The property itself is nice and was very convenient for our family. 3 different pools, private beach and the boardwalk is a short walk away. There were 2 things we were not happy with. The mattresses were rock hard and the sink is outside of the bathroom. Besides that, we enjoyed pur stay.

Great location but hotel needs updating

This hotel is all about location. Private beach and two pools were awesome to have and so convenient. We stayed in the building beachside near ice cream store. The entire hotel can use updating. The rooms and bathrooms are very dated especially bathroom at the pool. Our mattress was awful with springs sticking in our back. The air conditioning system does not run continuously so when it comes on, you are freezing to death even with low fan and when its not running, the room is super hot. The cafe closed 2 hours early on Friday which was very annoying. We were in town for a wedding so i am not sure i would stay here again. Expensive price for not so great accommodations.

The property is located perfectly for beach lovers. The cafe was excellent for breakfast. The service was the best. However, the motel rooms are old! They need better beds, better showers, better sinks, better mattresses and general updating.
