This is a nice property, especially for guests with kids. There were a few things I didn’t care for most notably the ambient noise level I heard at night. A humming noise coming from the indoor parking area. Probably caused by machines of some sort. Also the parking spaces are narrow which when coupled with steel poles supporting the roof make it difficult to get in and out.

Didn’t like the fact that the bathrooms were very small and tight. No table & chairs to sit at and no refreshments area to get a bucket of ice. You had too buy a bag of ice

There were no sheets/pillows or blankets for the pullout sofa bed and having to go look for some was inconvenient but everything else was nice. Especially the view from our balcony. I would stay again. The staff was great, very friendly. Loved the location.

I liked how the pool is in close proximity to the room, how the room is equipped with all the necessary appliances, and how comfortable the bed is. However, due to the terrible weather we couldn’t use the pool or enjoy the beach. Plus the vending machine only accepts cash.

Great place to stay! Very convenient for walking to the boardwalk. Rooms are clean. A couple of the lights/outlets didn’t work in our room but it wasn’t a huge deal, that would be my only “complaint”

Fishing for good location

Check in is at 3:00 pm, check out at 10:00 am, also pool is closed by 6:00 pm, the mattress of the bed was a bit hard for us, we liked our breakfast at the cafe.
