Beautiful property across from the beach and a short walk to the boardwalk. The rooms are extremely clean and updated nicely. The rooftop deck is comfortable and quiet. There is a coffee shop onsite and amazing food steps away. One of the best stays we have had. We will be back.

This hotel is nice and clean, however I do not recommend big SUVs parking in the garage. It is convenient place to stay. It is across the street from the boardwalk and close to everything. As far as the stay we had a great time but the parking could be a problem if you have a large vehicle. We had a balcony with ocean so was able to see everything going on.
