We had a great week!
Pros:

Loved the proximity to the beach, boardwalk and restaurants. I loved that we didn’t have to drive anywhere as everything was within walking distance. The cottage was very, very clean and it fit my family of 6 very nicely.

Great little place to stay! Will definitely stay again!
Pros:

Staff was friendly. We were upgraded to an ocean view room. Love that there’s a fridge and stove. Location is perfect, close enough to walk to lots of things but far enough away for some peace when you want. Dunkin across the street was also a great perk!

Cons:

Parking lot was tight for a big truck.

Pros:

Close to the beach and on the boardwalk
It was very clean and comfortable close to everything, there is a Dunkin donuts and 2 restaurants right around the corner. Great service but a little deceiving with the ocean view since it wasn't in front of the ocean so I was disappointed on that matter

Pros:

Front desk staff were amazing and polite. However the rooms were completely unkept. Stains on the bed sheets and shower lining. Also there were multiple roaches and ants in the room.

Not worth it
Pros:

The area

Cons:

The balcony door wouldnt even open, older white lady was very rude because i asked for more towels and came into my room as if i was lying about not having a floor matt to step on in the bathroom which was reason i asked for more towels then gave my children a mean look, also bathroom had random hair stuck to sink, toilet was dirty under the seat comfortable stay but all the other stuff ruined the experience for me

Pros:

We stay jere annually as we traverse down south. It's not for people looking for a super modern hotel. It is retro lovely Mom&Pop owned hotel. No elevator. Refreshing pool to cool off after a hot day on the beach. Ocean is steps away, Dunkin donuts a few steps away and a really great Mexican restaurant locally owned around the corner on Pacific. The infamous Pocahontas Pancakr House is a couple blocks away for a very kitchy breakfast experience... very busy. The room can get a bit musty, as is the case dealing with a very humid summer. We love the balcony facing the ocean but not on the ocean.
