The hotel was beautiful and location met my needs for the event I was attending. The room had nice decor and balcony overlooking the boardwalk. 👍 The only observation was the tub needed resurfacing. The staff was friendly was welcoming at all times. I would stay here again .

This was my fourth stay at the hotel but it’s been a few years since my last visit and I noticed the property is showing its age. In my room the paint and wallpaper were peeling, tub surface was peeling, there was a very strong odor in the hallways/room and the top drawer of our dresser wouldn’t stay closed. On the positive side, the staff is very friendly and helpful and the location - right on the boardwalk - can’t be beat.
