I loved staying here. The people who there are very nice. It’s a good walking distance to the boardwalk about 8-9 minutes. You don’t have to drive to get to the boardwalk. Rooms are comfortable and clean.

Sweet hotel, a bit dated.

Quaint little beach hotel. The staff was all very friendly and the pool area was well kept. The room was dated and a bit musty. Otherwise an ok option for the area.

Great location, friendly staff

The Amethyst is a good, basic beach hotel. It has a fantastic location and a pool. There are not a lot of extras or ambiance, but it's a good spot to take the family for a few days at the beach.

The property is old, and the room is small, but staff is very friendly, and the room was clean. Convenient location and affordable price make this a good option for someone who wants to be walking distance to the boardwalk without breaking the bank.
