"The room was clean and the staff was helpful. We enjoyed the pool and the restaurant during our stay. We love that the hotel is on the boardwalk and the trolley line, but removed from the busier part of the beach."

"Everything was great except no king beds. And the queen bed was AWFUL. Mattress left us rolling towards the middle - like it had a hole in the middle - or box spring was broken. Came back very sore. Otherwise… WONDERFUL LOCATION. Great staff and amenities. No complaints otherwise."
