The location was great. The beach and boardwalk were outside our door. I felt safe. The hotel offered towels and chairs to use at the beach. My husband and I had a great time. There is a variety of restaurants and coffee shops close by. We do not need to rent a car. We used Lyft for transportation to other point of interests and airport.

We really enjoyed our stay! The location was great and within walking distance of everything we wanted to do. Beach access was super easy. The hotel had chairs and umbrellas for us. The parking was challenging during the day, but by the evening time, there were plenty of spots available. Overall, we had a great experience. we’re definitely stay here again..

Super great location. We did not know the parking space allowed only four vehicles and cost $50 per day. Entire structure itself was very small. I imagine only two units of whole rooms had any kind of view but rest of the rooms didn’t have any view except the building right across by the window. Only benefit was just for the location right step onto the boardwalk.

Ocean front - couldn't be any better! The staff were so friendly and accommodating! Our room was small and in the back, but with an ocean front hotel, who spends time in the room? It was perfect for us, and we will go back!
