The location was perfect. Room was clean, cracks in ceiling. Only thing was the free breakfast really isn't free because at check-in, we had to pay in additional $31 resort fee, and then it was serial oatmeal,bananas, oranges.package muffins or cereal bars.bagels. The people were friendly and location was fabulous

Clean

This hotel is clean, not updated but clean. The staff is friendly and welcoming. Room service came twice a day sometimes to check if we needed anything. The free breakfast was awesome! They had muffins, fruit ,bagels, cream cheese, cereal.. plenty more! The gym also had a beach view and under the hotel had two restaurants and stores! Super convenient!! Also not to mention it’s near stores and the rides! Overall, great experience.

My party signed up for a three-day two-night stay, but after the second day we bought a fourth-day and third night stay. We found the room very clean and appointed with designer bed linens. When first moving in we had trouble with the TV and it was addressed immediately. All the personnel were courteous and dedicated. The included breakfast was the standard fare of instant or pre-packaged muffins, bagels, toast, French toast, yogurt, juice, coffee, etc. and we could eat as much as we wanted (in one sitting from 7 to 10 AM). The beachfront property was very pleasant, and the balconies provided a secure way to enjoy the views. The access to the beach was immediate, and there were shops and restaurants a few steps away. The elevators wear and tear betrayed the age of the building but other than the elevators, the room seemed fresh and renewed. The covered parking structure was easy to access from the guest areas at all times.

The condition of the property is the only thing I have to complain about. Only one elevator functioned during my stay and it was very inconvenient as I was on the 5th floor. The bedrooms were okay, they were not dirty but not clean either. When I wanted to use the microwave, I found it was not connected, so I had to connect it myself. The hotel room phone also was not connected. Online the room seemed a lot bigger to me but they were actually quite small. Overall the staff were friendly and helpful, but the building (excluding the lobby) needs some much TLC.

The sandcastel resort was not clean, and the breakfast seemed frozen with poor quality. Room service was also disappointing. However, the area around the resort was very nice — the boardwalk was close by, walkable, and very clean.

We loved the location and the fact that it was right at the fishing pier! Lots of eateries around and the live music in hotel bar was nice! All was good, but the property needs some updates. And the "complimentary breakfast" was handled very uniquely! We had to give them a "ticket" to go inside. Then we were in a long line like "school cafeteria style" only to have very select food options, which was not your usual waffles, eggs fruit...There was no meat at all?? But overall, okay stay!

The staff were super inviting and accommodating. We arrived a few hours early to check-in but were able to register, receive our parking pass, and have our room made up within an hour. The hotel is conveniently placed near the pier, Fun Park, and a beautiful beachfront view with multiple exits to street level. The two Ocean’s 14 restaurants attached to the hotel are also worth checking out with reasonable prices and exceptional food.
