This hotel works great for me, i am out birding very early & really just need a place to refuel and rest each night. I liked the smaller pillows on the bed vs most hotels have overstuffed big pillows. The room maid service was great ( please remember to tip these folks, they work hard) & the office is always very friendly & helpful.

Room was clean, furniture had seen some better days but everything was clean. Staff was more than accommodating and kind. We had to check in super late and they got up with us and got us checked in and settled with smiles on their faces. Super close to the boardwalk and perfect for a place to shower and sleep.

The room was large and very clean. The heat / ac unit was on the louder side but worked. Huge shower with ample hot water. The property is in an excellent location right off of the boardwalk. There were 2 in room refrigerators available and a microwave. The main issue is the parking lot. It’s tiny and if full impossible to get in and out of.
