Pros:

My kids loved the space of the room, the idea that they were able to drink hot chocolate at any time. I loved that they had coffee choices.

Cons:

We were in the first floor and the people staying in the second floor were too loud and too late, 2-3 AM to be exact. The shower area is one straight floor with only curtains and the water went all over the place that we had to used the towels to prevent the water to go outside the bathroom. The WiFi did not work.

Every staff member we encountered was EXTREMELY FRIENDLY.
Pros:

Friendly staff (everyone) LARGE rooms and nice balcony. The espresso machine in the breakfast area was FANTASTIC. Covered parking under the hotel was WONDERFUL

Cons:

The bathroom didn’t have any counter space. We had to bring a small table in from the bedroom.

I think the housekeeping staff is overwhelmed. It didn’t seem that a common area routine was in place. A simple walkthrough of those areas 2 or 3 times a day would have really improved the precaution of your hotel. On our floor (3rd) there were 2 rooms that had used towels and bagged garbage outside their doors the length of our entire stay. We noticed the elevator got progressively dirtier over our stay. It didn’t help that it was raining and muddy footprints kept building up.

A good choice for a last minute reservation. 👍🏼
Pros:

Clean, easy access to everything, nice room, and staff was very friendly.

Cons:

The fire alarm went off in the middle of the night. However, this was hardly the staffs fault. I’m assuming it was due to another guest as it was a false alarm.

One of the drawers in the dresser kept opening about an inch due to the bottom being uneven or the floor was slightly at a slant, I don’t know which.

Also, the footprint/distance between the toilet and bathroom door was so small you had to step all the way into the bathroom to shut the door, and I’m a fairly small person.

Again, none of the above was the fault of the staff. They were friendly, helpful, apologetic about the alarm (even though it was not their fault), and provided a clean welcoming environment and a fresh breakfast in the morning.

Pros:

Location to boardwalk was great, nice having breakfast ready.

Cons:

I wish we had a window to the outside instead of the hallway/lobby. No air flow, smelled kind of stagnant.

Pros:

Our room was very spacious.

Cons:

This facility was absolutely filthy. Garbage cans over stuffed in the hallways. Hallways, not vacuumed ,or dusted. The elevator was extreamly dirty. I asked if I could have someone come clean up the balcony in our room from the other guests. The floor was sticky and food was stuck on the furniture along with the tables not being wiped down. They came up and moved the furniture.

Beside the price which could be standard for such a hotel other thing was good.
Pros:

Our actual stay in the hotel was from 9 PM to 9 AM the next day. The most important point for us at any hotel is the cleanliness of the room and beds, and this was satisfactory.

Cons:

1-Breakfast 2-A small spa, not too clean 3-No sauna as advertised.

Pros:

It’s a good place to stay for couple of days. However I would prefer location closer to the ocean. Very friendly staff on the front desk.

Cons:

Everything was as described on website. Fridge, tv, 2 queen beds and a small couch.
