My stay was enjoyable and I would book the Vapes again. Staff was wonderful and breakfast was delicious.
Pros:

I really enjoyed waking up and being able to look out at the ocean. I was also impressed that with all the activities going on literally outside the hotel the noise level was minimal in the room.

Cons:

The beds were smaller than I expected. The bathroom area felt claustrophobic given the small space for the toilet and tub.

The perfect beach experience.
Pros:

Best hotel on the ocean front. Stayed at several different ones for the first few years visiting there before I found The Capes. I just finished year 7 of staying there and won't go anywhere else. Staff is friendly, location is perfect (center of the boardwalk), rooms are comfortable and perfect sized, view is breathtaking and the restaurant is the BEST!

Cons:

I don't like having to leave each year. I count down the days until I get to go back.

Not coming back
Pros:

Breakfast was ok, but the fruit was definitely leftover from a few days ago.

Cons:

I did not like the broken knob in the refrigerator that I could not adjust the temperature, there was black mold around the shower head, there was a patch of black mold in the ceiling over the bath tub that looked like a bad patch job, I did no like the fact the bathtub was very slippery and was told to put down a towel in the trunk to prevent slipping.
