Disappointing
Did not get the room I was expecting no balcony to sit on . Pool was very small . Beach is not very accessible , boardwalk was far . Room was right beside the stairs and was very very noisy even very early in the morning

We liked the evening concerts which we could watch from our balcony. The room could be better equipped with hangers, a luggage holder, a small microwave. Also, the shower outside the pool wasn’t working, so at the very least a hose should have been set up for beach people to rinse off before using the pool, I saw several get in all sandy from the beach. Nice, clean soft towels and sheets.

The location is great.
The place is older.
Bar within the property with band is a plus.
Could use some furniture upgrades especially the bed.

Not the ideal place to vacay!!!
My Husband and I booked the room for the weekend because it was our 10th year wedding anniversary. The location was perfect for us, however the motel staff shut our keys to the room down an hour before (check-out at 10am), so we had to get the keys reactivated just to get back in the room to get the rest our belongings, so it was inconvenient asfar as that goes. But other that that, they were friendly or at least the cleaning staff were, but I wouldn't book again for this place if it were the only available place to stay...

So-so.
Nothing about this hotel stands out. While the employees are nice the accommodations are meh.
Dated, spares and in need of a serious updating and revamp. Close access to the beach and shuttle buses.
Bed was like a granite slab. Furnishings looked like something from a dorm room.
If you are just looking for a place to crash it is ok. Do not expect anything other than the basics.

Very close to the beach. It was a nice quiet area and on the trolley line to take you to the Pier. Wi-fi didn't work as well as it could have and I had only a few bars on phone.

We enjoyed our stay here, check in was great , very friendly staff. There was an issue going on at the hotel and we had a little wait before we could get to our room, it was no problem. Pet friendly & access to the beach is right across the street. It was quiet & the room was spacious & clean. No issues and I would stay here again.

Meh - I wouldn't go back
The hotel is old and showing signs of needing major improvements. The furniture is old and shabby. More like yard sale finds than what you expect to find in a hotel. AC is only in one room and in our room would not cool the bedroom. Don't expect more than the bare minimums.
Hotel bar and restaurant is nice.

Great location - across street from beautiful beach. Spacious room. Easy check in. The cable TV didn’t work… desk man tried to fix with partial success. The room did not get dark at night. The bright lights on the balconies stay on all night, and the blinds in the room, while attractive, do not block the light. Bring eye masks

Good location
This was our second time staying here, overall it was a great stay because of the location but there were a few things that were upsetting. The ice machine was down all 5 days we were there which is super inconvenient especially when we needed ice for the beach. Second, the WiFi never worked it doesn’t reach the second floor and they replaced the couch in the suite to a small, cheap futon. Luckily, we only needed the king bed because the futon would never be comfortable to sleep on never mind sit on.

The staff were very nice and the property was very clean. The rooms were spacious, although the beds need to be upgraded. They are older and not the most comfortable. But other than that, everything else was lovely. We also ate at the restaurant on site for breakfast and it was delicious. Would return again.

Get what you paid for
Overall was looking to sorta save on money since it was only a single night away, definitely paid for what I got. Got placed in a room on the third floor. The outside walkway on the third floor had low spots/divits with cones on them and caution tape on the railing. The room itself wasn’t terrible but the lights did not work, the beside table lamp and alarm clock were not plugged in simply because there were no outlets behind the table/beds. The bed mattresses sank in the middle when you laid on them and the shower head had a very weak pressure. The upside was the pool and the little bar/restaurant area although they were always packed. Would stay again but definitely would pay for anything other than the standard room

Didn't like the fact that I was on the middle floor and they put a family of kids above us that banged around the floor starting at 5a.m. and then till midnight.. but the restaurant there was amazing and the staff was way cool
