This hotel is not located on the beachfront. The elevators rarely functioned properly, forcing us to use the stairs. Although we were on the third floor, the elevator only took us to the second floor. Additionally, the hotel is an older building. They also charge ten dollars a day for parking.

Nice area. Close to restaurants and shopping in walking distance. Short stay. Didn't get a chance to try out the free bikes, kayaks or paddleboards. Refrigerator had a leak. there was soaked wash cloth tucked under front left leg that doubled as a prop to keep the fridge from wabbling. Thin walls, you can hear your neighbor's. Decently priced for short weekend trip

there was a woman working the breakfast and she was working by herself while two other people were just sitting at the front counter, and this lady was busting her butt and doing a great job in a bad situation.

Perfect place to stay

Amazing! Was me and my a 14 yr old girls. Loved location-walk over to public beach qnd to stores for shopping. Loved room-was spacious. Loved breakfast- delicious food and plenty of it. Pool was refreshing-plenty of lounges for laying out. Plenty of other seating options out there too. The free kayaks were so fun. Found lots of crabs on the private beach. Free bikes was nice to stroll the boardwalk. All the workers were so friendly and nice. We absolutley loved it and have already booked for labor day weekend and my daughters fall break at school.
The free kayaks were awesome!!!!
Pool was perfect with plenty of various seating areas and loungers. Even has a misting area you can sit in.
Private beach area, fishing and crab hunting was nice.
Again the kayaks were my girls favorite part!
