It was nice to have the double king room, we had two separate bedrooms. We spent time at the fire pit and patio and it was right across from the volleyball courts. Although our room wasn’t ready we were able to leave the car which was nice. Staff was very helpful and friendly.

We had a great (partial) beach view from our room, even though we were on the street. It was really fun to be so close to the Boardwalk, even though the weather was rainy when we visited. Parking was on the interior of the hotel, and felt safe. It was very convenient to walk to Ideal and Firefish Restaurants - the hotel restaurant was being renovated. The staff was very friendly too.
