Parking was $5 a day which isn’t bad for a tourist area. Hotel was nice and short walk to the boardwalk . The room was very clean but I think housekeeping forgot to clean the bathroom. Quite messy. But overall a nice stay.

Hotel was mediocre enough, but the room we stayed in likely had bed bugs as we noticed we had taken some back home with us after. We've tried to deduce where else they may have come from, but no other visited locations make sense.

The waves was a great place to stay for a couple of days-convenient to most walkable attractions and the beach. Staff was helpful and very cordial. We would stay again for sure!

Disliked: Amenities
Because of a convention being in town. All of the handicapped parking was used for hotel guests to sit in their lawn chairs and talk and eat. Lots of people congregated there making it extremely difficult to get to the front door. The staff really didn’t care. I left 2 days early because of parking difficulties. The girl at the desk promised she would call me back that day to let me know.After a few calls back and talking to various people who said they would call me back, still waiting. Terrible customer service by this hotel.

Okay but won’t be back

Front desk mislead us on how the street parking worked. We were supposed too get a tag with a permit on it and we had to wi d up asking for it because of the way the cars were parked in their lot. You had to leave your car key with the front desk and they would move your car, if necessary, which my husband didn’t want to do. Bed was comfortable but the bathroom needed more cleaning I.e., faucets in both sink and shower needed better cleaning. Bathroom was floor was a little messy too. Ceiling panel above shower was rusty and water was coming up in shower when it was in use.
