The front desk staff were very kind and accommodating for our late check-in. The room was spotless. You can tell the room was beautifully upgraded from floor to ceiling as well as the bathroom. The beds were comfortable and surroundings were clean & quiet. Breakfast was simple(fruit, cereal, granola bars, tea & coffee) but perfect to tie us over til we went out to brunch. We will definitely be back again.

Wife beater motel. No front desk personnel to deal with emergencies. No noise hours enforced. People do what they want. Not very safe. It gets two stars instead of one because it's walking distance from the boardwalk.

The key to the door never worked. We kept on going back to the front desk to get them rekeyed. Just was very annoyed. Plus they wouldn’t split the bill with my friend and I. The gentleman didn’t understand. I wouldn’t come back.

Booked last minute for a holiday weekend. Only thing near the boardwalk that was under 500/night. for over 300/night it was definitely not worth that cost. The pool was dirty (bandages and other debris floating in it) freezing cold, not heated at all. If the pool was a little heated and cleaner I would find the cost to be OK. the room was clean, but the whole building looks and feels like it is going to fall down. Parking is TIGHT. Owner said 24 rooms and 24 spaces to park. A couple cars parked where there weren't designated space though. Back into a spot or you will have difficulty getting out.

Wonderful location, very clean and comfortable room, breakfast was very lacking, and the AC unit wasn’t very good so therefore the room stayed fairly warm.
