Older property in a great location on the boardwalk. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The beds in my room were very broken down and uncomfortable, as well as the pillows. Two of the pillows had strong body odors from a previous guest which was very off putting. The hotel could use a little updating but other than that it was a good stay for the cost.

The check in was easy, smooth and quick. The gentleman, Douglas helped us and was very pleasant and informative. Made our check in a really good experience ! The room was very clean and had everything we can possibly need. The staff was friendly and courteous. The beach was right across from us and we had a room with a side ocean view from the balcony which was a plus. I'll definitively go back there and stronly recommend it !

Front desk staff are friendly, check in was easy. Loved having an efficiency kitchen which saved us money being able to make some meals in the room. Having streaming services on the TV was a plus. Beds were ok, but should be updated soon. Steps to the beach and boardwalk. Looked like all rooms had some of an ocean view from the side. Would definitely stay here again.
