Happy Honeymoon
While the hotel clearly has a bit of age, mostly seen in the hallways and elevators, it is a perfectly decent stay. For five days staff was friendly and we had no issues. The breakfast is mostly carbs and starches with the option of a microwavable omelet fresh fruit and yogurt as well. We got a gift when checking in when we mentioned it was our honeymoon. No additional cost for parking. Anything we needed additional was no issue and got to us fast. Walk right out on the beach. Nice restaurant and gift shop/convenience store right on 1st level. We truly enjoyed ourselves.

Place was in a great location and the people were courteous and friendly. Hotel could use a couple updates and the balcony door could close a lot better.

The people here are all kind and welcoming and having a bar with live music, convince store, and gift shop on the 1st floor was definitely a plus and not something I saw advertised but definitely a great place and area to stay in especially for the pier fishers it’s the perfectly affordable nice spot

Our room floors felt like sand and even the beds did. Every time we went to get ice we couldn't get any.

The property was very clean, the hallway and the elevators were very dark. It could use some extra lighting. The staff were very accommodating.

The hotel is run down and in desperate need of a facelift. We would recommend passing on coffee and breakfast. While we will not be staying there again - it is convenient to restaurants, the pier & boardwalk.

Perfect location to everything we wanted to do. However the breakfast is awful. I have been coming to this hotel for years the breakfast used to be amazing hot breakfast bar.if you are going to call yourself a resort you should at least have a hot breakfast.
