The hotel was very clean and the location was great! Walking distance to the beach and restaurants. We were very disappointed however with the noise above our room that continued through the night into the morning. We asked to switch rooms the next day. They were very nice and moved us but that room was even worse. Our original room had a window that overlooked the pool and had an ocean view. The new room faced a brick wall and was across from a utility room with staff going in and out making noise. A bright light outside the room was shining through our window and I didn’t get sleep the second night either. We didn’t want to complain again after they had already moved us the first time. Other than that it was ok. Don’t stay there if you are looking for a quiet getaway.

I would never stay here again. They do not invest in keeping this property up at all. Lamps in room were broken, holes in wall, patch jobs on ceiling, blinds broken, maid service not up to par. Lounge/deck area had broken old tables and no chairs.. railing was extremely loose and insafe and carpeting old and disgusting. It was a very disappointing experience staying here. For the expensive price you can definitely find much better.

The floors were dirty in my room, the pool area under the chairs and ground had trash from other guests. For it to be a family friendly pool the shallow part of the pool is very small.

Its the usually, outdated motel along the beach. The guy that checked us in was awesome. Never really saw anyone else. The room was relatively clean, but I moved the lamp, and I was the only person to ever did so! The AC worked, bit it sounded like it was on its last leg. The room they stuck us in shouldnt even exist. We dubbed it the Harry Potter room. And they need some soundproofing. Or maybe the girl upstairs was wearing bricks for shoes.

The pool wasn’t attended to. The same garbage sat there our entire stay. The bathroom had no fan to circluate any air from the shower. Beds were clean, nice fridge size, pool wasn’t crowded, close to the beach and not far from the boardwalk

This was a suitable property to spend time with family. If your main purpose is to spend time on the beach and wild wood attractions and won’t spend too much time in your room then this is suitable for those needs. It was nice to see that a two bed room had division for semi privacy with one bed having a door and the other bed in the outer part. The toilet had a slow refill which can be annoying. It’s nice there are exterior seating to relax. The pool is a nice touch but was occupied by large families.

Overall nice stay
Front desk was very nice when we arrived. Parking was no issue. Our room was as expected, clean but dated. Pool was very clean and staff was pleasant. Good for the price if you are not looking for anything fancy. There is a bike rental place across the street and a basketball court as well. Easy walk to the boardwalk.
