Nice but not for all

The hotel was room was great and in a perfect location. The only downfall was the breakfast. There was no real food. Only a crappy muffin, cheap granola bar and a tiny water. It advertises a continental breakfast which was not the case. Also I'm allergic to eggs and could literally not eat a single food item at the hotel. bummer.

The rooms are very nice. Bed was comfortable and shower had good pressure and temperature if you let the water run for 5 minutes. Although we were right by the pool area, it closes at 9 and no one abused that. Location is fantastic, near all the attractions, and Crackers restaurant next door is great. Breakfast is a bag with muffin, apple, granola bar and water (no coffee). The coffee shop in the lobby is expensive and the coffee is TERRIBLE (very weak). But there's a Wawa nearby with better coffee.

No breakfast. Considering the cost of hotel room per night. They only give you a bag with a water bottle a muffin and an orange, if you ask for it at the counter.

Wait until construction is done

I absolutely love the location and the tours offered. It was very loud and not relaxing! They're constructing a new building they were also working on the stairs which included a jackhammer all day. There was always wo Loud disel construction trucks going around. Nothing like starting your morning on vacation with the backup beeping of a truck and continued throughout the day.

Not great, not terrible. Realize you're staying at more of a basic motel. Roadside with no perks. Bag breakfast of an apple and a granola bar. Fairly clean but very basic.

An unbelievable location for the price! Directly on the water, all possible adventures were only steps from the room. The room was sparse but clean. Comfy bed, nice hot shower. Tip: don’t be near the pool if you’re getting up super early, folks were enjoying it until it closed at 10:00.
