Loved that this hotel was just across from the beach and the boardwalk only a few steps away. The bed was comfortable but the air conditioner was so loud you couldn’t hear the tv and it constantly woke me up at the night. Room could definitely use an upgrade. The rooftop with hammocks was a cool little place to relax and overlook the beach. Overall, I’d stay here again if we are ever back in that area.
