Categories

Cleanliness
8
Multiple reviews praise cleanliness and 'super clean' rooms and public areas, but there are notable negatives (reported mold in bathrooms, carpets needing cleaning, a terrible smell in one room, and flies) that lower the score.
Service
9.3
Majority of comments highlight very helpful, polite and friendly staff (corrected wrong booking date, attentive front-desk, praised as 'BEST staff'), though a few strong complaints exist about lack of empathy for an overbooking situation and a disputed security deposit.
Location
9
Location is frequently described positively (convenient to Atlantic City, good location for visits), with several guests explicitly noting location as a plus.
Room Quality
8.2
Rooms are often described as spacious and comfortable with good beds; some issues reported include an uncomfortable pull-out sofa, an occasional bad odor, and carpet concerns which slightly reduce the score.
Amenities
8.9
Pool, hot tub and exercise room are repeatedly praised (hot tub and pool 'amazing' and used daily), though some note the pool is smaller than expected and the pool bottom was uncomfortable.
Value for Money
7.8
Mixed sentiment: many guests felt stays were good value, but several strong complaints about unexpected $200 deposit, delayed or withheld security deposit, and one report of paying over $1k and feeling it was not worth it lower this score.
Food and Beverage
9.4
Breakfast is consistently praised as very good, complete and a highlight for many guests (specific favorites mentioned); minor suggestions (waffle machine, variety) do not significantly detract.
Overall Experience
9
Overall guests frequently report pleasant stays, calling it a go-to hotel with great staff, clean facilities and enjoyable amenities; a minority of strong negative experiences (deposit dispute, overbooking) temper but do not dominate overall impressions.

Loved it here, my new go to Hotel when visiting.
Pros:

This was a beautiful place to stay. Breakfast was very good. The rooms were great, we had a BIG king room with pull out sofa ( which my teenage granddaughter said was a bit uncomfortable..they should update those) but she did have her own space with a separate TV. Pool and hot tub were amazing and we used them everyday. We would have extended our stay for a few more days but they couldn't accommodate us ...they told us they were booked so we moved to another not so nice location.. I would definitely stay at this location again and would recommend it !!

Cons:

Maybe just carry some "Things To Do Nearby " pamphlets...
