The room was overall very spacious and clean. Kitchen was equipped with all items necessary for cooking. Staff was generally nice. We only had an issue with one gentleman when checking in that charged some guest $20 a day for parking but did not charge other guest. Ultimately we got a refund for that. If we would have to pay to park at the hotel we already paid 100’s of dollar for a room to stay at, I would not return. Otherwise no issues with the hotel or location. Very close to the boardwalk and other attractions.

We stayed in a three bed room. Which we had no clue it was across the street. It was small and like attic you had to watch your head. The worst part of all was it had bed bugs. The manager was rude and act like it was out fault. The girl the next morning at the desk was very nice. But I would never stay there dont wast Your money not worth the price or the bed bugs.

When we first checked in they gave us keys to a room someone was already in. Then we found ants between our sheets. Dead and alive. They said they can either give us new sheets or move us to a room where we had to share a bathroom with strangers. New sheets didn't solve the ant problem but it's better than sharing a bathroom with God knows who! There's no breakfast but whatever no big deal. But the surprise $20 a day, yes per day to park at a hotel that your paying to stay at is a bit over the top.

Honestly terrible. i went around end of july and it was horrible. And i hate to say it, as much money as i paid, they still charged me an extra 160 on property for parking, after i had already paid for it when booking. the first night we woke up to the ceiling leaking water and just progressively got worse. they were trying to make us figure it out as they had “not one room available.” this was out first time booking a room just us two, and it was a horrible experience. staff was rude and didn’t help at all.
