Great spot for a last minute one night stay. Room was clean ( couple dirty spots on bathroom doors, but nothing major). Mattress was not the best, but it was one night. Walking distance to Pier and the Boardwalk! Room had a small fridge, which was nice.

Pretty decent and very convenient. Right by the beach, walking distance about five minutes at most. It was good for the one night stay. Parking is tight and at a slope. Overall, I recommend and will return đź‘Ť

This place was pretty good. I was clean, but don’t expect lush comfort. This is a clean place to sleep that’s close to the beach, and I mean within walking distance. Also the parking is extremely steep. We had no problems, and the AC was wonderful. The front desk staff was very friendly and helpful. If you want a good place within walking distance of the wharf and the boardwalk, this is a good option.

We have stayed here before. They had updated their rooms since our last visit. The rooms are very nice and welcoming. The parking is tight if you have a large vehicle, but manageable. Wish they would coffee in the lobby.
Great ocean view from 2nd floor.
