3br premium apartment was fantastic
Greatly enjoyed the 3br premium apartment for our 4 night long weekend with adults, teenagers, and dogs. Can’t beat the front-row oceanview and the big deck. Beds were comfortable, both bathrooms were beautiful, and full kitchen was super convenient.

The rooms were spacious in the suite, however a second bath would have be an asset to the accommodations. Comfortable beds, the one bathroom extra large.

Great but had to upgrade rooms
Would give this 5 stars but had to upgrade our room after one night. The second room we had was wonderful and would book that again. Spacious and beds were comfy.

Overpriced
You are paying for the closeness to the water. Very over priced! Room was basic but big. Coffee maker but no coffee and no toiletries even at the front desk. Walls are very thin. Only would stay again if it was discounted greatly.

Great recently renovated room, excellent friendly service at check-in.
Two minor quibbles: rooms are too sparsely decorated, lacking a desk/table, and dresser, closet or other place to put a secind suitcase; and the whole inn complex is pretty noisy, not a big deal, just a fact that a lot of the people there are enjoying their vacation into the night, and the wallsvare pretty thin.

Fun in the Sun!
My great granddaughter and I enjoyed our stay there. It was very cleaned. I was just a little disappointed that I could not find ice anywhere. The convenience of the first floor was nice and close to the pool which she loved!
When I went to add another night stay they were very accommodating.
Very convenient to town!
We loved the time we spent there!
Will go back!

Yhe bed was memory foam and comfortable. The room was newly remodeled and had a shared balcony. We could see the ocean from the room wondow since we were near thevfront ofvthe hotel on the second floor. The bathroom was all newly remodeled too and i loved the color scheme. Check in was not what we booked but they accomadated us and apologized for the mistake.

Was not worth the price.
The bathroom door would not close. There was no hot water after running water for 10 minutes. I had to take a cold shower.

This is a great place considering the price & location. The only issue we had was that we couldn’t get any hot water.

It was just ok. For $500 a night I was surprised how it was so bare minimum. It was loud with dogs barking, the main door to the hallways slamming at all hours. The room was very basic and had a sliver of a soap and 1/4 oz shampoo. I would have brought all of that if I knew. I assumed for the cost we would be getting a better quality room and experience.
