I love this hotel. It’s super nice, clean and the location is the best. Right in front of the boardwalk. And a short 5-10 min walk to downtown. Right next to the bike trail as well.

New hotel, great location
The hotel is great, newly built and a block from the Boardwalk. Only downside, bar closed before 8:30 pm and the bartender would not provide us with wine glasses so we could open our own bottle to drink. Offered plastic water cups instead
