This hotel was great!! So close to the boardwalk and the wharf ! It was so fun to be able to take breaks with the kids and then go back out because this hotel was so close.

If you want quick access to the beach/boardwalk, you cannot beat this location. Loved that we were minutes away. The rooms were nice and loved the balcony. Also, make sure to take advantage of the rooftop deck to gain panoramic views of Beach Blvd. Staff was helpful and friendly. Would absolutely and will stay here again!
