Cute spot
Nice little spot for a quick off-season spot. Located close to everything but just far off enough to be a little quieter.

Visited the property off season, it was clean, had heated pools open and a beautiful ocean view! We enjoyed our stay, the proximity to the ocean was excellent and close to stores, bars and restaurants.

Our stay was great. The only issue we had was that there was hair left in the bathroom from the last person who stayed there. I'm not one to complain so I just cleaned it myself, not a big deal. Other than that, our stay was great! The room was comfy and the rest of it was clean!

Property could use some renovation. Doors to room could be easily opened, no deadbolt. Close to beach and walkable. Parking is a little tough. Overall an acceptable stay but a little overpriced for weekdays stay.

Room was spacious and clean. So many things to do in the area that are within walking distance and the beach is right behind. I recommend getting the ocean view to see the sun rise in the mornings.

It just wasn’t worth the amount of money that you paid for the weekend. They need to update the rooms. It feels like it’s 1990… It’s too much money for what they give you, don’t give you, the Internet was terrible, and the rooms are dated

The property and amenities are very old. The train that passes night and day is excessively noisy and wakes you up at night.
But overall, very closed to the beach and near the pier and other city attractions.

We chose this hotel due to the location and the hot tub. Both were excellent. It’s right on the beach and walkable to the pier.
We expected the room to be dingy, but it wasn’t bad and was very clean. The bathroom was very outdated and we particularly had a hard time with the shower temp. It’s super sensitive and quickly goes from scalding to freezing. Unfortunately once we found the right temp, it would change on its own. We tried to take speedy showers so we didn’t burn ourselves or freeze.
The other issue we had was actually finding our room. The woman who check us in said room 99 in building E. After walking around for a while we found room 99 in building F. We asked some staff for help. They suggested trying room 66 which worked. They said it happens all the time. It would be great if that was relayed to the front desk so they read the key the right way.
Overall, decent beach hotel.

Great place. Only complaints would be the beds were very hard and the train that went by several times a night. Otherwise location, accessibility and convenience was great. Easy check in. Easy parking. Easy check out. Room was what I expected. Balcony was lovely for the morning sun.

We had a balcony room overlooking the pool and ocean. Loved sitting on the balcony and watching a quick storm roll in. Even got to see a rainbow afterwards. The rooms are dated but the bed was comfortable. Our room was clean and quiet. We had no issue finding parking in the lot. And it’s in a great location.
