Great stay and great price

The hotel was great. It has been tastefully remodeled and we really enjoyed our stay. It was convenient and walking distance to the Boardwalk and many restaurants. Check in and check out was a breeze. We will absolutely stay there again.

Pool and hot tub were great. Nice clean rooms. Bed was a little hard but over all nice hotel for the price.
Allison, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Felt unsafe due to large groups of people doing drigs drinking alcohol. Neighbors blasting clubbing music at 7am.

Comfortable bed

Bed was very comfortable. I got there late and left early so sleep was all I had time to do. Had a good night's sleep.
1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Very nice value for the money, a little older but they clearly made some good efforts to modernize the decor. Could be cleaned better-tidy but found used floss and soap ring in the bathroom.
Kathy, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The location is very good, near the boardwalk. Although they charge $10 for parking it's still better than parking at the boardwalk. one can walk for 10mins to save $$. The hotel staff was quite nice and friendly. The manger allowed us to keep our car in the premises even after our checkout which was great. overall, a good stay.
Sushila, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

They take out $150 for deposit and do not give put it back in your bank account for 3 to 5 business days not good if you have a budget.
Carlos, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Exceptional service and relaxing atmosphere
Frani, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Extremely satisfied with our stay. For the price we paid, we had low expectations. But this was so close (walkable distance) to boardwalk, rooms were well maintained, beds were comfortable, swimming pool temperature was good even for a April first week evening time. I don’t think any other place would beat this place for the price we paid. Staff was great, particularly front desk/registration staff. Thank you! We had a fun time weekend.
Vishal, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Roach infested hotel

Roaches! This hotel has roaches crawling all over it. My room had tiny roaches all over the walls. It was dirty and smelled bad, it did not look like they cleaned it. I complained about the bugs and was told I should check out without a refund if I didn’t like it. When I did check out they called to tell me that they were keeping my deposit because the room smelled. That’s how they gave it to me! I honestly feel like they kept my deposit as retaliation for complaining about the their roach infestation. This place is disgusting and the staff are rude and scammers. I traveled with my 1 year old and my 12 year old daughters, this hotel ruined our entire experience. Don’t trust this place
Elizabeth, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

Disappointed to the max!

What we thought would be a great family fun day took a sour turn when we got this hotel! We arrived early at 1pm hopefully we could check in early since I had received an email stating it was an option. When we arrived at the reception we were told check in was 4pm hotels.com has it as 3pm check in time. We decided to go to the boardwalk to enjoy so sun and food! We came back at 4:45 and the girl at reception informed me that they had no room available for us that we had to wait, she started to argue making comments to my family stating No one told you to go to the beach like it was our fault they didn’t have a room for us, she also continued comparing our reservations to a burger order, she was just completely rude! Making a very hostile environment! When we got our room almost 5:30!!! It had a used toilet paper roll, we had no soap or any bathroom supplies. The balcony door lock was not working making it unsafe for my son! It had a stick to lock it! The pictures on the website do not match at all, when you arrive in person it looks like a hunted place. I would not recommend anyone staying here!

6/10 Good

No so clean

Unfortunately, the bed looked like linens had not been changed. There was hair on the sheet... went to the front desk to get new sheets. Got a new sheet for both beds, but I had to ask twice.
