2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The stay was good. Nice rooms. The only issue we had was that we paid ahead of time to extend our check-out time to 1pm, and this information was not passed along to the cleaning person. She was visibly upset that we were not out of our room at 11am. I had to go down to the office to get the check-out time confirmed. Once confirmed that we had paid for a check-out time of 1pm, the cleaning person walked away (again, visibly upset) that she could not clean the room at 11am. This was not a big deal on my end but could have been avoided had this information been properly communicated.

Elizabeth, 4-night trip

8/10 Very good

The property is older but it is well kept.The room was clean and everything worked. It is quiet as far as noise from other rooms but it can be noisy with the cars going down the street at all hours of the night. Staff were all amazing. The parking lot is small but location is right behind the boardwalk within walking distance.

ALY, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Disappointment

I didn’t love the dog friendly property because dogs were barking all night. Also the room next to us appeared to be living in the hotel room which is not the kind of property I stay at. Refrigerator froze our drinks, sink was scalding hot water and the shower was Luke warm. Won’t come back.
