Our room was clean. Kitchenette was functional (we did cook in it many days) but dated & could use a little TLC in the near future. Bathroom was clean. Only negative feedback is that the wall mounted AC unit is in desperate need of cleaning as the fan fins were pretty black & smelled of mold, clothes dresser & central nightstand drawers would not stay closed once items were placed inside. We wedged paper on the sides to keep them closed. Easy fix with maybe some shims, but we don’t carry those in our suitcases.

Decent Place to Stay
Front desk staff was WONDERFUL! Food at restaurant was good. However, once in our room, our feet were black from the carpet.When we notified front desk, they discounted the room and gave us breakfast vouchers. The cleaning staff cleaned the carpet but left the door wide open afterwards with all of our belongings inside. Once notified, the hotel refunded a night. They were extremely accommodating! The bathroom tub grout needed a deep clean. Everything else was fine.

The cleaning staff were very nice. Location to the beach is wonderful especially for the price. You can catch the tram to go anywhere on the board walk you wish 5$ per person each way. Wish there was a warmer pool with shallow end for kids is all. If you want someplace to sleep close to the beach its perfect.

Great place for the family!
Our family had a great time at the property. The front desk staff was pleasant along with the housekeeping staff too. The location right off the boardwalk was perfect for us and we appreciated the easy access to the beach. The little restaurant wasn't bad either they had on site. We had a quick breakfast there and we appreciated the standard pricing vs the beach penalty most places hit you with. The room was clean with a fairly updated bathroom which we loved. Bedding was acceptable and our room had a great view of both the inlet and ocean. The one area I would update are the little plastic chairs on the balconies. Some of them are falling apart and had to be replaced. Overall a good stay and we will be back for another one this fall

Our stay was very nice! The room was spacious and CLEAN! There were 5 of us but it had room to sleep 6. Beds were very comfortable. Steps away from the boardwalk and beach. Friendly staff. We will be going back.
