Hotel is very dated for the price. You are paying for proximity to Boardwalk, beach, and shops. The hotel could use an entire property makeover. Especially with a brand new competitor next door for similar price. This is our first stay and will not return. We will stay next door at the new hotel.

We had the family room. Two king beds with a door making it two separate rooms. Perfect for us because I had two teens who stayed up late! Our view was the parking lot but no biggie. The bathroom was a bit odd because the floor was shared with the toilet & shower! So after showering, the floor was soaked. We had to put down towels so our feet wouldn’t touch the ground. That was the only thing I didn’t like about the room. Superb location, directly across from the volleyball courts/beach. The two decks were amazing in the morning! They’re open from 9-9. Front desk employees were super nice and helpful! Free coffee and tea was nice as well!

Really liked the patio facing the beach and ocean Really hated that they charged $35 for parking in their lot and charged a $30 “Expedia fee”. What is that?? I have never had a fee added before for using Expedia.
