We had a smoke alarm in our room that went off every five minutes. It took hotel maintenance over 30 minutes to come “fix it” he just ripped it off the wall and left. Old, outdated, but beachfront and on the boardwalk

It’s an older property that is well maintained. Our room was small, but very comfortable. The staff is friendly and welcoming. The hotel is affordable and right on boardwalk/beach and they have a parking lot for their guests directly behind the hotel. We were happy with our decision to stay at the Lankford.

The location is wonderful staff was excellent hotel...it was my 1st time staying in a Hotel/Lodge. We only got it for one night until our check-in with the Airbnb. It got the job done. Also they gave me a late checkout because we arrived late night. The bed and the air in the place is all that.

Love the old school beach house feel. If you want updated and modern, this place is not for you. If you want nostalgic and cozy, book here. We stayed in the Lodge Building. Small, but clean bathroom. Clean room, friendly & helpful staff. Not a plush hotel bed, but clean and comfortable. The cafe downstairs in the main building smelled great in the morning, although I did not eat there. Each floor had a common sitting area with a beachy feel (and a microwave). Would definitely stay again.
