As busy as the area is we were well taken care of. Food and drinks readily available both on property and all around us. We had a blast. Only negative is the elevators are slow. But not enough to not use regularly. Staff was friendly and very helpful.

Exceptionally clean, staff absolutely wonderful. We arrived early, but Shadae got us ready for check in, got us a parking pass, and we went out to enjoy the beach and boardwalk. We were texted when the room was ready, so all we had to do was come in and pick up the keys. It sits on the boardwalk, but pretty much at the end of where all the fun stuff starts/ends heading towards the ferris wheels. Will stay here again!!!

Perfect for a family vacation! We were happy with our room and the service! It was located so close to many things and it was all walkable. We also enjoyed using the indoor pool especially since the weather wasn't the greatest the whole time we were there. We would definitely stay here again!
