Couple stayed for 2 nights. The location and price is best thing about the room, right in gront of boardwalk. The room is small, the bathroom floor was dirty, and the bed was uncomfortable. We also had the corner bottom room next to stairs (106) and it was sooo loud. The heater also took long to warm so we were freezing at the start of night.

Hotel itself was clean and the ocean fromt room was amazing. Sadly, our room was right above their cafe and they started blaring music every day before 7 that felt like it was in our room itself. Walls and floors are thin, could hear the upstairs unit walking non stop, sounding like elephants ahove.

The last several years of visiting the property has been good. This visit had issues. The lock on the balcony door was broken and would not close properly and whistled all night long from the wind. The sliding bathroom door was very difficult to close. Lighting in the bathroom was poor. The water in the bathroom would get at best luke warm. It's unfortunate because the hotel is in such a great location.

We stay every time we visit my daughter in college. Love this place! Clean rooms and great location. And the staff is awesome! There’s only 1 person working the desk so if you show up to check in or need something, be patient because they’re probably helping someone else. :) They’re very kind and accommodating. My only gripe is, I wish they had microwaves in their rooms. Some have 2 mini fridges. But none have microwaves. But there’s one in the lobby for all to use. So not a deal breaker. :) Thanks for a great one night stay this time! See you soon for a longer one. ❤️
