Overall, better than expected. Tub was in working order, spacious room.
Pros:

Location, room (whirpool tub), all amenities, view, staff were very personable (with exception of one female who seemed impatient) and accommodating when service needed.

Cons:

Lobby, common area near elevators constantly smelled of cigarette smoke.
No freezer or larger refrigerator, no desk, very small tv, difficult to completely open curtain without using broom handle or getting in the tub to reach, patio is weird shaped making it uncomfortable for two people.

Awesome time at the beach! We will be back!
Pros:

We love staying here as it is right at the surf break! Easy on and off the beach and quieter end of the beach and boardwalk! Staff is super friendly and would love to Thank them for the up grade in room with jet tub! My son loved the tub and watching waves while doing it!

Cons:

Constant smell of pot each time we exited the room to the parking lot! The elevator had a little glitch and would close but not go anywhere!
