Disappointment

I didn’t love the dog friendly property because dogs were barking all night. Also the room next to us appeared to be living in the hotel room which is not the kind of property I stay at. Refrigerator froze our drinks, sink was scalding hot water and the shower was Luke warm. Won’t come back.

This is an older property, but clean. The microwave and fridge came in handy. There was not a coffee maker in the room.. which would have been nice to have. It you are 40 or older… the mattress may pose a challenge for your body. :) overall… great location! Can’t beat an across the street walk to the beach and boardwalk!

The property is older but it is well kept.The room was clean and everything worked. It is quiet as far as noise from other rooms but it can be noisy with the cars going down the street at all hours of the night. Staff were all amazing. The parking lot is small but location is right behind the boardwalk within walking distance.
