It was nice to step out the door and be right on the boardwalk. Everyone was friendly and helpful. The room was large and well equipped... loved having a sofa as well as an office chair. The only down side was room service... the food was great, but it was packed like take out and I did not enjoy eating out of a box.

The property is aging and undergoing renovations. The room we got isn’t the room we booked as it was apparently under renovation. Our water view room we paid for wasn’t much of one at all. More like a side view. The hotel is in a convenient spot though which we enjoyed.

The location to all the shops and restaurants was perfect...loved the little coffee shop downstairs for breakfast in the morning, and having a restaurant on site is always handy. Being on the boardwalk and oceanfront was awesome. The hotel was half a little dated and half renovated so will have to plan another trip to see all the new amenities, what it looks like they have planned will be fabulous. One thing they need to change and hopefully this is coming with the updates is to do away with the double beds and at least switch to Queens! Doubles just dont cut it anymore lol Otherwise we will definitely be back
