Nice hotel, great location, bedding is too soft.

My double queen room was renovated. The beds/pillows were too soft and there was contruction across street but the noise wasn't too bad. The parking on the ground level is very tight. I liked the location and convenience of the hotel the most.

Perfect overnight stay!

I thoroughly enjoyed our overnight stay. They allowed for early check-in and let us park until we left the beach long after check-out. The staff was wonderful! I will go back again. I really enjoyed our stay!
