I was pretty happy with our stay and I would stay there again.
Pros:

The location was fantastic. You are located right next to the beach and the boardwalk. The room was nice and comfortable. The hotel was attractive and the check-in and check-out process was smooth.

Cons:

I do wish breakfast had been offered, or bare minimum coffee and water to fill our water jugs. The first staff member that checked us in was fine, but she was not "friendly." The woman who checked us out was amazing.

Pros:

I liked how the staff was very friendly. And the room was very clean.

Cons:

I didn't see a mini fridge or anything to put our food in for saving. They also had only one xlarge towel ready for us. But not for two people.

Loved it!
Pros:

My second time staying here, I'll stay here every time when im in the area!

Cons:

The people above us were very loud, through the night and that is annoying. Also the light on the smoke alarm is bright, and right over the bed is there a way to dim it or divert the flash?
