Refrigerator in the room was good. No coffee pot or any cups whatsoever in the room and no ice machine. They did give you one 5 lb bag of ice per day if you went to the front desk and ask for it. So called breakfast was very minimal some cereal juice and muffins. Free parking was a plus and location to the beach overall it was okay.

Staff was great, even helped bring our luggage up the steps, do not realize had no elevators, the steps weren't too bad. Room was clean, ac/heat works great, the mini fridge kept my drinks icy! Location was great for walking to and from the boardwalk! Only improvement would be the pool, tried it and the sunscreen residue was very apparent in the water. And the size of the pool

The staff was friendly and helpful, and the room was decent. It is a little small, but that's factored into the price, which was the best available at the time. There weren't many others competing in that price range, either. Also, there's a balcony, so there's something to be said for that. Parking is convenient enough. My room was already cold with A.C. when I got there, which was really nice. The bathroom looked recently remodeled, and the tub/shower was practically new. The bed was comfortable enough, and the basic amenities are covered. Walking distance to the boardwalk is great- the location is the reason you're paying considerably more than the room is worth (which is still a good value, but only by local standards, and only if you're willing to forgo the luxuries that the local hotels afford you). The breakfast is very simple, but still a very nice and helpful gesture. If I had any inconvenience, I would have preferred to have a key that worked on the deadbolt lock, to secure the room better while away. All told, it's obvious they care about the place, and they do their best to accommodate in the face of local economics; the entire city is a tourist trap, but still pretty great. Just be prepared to spend a lot and/or downgrade your expectations.

Room was cheap, clean, and well maintained. There was a lot of noise from people out in the street the first night. I only slept 2 hours that night. Not really the hotel's fault, but some sound proofing wouldnt hurt. I didnt try the breakfast.

Place is very nice! Very close to the boardwalk/beach. We barely had to use our car during our stay which was a goal of ours. From the inn to the inlet (large parking lot at the end of board walk), it took us 15-20 minutes to walk. Mind you I was pregnant so it could’ve probably been faster if I didn’t have a heavy load 😂. Love that we got a small bag of ice for free everyday. It fit perfectly in our compact cooler. The pool was small but my kids still managed to enjoy it. Definitely no diving or jumping in it though. The breakfast didn’t offer much especially for picky eaters but we managed. Still left to the beach with something in our tummies. Something I thought was going to be awesome, they had a shower on the side of the building… it didn’t work. I was super excited to utilize that 😂 so pretty sad when it wouldn’t even turn on. But the room was nice and they cleaned it well everyday which was always nice to come back to after a day at the beach! Awesome little refresh to the room. I loved the porch! It was bothersome that we couldn’t turn the porch light off tho. But the curtains blacked it out well still. All in all, 7.9 out of 10! I’d stay again. 🙂
