Great quiet place for little ones and family. If you require easy access to the boardwalk, this is great!!! Staff was extremely friendly. Small critiques for me: the upper rooftop deck looked like it had not been maintained and needed a power wash. In the room: drawers were a little dusty, there was no iron/board. If you have a larger vehicle, it can be really cramped and uncomfortable. Parking is limited. There was also construction going on for a hotel next door with unfortunately did not let me sleep when trying to sleep in past 8am. That being said, I would stay again during non peak times. Thank you!

The windows didn't have a screen protector. We had two small children it could easily be an accident. No ocean view or partial view. Also loud with the construction next door.
