I’d stay again!

Loved the space. Breakfast was delicious Pool and hot tub were nice. Fireside marshmallow making was yummy (but beware you have to pay $30 for 1 hour… that felt steep… likely wouldn’t do that again… took away 1 star for that and the fact I bought my own materials because they ran out. Seemed like it would’ve been free for that reason). The shower was clogged but they fixed it right away. Driving distance to great food and the boardwalk. Great place for business or for families.

When booking through Expedia the hotels give you usually one of their worse rooms and tell you “thats what you reserved.” If we ask to change it. They tell you to contact the third party. This has happened to me now on 3 different occasions. The description on Expedia is the same as on the hotel website but the rooms are not. At this hotel we were put in the ADA room. The toilet was broken and the shower flooded the whole bathroom.

A Few issues but over all great

It was fresh, bright, clean and well appointed. I do not like that you are forced to pay for use and pay for valet service. The guys came about the tub. It remained slow draining afterwards. Theonly other thing is that whom whomever they assign of room above us to were incredibly noisy? And their children ran back-and-forth, not just ran stumped. It would seem was horrible. Have children? So I understand that I tried to just deal with it, but it was ridiculous. Add I went to complain about it in the desk.Clerk kinda had an attitude with me telling me that.Oh well it's still before ten. At that point I told her, well, then you need to move me or you need to move them black. Anybody that you put those people below are going to have an issue. If the floors are that shallow, then they should probably put people with young children and families on lower floors or A floor in between people or something because that was really, really unnerving. Otherwise I had an enjoyable stay..
