First I will say the staff and service was excellent. Oceanfront and boardwalk view also great, nice comfortable beds as well. My only complaint is that the room looked a little worn, probably because it was the end of the summer season. We stayed in the spring and the room we had then looked better maintained. We will be back as I think it’s a good value for what you receive compared to other hotels in the area.
