Fire pit was not working, when we asked about it staff said they needed to refill the propane tank. We were there for 2 days and they never refilled it. We were looking forward to sitting on the deck at night with the fire. One of the double beds in our room was broken. The staff was friendly and courteous.

The breakfast was solid. The precheck in emails they send you are nonsense. They will still need you to do all of it when you check in so don't bother. They sent me an email saying the room was ready, I get there and it's not ready. I had to wait 40 minutes once I got there so the room could be cleaned. Not sure why they would send me an email saying that the room was ready when it wasn't. They comped the parking which was nice.

Good location

The girl who checked us in, did not tell us that breakfast ended at nine so when we walked down at 9:15, we did not get our breakfast that was included. Also, I asked for the pullout couch to be made or blankets to be put in the room and they were not upon arrival so I had to walk down and interrupt the man at the front desk who is on his 15 minute lunch to give us blankets because we wanted to go to bed. He seemed very annoyed and wasn’t the friendliest.

Great location. Far enough to have a little space during summertime break but close enough to have a pleasant walk to beach, wharf, and boardwalk. The hotel room was spacious with a balcony. The beds where no bad, pillows where lumpy which is not comfortable and cringing to look at. All the staff i encountered were helpful and fun to talk with.

This hotel was perfect for us. Great location, walkable to the boardwalk. Upon check-in we were upgraded to a room with 2 beds and a couch bed (bonus for my teen boys not to have to share a Queen bed!). The girls at check-in were super friendly and helped us accommodate parking for our sprinter van that was too tall for the parking garage. The hotel looks freshly remodeled and is very clean. Free breakfast in the morning with waffles, eggs, bacon and sausage was a big plus. A great value for a great hotel!
