Staff was kind and welcoming, the Motel was a short walk away from the Seaside Heights Boardwalk, directly next to the fire/police station, the atmosphere was safe and accommodating, the pool was clean, it was a nice retreat after a long day of walking the beach, boardwalk, games, rides, food and many margaritas. Rooms had AC too, absolutely wonderful <3
