My stay at the hotel was a bit mixed - the rooms were really big and clean, but unfortunately, there were some issues like a broken bed, bathtub, and end table leg. It wasn't exactly as advertised in the pictures and was quite close to the street.

Rooms
6.0
The rooms were spacious and seemed to have been recently renovated. However, I encountered a broken bed, a broken bathtub, and a broken end table leg, which was disappointing. The proximity to the street was a bit of a drawback.
Service
7.0
The service was top-notch with kind and professional staff. They were really friendly and helpful throughout my stay, but I did hear about some unfortunate incidents like broken beds and TVs, and unresponsive front desk staff.
Location
7.0
The location of the hotel was convenient, but not as close to downtown as I had hoped. It was around a 25-30 minute walk to the boardwalk, and while perfect for walking to downtown and the boardwalk, the nearby area seemed a bit sketchy.
Dining
5.0
The dining experience was more than adequate, with a good variety of options. However, the cooked food was subpar - not fresh, dry, and overly salty. Despite this, the hotel was close to the ocean and downtown, offering some convenience.
Facilities
6.0
The facilities were decent overall. However, there were reported issues like broken equipment in rooms, which affected the overall experience. The price for the stay didn't seem justified considering the conditions of the facilities.

The hotel is ideally located within walking distance to downtown and the boardwalk, surrounded by shops and restaurants. The rooms were spacious and staff was very friendly, though there was a mildew smell in the uncomfortable small room. Enjoyed the pull-out bed for our children but noticed a hole in the wall.

The hotel had beautiful rooms for a larger family, with a lovely breakfast, but the lack of windows to the outside was a bit frustrating. The service was pleasant and accommodating, though the small parking garage was a downside. The location was perfect, despite being along busy roads with some noise. The dining experience was very good with many choices. Overall, a nice stay with a few minor drawbacks.
