Think “spirit airlines” charges with “extended stay” facilities (dirty and smells moldy). You get charged hotel prices just bc it is next to the boardwalk, but it’s truly a motel. Theres no restaurant available but an overpriced coffee place. You have to walk across the parking lot to get to the front desk. The deposit charged is actually an open tab to all the things they try to charge you. Paid $300+ a night and there weren’t even complementary bottles of water. Even the chairs by the pool are “for rent”. Find a better place in this area.

Great family vacay

We had a great stay. Our room walked out to the pool area. Pool area was great and I enjoyed going to the beach directly from the pool area. Weekend evening cocktail bar was a nice touch. Had breakfast and coffee on property. It was quick and convenient. Will be back.

The property was in a great location, walking distance to shops and restaurants. It was also steps from the beach. I booked two rooms separately through Expedia and each room came with a $45 parking credit. The hotel would only allow one credit even though each reservation came with that credit. This was very disappointing. Also, the property was very clean but the carpet in my room had a hole in it! This was no big deal but the for the price I paid for each room this is something I would not expect. I told them about it when I left so hopefully this will be fixed for the next guest.

Superb property right on the beach.. Quaint instead of cookie-cutter sprawling. Funky, laid back, Art Deco vibe. Staff about the friendliest people you'll ever meet. Stunning views from the oceanfront balcony rooms. A-plus. We'll be back.
