I've stayed at this hotel for many years before the remodel and the remodel is just wonderful upgrades are nice and the rooms are roomy. I stayed in a wonderful. The upgrades with two double beds and a living area separate from the bedroom with a balcony and windows that open enjoy the sea sea air. The prices have gone up, but I stayed during the week and it was very reasonable. I am looking forward to staying there again. And for delicious chowder, we ate at the ideal bar and Grill at the corner before you enter the boardwalk highly recommend it. Bummer the pool was not open.
