Relaxing and accessible to beach, convention center and attractions.
Pros:

Hotel's location to beach and attraction. Hotel cleanliness, amenities and friendliness of staff. Access to bike riding, discounted mini-golf on the premises plus access to the lounge area to watch the Knicks game.

Cons:

That the pool closes at 8pm. The sun is still out and the pool's landscape lighting goes under used and under appreciated.

We had a wonderful family vacation with great amenities and would happily stay here again!
Pros:

The hotel was clean, family-friendly, and in a great location close to the boardwalk and beach. The staff was friendly, and we enjoyed having access to the pool. One of our favorite perks was that guests could use beach chairs and bicycles for free during their stay, as long as they were returned afterward. It was a great place for our family vacation.

Cons:

The walk to the beach was a bit long, and to the attractions in the boardwalk. The parking could sometimes be limited because it’s a first come first serve . Other than that, we had a pleasant stay.

I liked the location, the cleanliness, and the pool just to name a few things.

Great little place to stay
Pros:

Great location, well kept, friendly, nice rooms, very cozy. We stayed in the petite room in a separate house and it was so delightful. It was a really normal sized room and had a private balcony which I wasn't expecting.

Cons:

They said we can only take the bike for an hour so we opted not to. I'll just bring my own next time.

Underwhelmed
Pros:

Location, front desk lady was nice.

Cons:

Door frame looked like it had been kicked in. Did not feel secure. I was worried a little about that. Bed was also not very comfortable and both the tub and sink drained very slow.
