Four sisters getaway
Our stay was pleasant, the staff was polite and very helpful. The room we had was a Oceanside, with two double beds. The room was to small, with four people and our suitcases it was very cramped. Will not do the same type of room, need to get a larger room or a different hotel. It rained three of the five days. But we shopped, ate, had two days at the beach had a great time. They were also doing improvements at the hotel.

Great staff, good beachfront location
The room was small but clean, bathroom small but clean. The staff was great - from check in to the cleaning staff to checkout - courteous, very helpful & great service. Great beachfront location, convenient to the Pier & the strip shopping & restaurants. Easy to park, easy to get to from the Interstate. Overall a good experience & I would stay there again.

Great Location for the price
The desk and housekeeping staff was very friendly; parking was easily accessible to the room; the room was clean, although small, but had enough room for an additional cot; beds were very comfortable; the location was central to all activities; the breakfast was sparse, but adequate; great place for the price if you don't plan on spending much time in the room; would return if the price was right

Overpriced, Dirty, False Breakfast
This was the worst for the price hotel we ever booked on [...]. The room was small, no closets, and dust was never cleaned off the tables, dressers and refrigerator. The dressers were chipped badly.They advertised a deluxe breakfast buffet included in the [...]price and it was Continental Style! We stayed from Sat to Wed in conditions like this. They only thing your paying for is the view and location to the boardwalk and pier. For the price I would not reccommend this hotel to anybody............
