I had a mixed experience at this hotel. While the ocean view suite we stayed in was incredibly comfortable and clean, the long walk to the room across another building was a bit inconvenient. The service was excellent, with everyone being so helpful, but I did encounter some concerns regarding cleanliness in my other rooms. Overall, I loved the stay and would recommend it to friends, but I hope they improve on certain aspects for a truly fantastic experience.

I had a lovely stay at the hotel, with the rooms being exceptionally clean and fresh upon arrival. The service felt personal, especially with Brittney going above and beyond to celebrate my birthday. However, the dining was confusing at times with mixed-up orders. The location was also a mixed bag; while being close to many attractions, the noise at night was quite disruptive. Overall, it was a decent experience with a few bumps along the way.

My stay was quite disappointing due to the cleanliness and maintenance issues I encountered. The rooms were not as clean as I expected, with a lingering smell and unkempt air conditioning units. On the bright side, I appreciated the location, which was conveniently close to the boardwalk and various attractions, making it easier to explore the area. Overall, I felt the price was too high for the experience I received.

I recently stayed at this hotel, and while the location right on the boardwalk is fantastic and perfect for quick access to the beach, my experience was marred by serious cleanliness issues in the rooms. Despite the comfortable bed, I faced numerous problems with the service, including multiple room changes due to mold and dust. Overall, I was disappointed, especially given the price I paid for my stay.
