Overall nice stay, right on the ocean. The boardwalk is right across the street and you are walking distance to two restaurants. The only downfall was that the carpet in our room could use a deep clean or to be replaced. There were several visible stains. Other than that, nice property with knowledgeable and friendly staff.
