7.4/10
We had a pleasant stay at this hotel, particularly enjoying the spacious oceanfront suite and the easy access to both pools. The location is a huge plus, as it provides a quieter environment while still being steps from the boardwalk. However, we faced some frustrating issues with parking and a lack of responsive service from management, which detracted from our overall experience.
Rooms
8.0
The oceanfront suite was spacious and had a great layout, although it felt a bit narrow between the beds and dressers. Overall, the room was clean and well-maintained.
Service
5.0
While most of the staff were nice, we encountered some significant issues with management regarding parking and requests for additional supplies. This inconsistency in service was a letdown.
Location
9.0
The hotel is ideally located right on the boardwalk but still manages to be a bit removed from the noise, which is perfect for those wanting a quieter stay.
Dining
7.0
Having the option to order beverages and pizza at the pool was a nice touch, but we didn't explore many dining options during our stay.
Facilities
8.0
The indoor and outdoor pools were both clean and enjoyable, providing a great way to relax. We appreciated the ability to unwind in either area depending on the weather.
