This hotel was fantastic for our family. The room with two king beds was actually a suite, and so our kids had their own separate room. The pool and hot tubs were excellent, and we were just a short walk from the beach. We would definitely stay here again!

The check in staff was very friendly and helpful. We got a great room and the beach/pier was a quick walk away. My kids were excited to swim after dinner and delighted that the hot tubs (yes 2) were hot and the pool was warm. The hotel was quiet and the beds were comfortable.

The hotel is more like a motel, but the rooms were clean, spacious, and the staff were great. It's located in a great location, a very short walk to the boardwalk, the amusement park, and a hosts of shops and restaurants.
