Kimberly, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

First time staying here and it was really convenient! Walking out the boardwalk through the arcade it’s about a 2 minute walk to the room. Check in was a breeze. Park, check in, and front desk helps you find a spot. Would definitely stay here again.

John, 1-night trip

4/10 Poor

The location was the best. The room was dated so bad that the 60s are calling. Dam....
Jamie, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

This is my second time here and once again, pros and cons. The last time we were here, the room were outdated but AC works. Now this year, rooms were renovated but AC didn't work this time. The only complaint was the bed platform makes loud bang noise. I'll definitely be back only if the price is right.
brian, 2-night trip

6/10 Okay

Great location for walking to Boardwalk and the pier. Room was clean, but quirky… bed made noise, small TV, no lamps or dim lights, broken toilet roll holder.

Property is close to board walk which was nice but parking was absolutely awful. And the suite room had no tv in the extra room and was very small
