Budget Friendly

Stay was fine for a short weekend getaway. Hotel is older and run down but all rooms have ocean facing balconies. There is a small pool but no where near there size needed for an hotel this size. Easy access to the beach and boardwalk. Our toilet didn’t work and ran all weekend and parking is down the street from the hotel a few blocks which was hard with someone in a wheelchair. We ate at the restaurant on our first night and food service took forever and the food was just so so. Overall not a bad stay but for a little more money you could probably find nicer accommodations.

I never leave reviews but this hotel was AWFUL. Staff at the front desk never smiled and acted like they hated their jobs. They were so cranky and always seemed so bothered when guests went to counter. They would rather watch tv in the lobby and ignore guests. Our balcony at check in was dirty and just overall the entire hotel was dirty. There was BLOOD on our balcony curtains!! There was always an inconvenient wait for the two elevators. Just a gross hotel all around. Will never ever recommend.

Pros: low price, great location right on the beach, all rooms are ocean view, staff very friendly, rooms were clean, daily housekeeping, restaurant on site. Also plenty of food and activity options within walking distance. Cons: Pool is not heated and pool area is pretty small with not enough loungers or chairs. Downside is that you may not find anywhere to sit, upside is pool area is never very crowded. Water is pretty cold though. Onsite restaurant (although not directly affiliated with the hotel) is not great. Food is average and way overpriced. Along with the mandatory 20% gratuity, I would opt for someplace else. Overall, this place is a good value for the money.
